"The reality is, and the catchy way to remember it is, 'If it needs a sign, it's bad design.' You see a teakettle, and you immediately know how to use it. " —Gregory Khodorov, MD, MBA

As part of a new series from the SIR Medical Student Council (MSC) Biodesign Committee, hosts Eleanor Lee, MPH, and Savraj Saggu speak with Gregg Khodorov, MD, MBA, on identifying problems to solve in interventional radiology, how to recognize bad design and more.

Note: Submissions for the committee's next biodesign competition will be due on Jan. 15, 2024. Watch for more details in the SIR Connect RFS Community.
