Healthy Discussions

Dr Zack Hassan

Gouvernement

Fréquence : 1 épisode/62j. Total Éps: 22

Healthy Discussions brings you topical deep dives with expert guests, on healthcare, politics, society and religion. Hosted by Dr Zack Hassan, a medical registrar (hospital physician) who has debated at the illustrious Cambridge Union, each conversation blends science with argument in a way that goes far beyond traditional media. The aim is to educate, debate, and make it fun. But most importantly, to demonstrate that freedom of speech and debate can be a tool for finding the strongest reasons to change our minds, not just a tool for polarisation.

22 | We need Health Creators, not just the NHS | Lord Nigel Crisp

samedi 29 juin 2024 • Durée 01:01:11

Lord Nigel Crisp is the expert when it comes to our health service: because he was Chief Executive of NHS England and Permanent Secretary of the Department of Health simultaneously, during Tony Blair's government.

A graduate in philosophy from Cambridge, he released his book "Health Is Made At Home: Hospitals are for Repairs." This insightful book calls for a rethink of healthcare, and highlights the local organisations that mean people won't need expensive healthcare in future.

In this episode, Nigel brings warmth and positivity to the conversation. He and Zack discuss how health creation is promoted by community groups, the importance of a sense of control, how perverse incentives prevent health creation in our system, and how to realign government, politics and healthcare to build a truly health society.

21 | Will AI Really Transform Healthcare? | Professor Andrew Elder

Saison 4 · Épisode 3

vendredi 21 juin 2024 • Durée 54:57

Professor Andrew Elder is a doctor, first and foremost. He is a Consultant in Medicine of the Elderly at NHS Fife, and President of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh. He was previously Medical Director of the world-standard membership exam, MRCP, and is a Visiting Professor at Stanford University.

In this episode, we discuss if Medical AI can live up to the hype, what humans still do better, the ideal division of labour between AI and humans, the problem of black boxes, how education of physicians may need to change. We also think about policy, about who is driving these changes, and who will be liable when, rather than if, mistakes happen.

12 | Cameron Wyllie | What is stopping us closing the attainment gap in our education system?

Saison 2 · Épisode 2

mercredi 2 février 2022 • Durée 56:23

Mr Cameron Wyllie is an authority on education. He has been an English teacher, International Schools Debating coach, and Principal (Head) of Scotland's highest achieving private school of this decade, George Heriot's School.
In this conversation, Zack talks to one of his old teachers, Mr Wyllie to discuss Scotland's poverty-related attainment gap. We touch on the success (or rather, lack of it) of Scotland's flagship education policy, the so-called "Curriculum for Excellence", explore the reasons for the lack of appetite in the SNP to fix the problems with its implementation, and discuss what steps might actually close the gap..
We also ask how to make sure every child achieves their potential in education, whether teaching critical thinking skills improves public debate, and how this all ties in to broader discussions around Scottish Independence.

11 | Amatey Doku | Wokeness in Britain: How do we resolve the culture wars?

Saison 2 · Épisode 1

mercredi 19 janvier 2022 • Durée 56:42

Amatey Doku is a management consultant for the Nous Group. Born in London and of Ghanian heritage, he spent 2 years involved in the National Union of Students, as Vice-President then Deputy President, and before that he led the Cambridge Union Students' Union (CUSU) and the Jesus College Students' Union (JCSU).

During his time as JCSU President, Amatey campaigned for the College to repatriate the Okukor, a Benin Bronze statue. It had held pride of place in the main hall of Jesus College, Cambridge, since being looted from Benin in 1897. Initially reluctant, the College formally handed over the Okukor to representatives of the Nigerian government in October 2021.

A dedicated sticky toffee pudding enthusiast, Amatey has also shown dedication in his side-quest to review every sticky toffee pudding he eats on Twitter.

In this episode of Healthy Discussions, Zack and Amatey discuss the surrounding culture wars, how to move past culture wars, the dearth of political leadership in the UK, whether the UK is prepared for Prince Charles to take the throne after the death of the Queen Elizabeth II, and what's needed to bring the country together.

Saison 1 · Épisode 9

vendredi 12 novembre 2021 • Durée 01:11:29

Dr Abdullah Albeyatti is CEO of Medicalchain, a company tackling a big problem in healthcare. They want your electronic healthcare record to follow you around the health system and be under your control. Currently, healthcare data doesn't easily communicate between hospitals, creating all kinds of havoc.

In this podcast, Abdullah and Zack discuss the use of blockchain technology for health records, the attitude of NHS decision makers towards innovation, whether EHRs should be monetised and marketised, the potential advantages and drawbacks if decentralised health records become a reality, the attitude you need to become a surgeon or entrepreneur; and more!

Abdullah gives helpful anecdotes and tips along the way and I chip in with my thoughts on the underlying trends.

6 | Dolly Theis | How is government influenced on Obesity Policy?

Saison 1 · Épisode 6

mercredi 9 juin 2021 • Durée 43:01

Dolly Theis is not your usual public health policy academic. She stood as a Conservative Party candidate in the 2017 general election, winning 10,000 votes in Vauxhall. As a One-Nation Tory, Dolly has also campaigned on environmental and food issues. She has also been involved with initiatives like 50:50 Parliament (for gender balance in Westminster) and the veteran's charity Forward Assist.

She is undertaking a PhD at Cambridge University’s MRC Epidemiology Unit, researching how policy makers use evidence and the processes that influence change in public health.

In this conversation, Zack and Dolly find points of agreement on health and obesity policy despite coming from different political perspectives, and discuss the grit and thought needed to refine your political beliefs early in life, especially in response to criticism. They also explore the different levers government has to improve our health, why a different approach to policymaking would be advantageous, and how to create a world where research and policy are fully integrated with each other.
