Closing Keynote – Expedition Medicine: From technical ability to Taoism
Drawing from 20 years of sailing experience from Baffin Island to Antarctica and much in between, this final presentation aims to wrap-up the conference with a final flourish of inspiration. We explore how a Medic may be of maximum utility in an expedition environment. Touching on both practical tips and existential considerations, and taking offshore sailing as an example, we hope that these additional skills maybe transferable to other domains of extreme medicine and augur well for your future careers.
