PCOM Perspectives: From Chalkboards to Chatbots: The Evolution of Drug Education with Fred Goldstein

DEC 16, 202523 MIN

Description

For this episode, I sat down with Dr. Fred Goldstein, a professor of clinical pharmacology in the Department of Biomedical Sciences at PCOM, to talk about his decades of research examining the use of prescription medication to manage pain for postoperative patients, and how THC and CBD combinations can reduce discomfort in those with chronic neuropathic pain. We also discuss how the drug landscape has changed in Dr. Goldstein’s three-plus decades as an educator and how substance abuse and artificial intelligence have impacted the way pharmacology is taught.
