Centre for Medical Education, Queen's University Belfast School of Medicine Dentistry and Biomedical Sciences, Belfast, UK.
Background: Introducing medical students to the concept of Cultural Humility, we devised a teaching initiative for students to consider how power manifests through the use of language in clinical communication, with a focus on General Practice. Cultural Humility is a pedagogical framework, introduced by Tervalon and Murray-Garcia, to address what they consider as the limitations of the Cultural Competence model.
Approach: Our teaching initiative specifically focused on power in clinical communication, both oral consultations and written notes.

Repair and reconstruction of the myopectineal orifice area using meshes is the mainstay of surgical treatment of inguinal hernias. However, the limitations of existing meshes are becoming increasingly evident in clinical applications; thus, the idea of using three-dimensionally (3D)-printed biological meshes was put forward. According to the current level of the 3D printing technology and the inherent characteristics of biological materials, the direct use of the 3D printing technology for making biological materials into finished products suitable for clinical applications is not yet supported, but synthetic materials can be first printed into 3D form carriers, compounded with biological materials, and finally made into finished products.

Hastings Cent Rep
January 2024
This essay looks closely at metaphors and other figures of speech that often feature in how Americans talk about dementia, becoming part of cultural narratives: shared stories that convey ideas and values, and also worries and fears. It uses approaches from literary studies to analyze how cultural narratives about dementia may surface in conversations with family members or health care professionals. This essay also draws on research on a notable social effect of legalizing medical aid in dying: patients may find it easier to bring up a range of concerns, regardless of whether they have any interest in hastening their own death.
