Zedu Weekly Wrap – 23 September 2022
It’s been two public holidays in a row here…

one to recognise the death of the Queen, another to celebrate a football final. While both topics can be divisive, if one thing will bring Aussies together it’s a holiday!
Another thing that brings us together is the ultrasound news 🙂 – holidays don’t stop us…
Highlights this week to check out include a research paper by Aidan Baron (@Aidan_Baron) ‘The Sonographic OODA Loop: Proposing a beginner’s model for learning point-of-care ultrasound’, a webinar from our UK friend Stuart Wildman (@swildmanphysio) on POCUS in musculoskeletal physioptherapy practice, and a reminder of the amazing free teaching resources made available by US educator extraordinaire Ernest Fischer (@EAFischer).
Plenty to keep the POCUS enthusiast busy.
See you next week.

In the words of a previous participant – it’s meta! We’re running this internationally recognised course in Australia for the first time in July and October – don’t miss out.
