Applying Evolutionary Medicine to Emergency Medicine: Dr. Joe Alcock
Manage episode 340448375 series 2820606
Today we have guest Dr. Joe Alcock here to tell us about his journey and life experiences as an emergency room physician and researcher in evolutionary medicine. We will begin with his undergraduate at UCSB and how I met him, then discuss how he chose medicine as his career path. Throughout the whole episode we emphasize the role of evolutionary thinking in medicine and specifically how he thinks about issues he sees in the emergency room like sepsis. He completed his MD at UCLA, and now works at the University of New Mexico as a teacher and physician. He covers why he chose emergency medicine and how he avoids burnout in such an intense job. Lastly, we spend a great deal of time talking about microbes and the microbiome's effect on immune function, his research in this area as well as his thoughts on the evolution of sepsis.
