In this episode Philip Elders, Sarah Djurfi and Gabrielle Cepella, all former or current medical students of VU Amsterdam, talk about environmental change. Together with their fellow students Lieke Noij, Jip van Trommel, Eva van der Heide and Amber van Haaster they call themselves CO₂-assistants. It is their goal to raise awareness for the impact of environmental change on our health. And that requires a radical change of the medical curriculum.
