Medical News Material for Interviews 2012 entry (NO DISCUSSION)

Strictly no discussion! (For discussion click here to go to CraigKirk's thread)
Hi all,

In preparation for interviews at medical schools I created a TSR wiki article to gather Medical news material. I am aware that some threads regarding this issue already exist, but I would like to gather a large amount of reading material in one place.

The article is here: http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/wiki/Medical_News_Material_for_Interviews_2012_entry

If you're familiar with wiki-editing then you may insert your article yourself, if not then please post it below in the following format and someone will do it for you.

Example:

Article name: NDM-1 superbug enzyme's 'photofit' taken
URL: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-14788046
Date (dd mmm yyyy): 06 Sep 2011
Newspaper: BBC News
Category: Pathology

Category can be anything from:

Cancer

Diseases

Enzymes

Health care

Mental Health

Pathology

Stem cells

Technology

Vaccines

Other


Note that if there is an article that does not fit into any of the above categories and you feel that there should be another category to fit in more appropriately, please do specify that category name.

Good luck!
