Divine Intervention Episode 28 – Antibiotics Part 2 (Protein Synthesis Inhibitors).

In this episode of the Divine Intervention Podcasts, I discuss essentially all exam testable information related to the protein synthesis inhibitors. I discuss relevant microbiology and associated information relating to other fields (especially GI and some psych references). No slides attached.

Divine Intervention Episode 27 – Antibiotics Part 1 (Cell Wall Inhibitors)

In this episode of the Divine Intervention Podcasts, I discuss the vast majority of the USMLE pertinent information relating to the penicillins and all other cell wall inhibitors (cephalosporins, drugs covering Pseudomonas and S. Aureus, Aztreonam, Vancomycin, Aminopecillins, etc). There’s also some limited micro, pathology, heme, and immunology information discussed here. No slides attached since all the information is in the podcast.

Divine Intervention Episode 20 – Autonomic Pharmacology Part 2.

In this episode, I continue our discussion of the USMLE relevant material pertinent to Autonomic Pharmacology. There’s a lot of time devoted to associated pathology and other testable exam information. There are no slides attached. All you need is in the podcast.

Divine Intervention Episode 18 – Autonomic Pharmacology Part 1.

In this episode of the Divine Intervention Podcasts, we discuss autonomic pharmacology. This is often a difficult subject for people but it is actually fun and easy to understand with a “scenario based approach”. It is also HY to know this material for all the USMLEs and clinical practice/3rd year. This first part focuses on the physiology of the ANS (including receptors) and an integration of multiple pathologies (and other systems). My primary discussion of the drugs (in addition to their pharmacological mechanism of action) is a focus on “How can this be tested”?. This tends to be a more useful learning format. There are no attached slides as all necessary information is in the podcast.

Divine Intervention Episode 14-Comprehensive Immuno Pharmacology and The Monoclonal Alphabet.

In this episode, I discuss all the drugs that are tested in the context of Immunology for The USMLE Step 1 exam. I also go over all the monoclonal antibodies that are tested on the exam (basically every monoclonal that is found in First Aid for The USMLE Step 1, 2018). I discuss the mechanism of action and other HY tidbits related to these monoclonals. There are no slides for this podcast (all you need is in the recording).

Divine Intervention Episode 10 – Comprehensive GI Pharmacology.

This podcast essentially covers all the GI Pharmacology that is tested on board exams (especially the USMLE Step 1). I try to integrate physiology and pathology. No slides attached but all the information you need is in the podcast.

Divine Intervention Episode 8 – Comprehensive Heme Pharmacology.

In this podcast, I discuss essentially everything you need to know for any board exam (aka The USMLEs) relating to drugs that affect primary and secondary hemostasis. There’s a lot of integration with other pharmacology, a lot of physiology, and a lot of pathology. There are no attached slides (less useful for what I tried to accomplish with the podcast). All you need is clearly discussed.

Divine Intervention Episode 6 – 20 in about 20 minutes (Pharmacology Cases).

In this podcast, I highlight 20 cases geared primarily towards discussing pharmacology with some integration of biochemistry, pathology, physiology, and even some anatomy. All the best to M4’s tomorrow. Praying we all have good news!
