We’re absolutely committed to being the most awkward section of the Archives of Disease in Childhood, and this month we’re managing it with not only having a gender-indeterminate ‘voice’ in this section and anthropomorphising a chunk of journal, but by leaping forward and backward in time.
AI has not been involved with this writing, but we’ll all be aware of where AI is creeping into our own professional and personal lives. Can it help in our high-quality evidence-based medicine, though? (Read more https://adc.bmj.com/content/111/2/193.2). Is it the future?
And looking to the past, should we be recommending breast milk for neonatal sticky eyes? And if not, why not? Again, a full explanation can be found in the journal: https://adc.bmj.com/content/111/2/193.1
We would love for you to be involved in Archi [https://adc.bmj.com/pages/authors#archimedes]. Just ask the questions that your patients are offering you - and tell us how you’re finding the podcast offerings.

Crashing back into your ears with the grace of a three-year-old ballet dancer, Archimedes blusters about how we can measure ‘feeling better’ [https://adc.bmj.com/content/110/10/844.2] and what I might need to learn.
This leads onto difficult neurology, following on from neonates last month, but in more grown-up children with cases around complex epilepsy and the use of cannabidiols - specifically their chance to improve quality of life [https://adc.bmj.com/content/110/10/844.1].
