How did the study and treatment of the heart evolve? This is a summary, told in 4 chapters based around a loose theme of the 4 chambers of the heart. It was delivered to the University of Melbourne Medical School's annual conference in June 2021.

00:00 Intro
03:00 Premodern Pioneers
09:38 Blue Babies
26:56 Transplant and the Death Debate
41:48 Balloons and Bacteria
53:26 Conclusion

This was recorded as a talk in a single take so is a bit more natural in terms of delivery than a standard youtube video. Hope you can carve out a little while to give it a watch to appreciate the fascinating history of this organ and field, and why I love them so much. Cheers!
