Open Access Medical Journals

Interview with David Menkes an academic physican who works for the University of Auckland and is based here in Hamilton. We talk about Open Access Medical Journals and what an important role they play in the medical profession today. We also talk about Digital Literacy, and strategies on determining reliable sources vs. ones that may have commercial interests unduly biasing their content.

David recommends some good sources of information:
