Chris is a Kiwi emergency physician (FACEM) currently completing his intensive care fellowship (FCICM) in Australia. Together with Mike Cadogan he runs the Lifeinthefastlane.com website and is committed to free open access meducation (FOAM) that is available to anyone, anywhere at anytime. He is particularly passionate about the intersection of emergency medicine and intensive care, and is on the editorial board of EM Critical Care. His other medical interests include toxicology, tropical medicine, medical history, clinical epidemiology and Osleriana. An avowed Oslerphile, Chris naturally agrees with Sir William when he said: “No bubble is so iridescent or floats longer than that blown by the successful teacher.” He just wishes he was better at blowing bubbles… This is what iTeachEM is all about! @precordialthump - Contact |
