    Dr. Jack Hughes celebrated his 100th birthday in November 2019, so he he had a lot to share with our oral historian, Joseph O'Connell.

    Bonus Episode: Nancy Andrews

    We're happy to announce that plans for season 2 are in the works! In the meantime, we thought Voices of Duke Health listeners might enjoy this vignette about Nancy C. Andrews, MD, PhD, produced by Joseph O'Connell. As a teenager, Dr. Andrews brought some unusual house guests back to her parents' home in upstate New York: 30 live horseshoe crabs. In this bonus episode, Andrews looks back on her early formation as a physician-scientist and her journey to becoming the first woman dean of a top ten medical school.

    Episode 14: The Lollipop Moments

    Tell Me Something Good—that’s the name of a weekly email Emily Depetris sends to her coworkers in the pediatric cardiac ICU. In the PCICU, they take care of really sick kids. So Emily wanted to give the PCICU staff a weekly reminder of the good things that come from their work—in the form of pictures of their patients playing in the park, dressing up for Halloween, and graduating from high school. Emily is joined by Anne Schmelzer, a nurse in the PCICU, to talk about why she started Tell Me Something Good, and how it’s brought joy and inspiration to the staff.
