Welcome back to our BTK/ASGBI Series! During this series, BTK fellow Agnes Premkumar and ASGBI hosts Jared Wohlgemut and Gita Lingam compare and contrast various aspects of surgery between the United States and the United Kingdom, debating who does what better.  In this episode, we delve into all things artificial intelligence (AI) within surgery. Both the US and the UK have unique approaches to managing AI within healthcare and our experts help break down these key similarities and differences. We will discuss what AI and machine learning means, what does regulation look like in both these regions, and how is AI being used in both these countries.  We are fortunate to have two representatives, Dr. Nelson and Dr. Larson, representing the US side. Dr. Nelson is a surgical oncologist working at the Brook Army Medical Center in San Antonio, he's very interested in expanding the role of AI within surgical education and beyond. Dr. Larson is a general surgery resident at the Mayo Clinic. She's currently in her research time and finishing up her master's degree in AI and studying the role of machine learning within surgical practice. We are fortunate to have Dr. Mukherjee representing the UK side. Dr. Mukherjee is a surgeon scientist alongside an Honorary Consultant General & Major Trauma Surgeon in Liverpool, England. He has a strong track record in research that spans the translational spectrum, with strengths in discovery science related to acute pancreatitis pathophysiology and mitochondrial injury, novel in vitro and in vivo experimental assay development and clinical translational research, including novel biomarker studies and clinical trials. He has won multiple awards, most recently the Hunterian Professorship 2024 from the Royal College of Surgeons of England.

Olympian Simone Biles recently opened up about it. Carlene has done it. And according to the latest polls, blepharoplasty is officially the #1 cosmetic surgery around the globe – surpassing liposuction, breast augmentation and even rhinoplasty.To help us uncover everything to know about the latest eye opening procedures, we tapped Toronto-based Oculoplastic Surgeon and Board-Certified Ophthalmologist Dr. Babak Maleki, who Carlene trusted with her own ptosis correction and upper eyelid blepharoplasty.

What happens when a life-or-death medical emergency unfolds at 35,000 feet… and there is a surgeon onboard? This week on The Red Eye, we bring you one of the most extraordinary true aviation stories ever to reach our inbox - a tale that was told to our writer not in a galley, bar or crew room, but in the side room of a hospital emergency department.While a surgeon was treating our writer's son for a collapsed lung, she casually mentioned a layover in New York and the surgeon froze. “I don't suppose you were on that famous flight where…” And with that, this story began.In Surgeon in the Skies, we take you back to Hong Kong, 1995, where a routine long-haul flight became an airborne operating theatre. With only a basic medical kit, a coat hanger, a knife and fork, repair tape, and a bottle of First Class brandy, two doctors, Professor Angus Wallace and Dr. Wong, performed an emergency surgicaln  procedure in the back row of a 747 - saving a passenger's life mid-flight.This gripping episode blends true aviation history, medical drama, and the incredible resourcefulness of cabin crew and passengers when the stakes couldn't be higher. No exaggeration: this remains one of the most legendary real in-flight medical events ever reported. And it's still studied by medical professionals today!If you love aviation stories, true survival tales, behind-the-scenes airline moments, and unbelievable but true emergencies, this is an episode you'll never forget.Send us a text!

This FIDF Live briefing features Lieutenant Colonel Nadav Shoshani, the international spokesperson for the IDF, who shares personal reflections on the war and the role of the IDF. Shoshani describes the emotional toll of the conflict and the intense responsibility of speaking to international media while soldiers and commanders fight on the ground. He emphasizes that many soldiers ask if the world still supports them, and he reassures them with stories of global Jewish solidarity, especially from American communities and FIDF supporters. He reflects on the difficult moments when soldiers are killed and the burden of conveying truth while the enemy uses manipulative tactics and hides among civilians. Shoshani also speaks about the moral and ethical challenges the IDF faces while operating in densely populated areas, and how maintaining the IDF's values is a core part of its mission. Despite the exhaustion and grief, he expresses deep pride in Israeli society and in the soldiers who have risen to the moment. He concludes by thanking listeners for their unwavering support, saying that every message, donation, and prayer makes a difference in both spirit and strength.

In this deeply human episode, Dr. Mark Bonta sits down with cardiac surgeon, scientist, and writer Dr. Paul Fedak for an honest look at the hidden cost of excellence in medicine. Dr. Fedak shares the story of the injury that forced him out of the operating room and into a profound reckoning with identity, purpose, and the culture of silence that surrounds clinician suffering.Drawing from years as Professor at the University of Calgary and Director of the Libin Cardiovascular Institute, he unpacks why perfectionism is so common in medical training, how surgeons learn to mask pain behind composure, and why emotional detachment has long been mistaken for professionalism. Together they explore the unseen burden clinicians carry, the pressure to perform without pause, and the moments when the mask finally cracks.Dr. Fedak speaks candidly about ego death, vulnerability, and rebuilding a life after losing the work that once defined him. He describes the colleagues who opened up only after he shared his own story, highlighting how connection and honesty can transform a profession built on quiet endurance.This episode examines the human side of medicine that rarely makes it into textbooks. Identity. Injury. Recovery. Presence. What it means to care for others while trying to stay whole yourself.A moving conversation for anyone in healthcare or anyone who has ever struggled with the weight of impossible expectations.Paul Fedak, MD, PhD's website : paulfedak.comEpisode Takeaways1. Surgeons are trained to push through pain, not acknowledge it.Medical culture rewards resilience and persistence, but that same conditioning prevents clinicians from recognizing and responding to their own injuries.2. Perfectionism is wired into medical training.Traits like list making, obsessive task completion, and performance under observation are common in medicine and often go unexamined despite their psychological cost.3. The mask of competence becomes automatic.Clinicians become so skilled at hiding distress that even close colleagues fail to notice warning signs. This silence leaves suffering invisible.4. Vulnerability creates connection and protects lives.When Dr. Fedak shared his story, dozens of peers came forward with their own hidden experiences. Openness is not weakness. It is safety.5. Ergonomic injuries in surgery are far more common than most people realize.The physical demands of operating are intense, yet surgeons lack the protections that other healthcare workers receive.6. Leadership shows the true burden physicians carry.Once in leadership roles, clinicians see the depth of burnout, fear, and quiet endurance happening behind the scenes.7. Losing the identity of “surgeon” creates an existential crisis.Stepping out of the operating room forced a complete reevaluation of purpose, ego, and self worth.8. Technical excellence is not the full measure of a doctor.Relational skill, empathy, presence, and human connection matter just as much as procedural skill.9. Medicine needs protected space for reflection.Without pause and presence, clinicians lose touch with themselves and the people they care for. Healing requires time, community, and grounding.10. System structures shape clinician wellbeing.The fee for service model rewards quantity over recovery, creating pressures that make self care feel impossible.11. Paying clinicians to care for themselves could change outcomes.If mental health visits, ergonomic care, and recovery time were compensated, more clinicians would seek help early.Episode Timestamps07:10 How one surgeon's work related injury forced a career pivot and a deeper conversation about wellbeing.08:25 The secret stories colleagues shared only after Paul opened up about his own suffering.10:30 Independent contractor status and why doctors lack the ergonomic protections nurses receive.13:00 The unseen emotional toll behind surgical careers and what leadership reveals about clinician suffering.16:00 Training teaches perseverance, but injury demands honesty.
