Dr Lara Wieland tells ACRRM’s Life Hacks how rural generalism prepared her for Ukraine — and how you can help build MedLearnUke.

An Australian doctor heads to war-torn Ukraine — and returns humbled, inspired, and slightly wiser about tourniquets (and Nemiroff).

Our final days in Ukraine: handing over the humanitarian van to CMA in Lviv, Lara’s soft skills medical conference, and an emotional farewell to Ukraine.

‘It’s just a door banging’—the coping mechanism for explosions. Mobile clinics, blackouts, and frontline medicine in war zones in Ukraine.

Google Maps nearly sent us into oncoming traffic. Then a Shahed drone hit 900m away. Just another week teaching doctors in Kharkiv’s bomb shelters.
