Generation Rx: One Hour Special
We received incredible response from you about our recent town hall "Generation Rx- The Use and Abuse of Prescription Pain Medication" and today you can hear a special one hour version of the discussion.
Canada is one of the world's top per capita users of prescription narcotics. In Ontario alone, prescriptions for drugs containing oxycodone have risen 900 per cent since 1991. These painkillers can be highly addictive, and deadly if misused.
Dr. Brian Goldman hosts this town hall recorded at Brockville Collegiate Institute in Brockville, Ontario. You'll hear from a panel of experts who are working to address the problem of narcotic drug abuse. And you'll also hear members of the audience share their experiences, or the experiences of their loved ones, with prescription drugs.
You can read more about our panelists here.
Tune in to CBC Radio One today at 5pm (5:30 pm NT). Or click below to listen now or download the podcasts (Part 1 and Part 2):

Inspiration Show
This week, let's put you and me in a holiday mood with stories around the general theme of inspiration -- what inspires people on my side of the gurney to do what we do and a bit about what inspires you. Med student and blogger Erin Sullivan talks about her medical hero: a remarkable physician who reached forward two generations to inspire Erin to become a healer herself. I chat with a hero of mine: a celebrated ER physician from Cape Breton who schools me on how to make better doctors by getting them to sing their way through med school. And, we meet a second year medical student who battled a serious form of cancer by painting it.

A century ago, medical students studied liberal arts in addition to medical subjects like anatomy. But, with scientific and technological progress more and more courses like pharmacology and clinical medicine crowded out the medical school curriculum.
