Dean's Chat - All Things Podiatric Medicine

Dr. Peter Sorensen joins hosts Dr. Jeffrey Jensen and Dr. Johanna Richey for a wide-ranging conversation about artificial intelligence in podiatric education and practice. Recorded as Sorensen finishes his second year of residency at Ascension St. Vincent in Indianapolis, the episode traces his path from a college ankle fracture into the profession, through his early experiments with ChatGPT in 2022, and into the platform he now builds for students and residents.This episode is sponsored by Bako Diagnostics!The importance of using AI responsibly is Dr. Sorensen's main message. He and the hosts discuss how to let AI save time and sharpen thinking without quietly eroding the skills that make a good clinician and surgeon. Along the way the conversation turns to hallucinations and active learning, the risk of “de-skilling,” AI as a thought partner, and how these tools can lower the steep barrier to entry into organized podiatry.Sorensen started using ChatGPT the week OpenAI released it to the public in November 2022, while he was still in podiatry school. The early versions, he admits, let him down — they couldn't even browse the internet in real time — but he kept a running mental list of things he wished the tools could do. Over the last several months, he says, the capabilities finally caught up to those ideas.The most quoted idea in the episode is also its most countercultural: skepticism isn't a reason to avoid AI — it's the reason to use it. “I always tell people to always doubt the output of AI,” Sorensen says, because hallucinations are real. But that doubt, he argues, turns a passive user into an active learner. If something feels off, you go to the primary source, and modern tools are increasingly good at telling you where their claims came from.The hosts press on the harder question — cognitive offloading, or “de-skilling.” Dr. Richey makes the point that real learning has to be a little hard: “We can't biohack knowledge, but we can make it more accessible.” She and Jensen return to a distinction they've discussed before — that knowledge is becoming a commodity in the palm of our hands, while wisdom is not. Sorensen agrees that the journey matters more than the destination, and that offloading every hard thing would leave the next generation unable to do the work. His answer isn't to abstain; it's to be intentional.Beyond time saved, Sorensen describes the use case he now values most: a thought partner. Claude, he says, is his go-to here — a soundboard that helps him clarify what he actually thinks while keeping the ideas his own. As a senior resident beginning to form his own positions on patient care and professional politics, he finds the tools useful for clearing mental clutter and organizing scattered thoughts into something coherent.He speaks from recent experience. Through the APMA Emerging Leaders Program, he traveled to Washington, D.C., to advocate on Capitol Hill, and came away struck by the tireless, often-underappreciated work that actually moves the needle — including the efforts of APMA staff. Attending the House of Delegates as a young physician observer was, he says, one of his most eye-opening experiences, and also where he started using Claude in earnest, to make sense of what he was watching.About Dr. Peter SorensenPeter Sorensen, DPM, MHA, is a podiatric surgery resident at Ascension St. Vincent in Indianapolis. He earned his DPM and MHA from Des Moines University (graduating in 2024) and holds a BA in Spanish from Southern Utah University; he previously worked as a medical Spanish interpreter. He is a member of the APMA Emerging Leaders Program and served on the APMA Re-imagining Education Task Force. He is the publisher of The Guidewire, where he writes about artificial intelligence in podiatric medicine and works to lower the barrier to entry into the profession for students and residents.

Pro Wrestlers, Polygamy Wealth, & Gnosticism: Unpacking MHA Highlights in Las Vegas (Rick B)

