From Bench To Bedside takes the listener on a journey through the history of diseases, medical discovery, and modern therapeutic development. The field of medicine and science are inextricably intertwined. PhDs are indeed the first "doctors" predating MDs by hundreds of years. As the body of knowledge has grown the specialties have necessarily diverged but are reliant on each other for translation of science into medical treatments. Host Dr. Melanie Matheu (PhD) highlights the stories of scientific and medical collaboration that have brought us the breakthroughs of the past and discusses the ones we will need in the future.
