For those of you who found out that you passed Part 1 or Part 2 of the FRCPath last week, Congractulations!

It has been my intention for some time to follow the example of other websites and include free downloadable podcasts. I will attempt to pick out interesting articles from:

1. Journal of Infection/Journal of Hospital Infection
2. Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy
3. Clinical Infectious Diseases
4. Clinical Microbiology Reviews
5. Clinical Microbiology and Infection.
6. Lancet Infectious Diseases
