CEREBROSPINALECTOMYSpeaking & grand rounds
Humor and humanity in neurology, delivered by a board-certified neurologist and academic faculty member who also happens to run this universe. The jokes are the vehicle; the accuracy is the point.
Formats
- Keynote
- Forty-five to sixty minutes for a conference, society meeting or hospital event. The cast makes appearances.
- Grand rounds
- The academic version: a real teaching hour with the comedy doing the work of the mnemonic. Neurology, medicine, emergency medicine and sports medicine departments.
- Residency retreat or wellness session
- Call nights, the system, and why laughing at it is not the same as giving up on it.
- Virtual
- Any of the above over video, with the reels doing what slides cannot.
Topics
- The brain is king. Neurology for non-neurologists: how to localize a lesion and why it matters even if you will never treat one.
- Humor and humanity in medicine. Why the jokes that survive a resident reading them are the ones that keep clinicians in the room.
- Sports neurology, the culture. "Shake it off," the sideline, the league, the protocol — satire of the system, never of the injured athlete.
- The EMR as comedy. Clinical informatics from the inside: ambient AI, patient-satisfaction dashboards, and the note nobody reads.
- Social media for clinicians without losing your license. How a pseudonymous medical comedy brand is built, checked and kept honest.
