S7 E4: Social Media & Cognitive Development; Urine vs Smear for HPV; Tai Chi vs CBTi For Sleep

Welcome to the Hot Topics podcast from NB Medical with Dr Neal Tucker. In this episode, we have three new and interesting research papers to look at. First, new data on the effects of social media use and cognitive development in younger adolescents . Is it really a problem? Second, can a simple urine sample be as accurate as a smear test for identifying cervical HPV , and what do women feel about this? Finally, if you're struggling to sleep could Tai chi be better than CBT for insomnia ?
