    In this episode of the NAMS Medcast, we sit down with Dr. Reniell Iñiguez, a second-year internal medicine resident at Northwestern and host of the Más Allá del Estetoscopio, a medical Spanish podcast. Dr. Iñiguez shares his journey from community college to residency, the personal experiences that shaped his passion for medical Spanish, and the challenges of launching a podcast while navigating intern year.

    We discuss the importance of accurate medical communication, the dangers of false fluency, and how his immersive experiences—like his rotation in Mexico—deepened his fluency in clinical Spanish. Dr. Iñiguez also gives us a behind-the-scenes look at how he crafts his engaging, story-driven podcast episodes and the creative process behind blending medicine with storytelling.

    Tune in to hear about his involvement with POLOM, a project dedicated to evaluating medical Spanish proficiency, and how Northwestern’s residency program supports residents who wish to foster Spanish-speaking patient care. Whether you're a student looking to improve your medical Spanish or a resident balancing creative passions with a demanding workload, this episode is packed with insight and inspiration!

    Nov 22 2024

    Send us a text

    While the teaching of language concordant care is a fundamental area of work in Medical Spanish, novel approaches to Education have to be considered as the field progresses further into the 21st century. This can even include novel areas of work like Virtual Reality (VR) and Artificial Intelligence (AI).

    In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Alyssia Miller De Rutté, Director of Languages for Specific Purposes as well as Assistant Professor of Spanish for Specific Purposes at Colorado State University. She also currently serves as the Vice President of the National Association of Medical Spanish (NAMS).

    We had a chance to learn about her research which encompasses a range of topics in Spanish and Applied Linguistics with a focus on health and medicine and the use of VR and AI in teaching, and how many of these research projects related to the mission and goals of NAMS.
