View in browser This week we're highlighting the second part of my conversation with Phil Skiba, who was gracious enough to share such personal details of what it's been like to work in medicine throughout the pandemic. He volunteered to work at the frontlines in 2020 before turning to treating athletes and others who now, months after their initial infection with COVID-19, still aren't okay. He's so open about the frustration and burnout that he's facing and that are so common right now in the medical field. I found it moving, and I hope you enjoy the interview. It's available on YouTube and on major podcast apps under "Inside Science Conversations." You can also find it by following this link .
