The Framework Podcast Dr. Katarina Miteva and Dr. Martin Kumm

Introducing an exciting new mini-series titled "I am a published author" within the Framework Podcast, where we explore peculiar research publications that are both “thought-provoking” in a way that you may not be expecting but for the very least entertaining! This mini-series perfectly aligns with our podcast's overarching mission, which seeks to address the abundance of scientific content in both the public sphere and academic publishing, focusing specifically on guiding our listeners can approach such incremental published work as critical-thinkers.

The health and fitness community is oversaturated with misinformation and wayward advice that leaves many struggling to find the correct and simple knowledge for their health and fitness journey. In the Framework Podcast, hosted by post-doctoral researcher Dr. Katarina Miteva and WorldTour Cycling sports chiropractor Dr. Martin Kumm, we aim to merge decades of academic and clinical knowledge to create a framework for solving common problems athletes or health-orientated people may encounter. The framework for better performance will be laid down through 5 pillars: Athleticism, Biomechanics, General Health, Recovery and Nutrition. 

Join our hosts, Martin and Kat, as they expertly dissect and question the hypothesis, research findings, and validity of a research paper exploring the causal relationship between low back pain and dried fruit intake. Can an increased consumption of dried fruit truly provide protection against low back pain?

In today’s fast paced society we have less and less time to develop important skills such as reading scientific literature, critical thinking and analysis of complex information. That’s why in Episode 1 (General Health), we focus on the often forgotten skill of reading research papers, the bread and butter of what our hosts do and the solid foundation of this podcast series. In this episode, you will learn from our hosts how to approach reading a scientific paper for maximum efficiency and knowledge acquisition, advice on how to gain expertise in a certain scientific field of your interest, and finally, easy and actionable tips on how to keep up with ever-growing cutting edge literature.