I did a livestream recap of the Mormon History Association (MHA highlights) conference, broadcast straight from my hotel room in lovely Las Vegas. Guided by some slightly out-of-order, AI-generated slides, this recap covers the most fascinating historical deep dives, unexpected gems, and award winners from the weekend. https://youtube.com/live/wy_-u8OCLMs Unexpected MHA Highlights & Gems: Pro Wrestling and Gnosticism One of the absolute standout presentations explored “The Mormon Giant,” Don Leo Jonathan, a 6’6″ pro wrestler active from the 1930s to the 1960s. Early in his career, he played up a “weird” and radical polygamist trope—complete with an unkempt beard and a live snake he claimed was from the Garden of Eden. However, to aid the Church’s PR shift toward mainstream assimilation in the 1950s and 60s, he transitioned to a clean-shaven, patriotic hero. Surprisingly, President David O. McKay, who was apparently a wrestling fan, actually authorized this PR gimmick to help mainstream the Church. Suprprisingly, his career ended via injury when he spun 7 foot tall Andre the Giant and injured his back in 1980, ending his wrestling career. Another surprise gem of the conference was a presentation by Mike Lemon on the “Temple of the Pearl,” a modern-day fringe group blending Mormon priesthood and eternal marriage with Gnosticism, chakras, yoga, and an androgynous double godhead. Mike LeCheminant, a dentist from Houston, TX gave an amazing presentation and I hope to get him on the podcast soon to talk more about this free love polygamist group. Politics, Welfare, and the New Deal MHA Highlights Several scholars provided a deep dive into the Church’s 1930s resistance to FDR’s New Deal, noting how leaders created their own welfare system driven by theological self-sufficiency to “supplant the dole” and discredit Roosevelt. Historian Matt Harris highlighted Hugh B. Brown, a vocal Democrat and trusted confidant of Heber J. Grant, who supported FDR’s programs. Brown faced severe backlash for taking the chairmanship of the state liquor commission after prohibition’s repeal, a controversial move that delayed his call to the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles by decades. We also learned about Senator Elbert Thomas, who defeated Apostle Reed Smoot in an election and applied his faith to international humanitarianism. Driven by the historical memory of 19th-century Latter-day Saint persecution, Thomas partnered with Jewish activists to force FDR to create a board that ultimately saved 200,000 Jewish lives. Finally, MHA President Ben Park delivered an address on Cleon Skousen’s massive political influence, explaining how Skousen tied Mormon agency to free-market capitalism and popularized works like The Naked Communist among conservative evangelicals through careful “code-switching.” Reevaluating Settler Colonialism & Science MHA Highlights Elise Boxer gave a powerful presentation challenging traditional “manifest destiny” pioneer narratives. She urged an indigenous lens to view Mormonism as a vehicle for US colonial expansion, pointing to the “This is the Place” monument as a visual example of reducing Native Americans to a marginalized backdrop. In the realm of 20th-century history, Steven Peck discussed BYU biologist Duane Jeffery’s 1970s push for evolutionary biology. Jeffery faced severe backlash and potential termination from Ezra Taft Benson in the 1980s, but was defended by current President Dallin H. Oaks, who decreed that the university must not censor truth or assume faith is too fragile for scientific reality. Polygamy Economics and Early Records MHA Highlights Our on Mary Ann Clements presented fascinating research examining the economic factors behind early plural marriage using Nauvoo tax records. She highlighted how leaders like Brigham Young may have strategically pursued women from wealthier families, such as Martha Brotherton, who famously refused a marriage proposal from Young at age 17 and was locked in a room at the Red Brick Store. Additionally, Cheryl Bruno announced the thrilling discovery of an 1854 list of Joseph Smith’s plural wives. This crucial document pushes the timeline of documented lists to just a decade after his death, earlier than the famous Thomas Bullock list. Award/MHA Highlights The conference also celebrated major contributions to the field of Mormon history. Posthumous honors went to Ardis Parshall, who received the Public History Award for her work championing the unheralded stories of everyday members. George D. Smith received the Arrington Award for fostering independent research as the co-founder of Signature Books, and Elise Boxer took home the Indigenous Studies Award for her book on Mormon settler colonialism. Did you go? What are your thoughts? Next year, John Turner will lead the conference as new MHA president in Provo, Utah. (Las Vegas to Provo is definitely a 180 in environment. I was surprised when a conference attendee was propositioned by a woman offering to make his night memorable. Clearly she didn’t care that most MHA attendees frown on such things. I don’t expect that to happen in Provo!) 00:00:02 Introduction & Welcome 00:04:17 Awards Ceremony (Friday Night) 00:08:34 New Deal & Hugh B. Brown Discussion 00:12:33 Mormon Settlement in Nevada 00:16:22 Mormon Settler Colonialism 00:20:33The Mormon Giant (Don Leo Jonathan) 00:24:40 Latter-day Saint Eloquence & Speaking 00:29:05 Canonization & Doctrine & Covenants 00:33:30 Saturday Sessions Overview 00:37:43 Polygamy in Nauvoo 00:41:50 Economic Factors in Plural Marriage 00:45:41 Earliest Plural Wife Lists 00:49:39 Ben Park’s Presidential Address (Cleon Skousen) 00:53:42 Evolution & BYU (Duane Jeffrey) 00:57:50 Gnostic Mormon Offshoot (Temple of the Pearl) 1:01:59 Final summary From deep dives into 20th-century political clashes to the surprising intersections of theology and wrestling, this MHA conference proved that Mormon history is vibrant, complex, and full of ongoing discoveries.

Tá na Iosraelaigh ag seoladh trúpaí isteach sa Liobáinchomh maith, agus iad ag rá go bhfuil siad ag iarraidh crios maolánach a chruthú idir Iosrael agus forsaí Hezbollah.

