We’re dedicating today’s top story to the people and publications that we rely on to find the most interesting cardiology stories from across the web. Assuming that you already subscribe to Cardiac Wire, these are the 40 other newsletters, websites, and social media stars to follow if you want to keep up with the latest and greatest in cardiology.
I’ll always check the mainstream cardiology news websites (TCTMD, Medscape, et al.) and the major cardiovascular journals (JACC, AHA, JAMA Cardiology, etc.), but in order to find news that you won’t see elsewhere and understand how it impacts care, the juiciest stories usually come from the newsletters and websites run by people of cardiology.
- Dr Paddy Barrett – A growing voice in cardiology, with a longevity twist
- Sensible Medicine – A much needed critical voice in cardiology
- The Skeptical Cardiologist – Skeptical takes on the latest cardiology topics
- Circulation on the Run – We appreciate recaps “for busy clinicians on the run”
- Gregory Katz’s Substack – His stories make ours stories better
