Inspiration with Manda J: Remote and Polar Medicine
Season 2, Episode 94, Mar 08, 2021, 05:00 PM
Dr. Edi Albert, Associate Professor at the University of Tasmania and Director, Wilderness Education Group.
Edi started out both in medicine and outdoor pursuits in the highlands of Scotland. Following completion of rural GP training, a Masters degree in education and management, and a certain weariness of climbing, mountain running and skiing in heavy rain and strong winds, he headed off to Tasmania for a working holiday and 10 years later is still there. He works as a doctor in Antarctica and Perisher Valley, and more conventionally in emergency medicine in Hobart. Amongst many trips, he has been an expedition doctor and climber to Broad Peak in the Karakoram, and Pumori in the Nepal Himalaya. He has also sea kayaked high in the Canadian Arctic and, nearer home, across Bass Strait. He has had a wide ranging career in medical education, including as a Senior Lecturer in the Tasmanian School of Medicine during which time he was heavily involved in the design and development of a new five year medical course. His post-graduate education work has been focussed on rural and remote medicine, both locally, and at a national level with the Australian College of Rural & Remote Medicine, and most recently involved the development and delivery of the Expedition Medicine Program at General Practice Training Tasmania – a unique program in Australia from which has grown a suite of short courses. In 2007 he won the General Practice Education & Training “Medical Educator of the Year” Award. He continues to juggle his clinical and educational work with sea kayaking, rock climbing, mountain biking and skiing. Source: http://www.wfac.com.au/
