AccessMedicine: 2 minute medicine

2 minute medicine was created in 2012 by Marc D. Succi, MD, a physician at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital.

Originally consisting of short, curated study summaries to help physicians stay abreast of new medical literature.

Summaries are organized in a “2 Minute Rundown" as one would typically give to colleagues on the hospital wards, and concentrate on the objective qualities of the study not the subjective conclusions. The focus is on selecting high-quality evidence in the form of systematic reviews, meta-analyses, randomized trials, as well as a small subset of the high-quality observational literature.

Sage Sayings of Dr. Andrew Taylor Still


"Osteopathy is a science that analyzes man and finds that he partakes of Divine intelligence. It acquaints itself with all His attributes."

"Osteopathy to me is a very sacred science. It is sacred because it is a healing power through all Nature."


Truhlar, Robert E. Doctor A.T. Still in the Living. Chagrin Falls, Ohio, 1950. p. 137, 139.
