How do we teach clinicians where the resources for best evidence are?
Get PDFThe Sinai Health System (SHS) Library created an online tool kit that groups electronic resources into tiers based on the hierarchy of evidence, in a step-by-step approach. Mobile application options are available for most of the resources. The goal is to provide a simple, practical teaching tool to help clinicians easily find quality health information from the vast offerings of publishers. Since its publication in 2008, the original tool kit received positive feedback from medical students and in-house clinical staff. As well, the tool kit has been incorporated into the teachings of the Royal College of Surgeons and Physicians of Ontario, Ministry of Public Health, and various hospital and patient libraries across the Greater Toronto Area. The SHS Library encourages other libraries and institutions to adapt the tool kit for their users. In the future, this tool kit will be revised to tailor to the research needs of nursing and allied health staff
Artem Medicalis – My ouroboros journey in art and science
Get PDFArtistic scientific research is, I believe, one of the ways out of the cul-de-sac that modern art brought us into during the latter part of the twentieth century. By returning to serious scientific and anatomical study, doors opened to a new discipline altogether. My personal journey as a medical artist took me from scientific wonder and intense interest in alchemy, through artistic anatomical research, on to functional medical illustration and back to conceptual art and sculpture. Having completed a course in forensic facial reconstruction I developed the idea of making a reconstruction of Andreas Vesalius’s face. Thus, began a quest to find the lost grave of the great anatomist. We have not found it yet but have already changed history
Exploring the interface between biomedical sciences and the arts through the global sci/art network MEDinART
Get PDFMEDinART (www.MEDinART.eu) is a continuously growing global sci/art network that connects biomedical sciences with technology and arts through the work of more than 170 artists from 30 countries who are influenced by aspects of biomedical sciences. MEDinART aims are to unite the artists who are influenced by biomedicine, to connect different countries and cultures through the universal language of sci/art, and to globalise the biomedical-inspired art movement. Inspired and created by the Author, Vasia Hatzi, MEDinART explores the interface between biomedicine with arts through talks, exhibitions and articles in events, conferences and journals around the world. Here we present the goals of MEDinARΤ, its philosophy and the messages that it delivers to society through its activities