Hennepin Healthcare operates one of Minnesota's largest and most essential hospitals, HCMC, formerly known as Hennepin County Medical Center. And it's not in good health.The hospital provides emergency trauma and burn care to patients from across Minnesota and trains more than a third of the region's future doctors.But that mission comes at a cost. The public hospital serves more low-income and uninsured patients than other hospitals, leaving it especially vulnerable as federal Medicaid cuts take hold and the number of uninsured Minnesotans rises. Add in other mounting financial pressures, and leaders say the system is being pushed to the brink.HCMC has already eliminated 100 positions, reduced services and is now seeking sales tax revenue just to stay afloat.MPR News host Angela Davis talks with her guests about the financial crisis at HCMC, why other hospitals are also struggling and some possible solutions. Guests: Jan Malcolm was appointed by Gov. Tim Walz as his senior adviser on hospitals and health systems. She served as Minnesota's health commissioner under three governors, stepping down in 2023 after guiding the state's response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an t-aonú lá ‘s fiche de mhí an Mhárta. Is mise Alanna Ní Ghallachóir.Thug Gerry Adams fáilte roimh “dheireadh láidir” ar éileamh damáiste san Ard-Chúirt i Londain, a tharraing triúr íospartach d'ionsaithe de chuid an IRA Sealadach ina choinne. Mhaígh na héilitheoirí go raibh Adams faoi dhliteanas pearsanta i leith na ngorthuithe a bhfuair siad sna hionsaithe i Londain agus i Manchain in 1973 agus 1996. Dé hAoine, ar lá dheireanach na trialach, a mhair coicís, dhearbhaigh dlíodóirí na n-íospartach go raibh an t-éileamh in aghaidh iar-uachtarán Sinn Fein “scortha … gan ordú ar bith maidir le costas.” Tar éis an fhógra, chuir Adams ráiteas amach ag preasócáid i mBéal Feirste ag rá gur fhreastail sé ar an triail le meas a léiriú do na h-íospartaigh agus leis féin a chosaint “in aghaidh na smál agus na gcúiseamh fánach a cuireadh i mo choinne.” Cuireadh deireadh leis an triail tar éis naoi lá d'éisteachtaí os comhair an Bhreithimh Swift san Ard-Chúirt i Londain. Bhí an lámh in uachtar ag an scéinséir polaitiúla One Battle After Another ag na hOscars i mbliana, le sé bhua agus an pictiúr is fearr aige san áireamh. Bhuaigh an tÉireannach Jessie Buckley a céad Oscar ar son a róil mar bhean William Shakespeare, atá trína chéile tar éis bhás a mic atá aon bhliain déag d'aois. “Is rud ar leith é seo,” a dúirt Buckley. Ag trácht ar Lá na Máithreacha, ag deireadh a hóráide glactha, thiomnaigh sí a hOscar do “anord galánta chroí na máthar …. Go raibh míle, míle maith agat.” I measc na mbuaiteoirí eile, fuair an t-aisteoir Michael B Jordan ón scannán Sinners duais an aisteora is fearr, agus ba í Autumn Durald Arkapaw an chéad bhean ariamh ar bronnadh an duais cineamatagrafaíochta uirthi, mar gheall ar a hobair ar an scannán Sinners. Tráthnóna Dé hAoine, d'fhreastail na céadta daoine ar shochraid an cheoltóra Dolores Keane i gContae na Gaillimhe. Chuaigh an t-amhránaí ar shlí na fírinne agus í ina teach féin i nGaillimh Dé Luain seo caite, agus í 72 d'aois. Beidh cuimhne uirthi go deo mar dhuine den chór neamhaí guthanna ar an albam A Woman's Heart ó 1992, in éineacht le Eleanor McEvoy, Mary agus Frances Black, Sharon Shannon, agus Maura O'Connell.

Health care inclusivity is more than a framework, it's a daily practice that shapes learning, teamwork, and patient outcomes. In this episode of HPNA's Palliative Perspective, Jill, Vanessa, and Jenn—longtime collaborators in nursing professional development and creators of Disruptor Diaries—explore what health care inclusivity truly means across education, clinical practice, and the workforce.  Drawing from lived experience in cardiovascular, neuro-trauma ICU, emergency nursing, home health, and hospice and palliative care, the guests discuss inclusive and active learning environments, the importance of belonging, and how thoughtful, aware interactions can transform both professional development and patient care. They also share the “why” behind their self-published learning guide Healthcare Education: Strategies for Inclusive Learning, created to fill a critical gap in healthcare education during a complex political and organizational landscape.  This conversation invites listeners of all roles to reflect: Am I creating an inclusive environment? What is important to this person? And why does inclusivity matter now more than ever?      Jillian Russell, MSN, RN, NPDA-BC®  Jillian is a nursing professional development specialist dedicated to upholding and advancing the Nursing and Nursing Professional Development Scope and Standards of Practice.

With a nursing background, she recognizes the vital need for inclusive learning environments that support all  healthcare professionals, regardless of their setting. Jenn brings a thoughtful, learner-centered approach to professional development.
