Connecting medical info with history helps memorization!
By Linda M. on 26. June 2019 for Porphyrias

Simply explained with a little history that made it fun and also helps keep the connection to the content, So much of medical knowledge is facts and figures which can easily become blurred in my mind. The connection to history helps this content stand out in my head! Thank you!
