Hey crew…

it’s been a big week of logistics, and having exercised our collective brain power, gone through hundreds of post-it notes and gone around the twist we have assembled the jigsaw that is the 2025 course calendar!

Many of you have been in contact for the 2025 calendar now that we are on the downhill leg of 2024, so it really has been priority one here at Zedu HQ. All the favourites are there, with plenty of dates to choose from. And don’t forget – if there’s an ultrasound topic that we don’t schedule but that you would like to cover (eitehr individually or as a small group) get in touch – we can always help.

In general news out and about this week, check out:

• the latest “Block it like it’s hot” (@BlockIt_Hot_Pod) from Amit Pawa (@amit_pawa) and Jeff Gadsden (@jeffgadsden) (17 July)
• Zoltan Gyorgyi (@drZoltanGyorgyi) and team have published in Paediatrics and Child Health – “How we use point-of-care ultrasound in a paediatric critical care unit: scanning everything, everywhere, all at once” (16 July)

Make 2025 your year of ultrasound and check out our range of
scheduled and one-on-one options that will get you scanning like a pro.

Off to finish another jigsaw now…

See you next time
