He shares his own experience of leaving clinical practice and provides guidance and advice for other doctors who may be considering doing the same.  Throughout the discussion, Dr. Jungmann emphasizes the importance of finding a sense of purpose and fulfillment beyond the bedside, and encourages doctors to think creatively about how they can use their skills and expertise to make a difference in the world. He also discusses the potential for doctors to use their influence and leadership to advocate for change and make a positive impact in their communities and beyond.   The discussion also covers the topic of artificial intelligence (AI) and how it will impact clinical practice in the future. Dr. Jungmann discusses the potential benefits and challenges of integrating AI into healthcare, and how doctors will need to adapt and learn new skills to work effectively with these technologies.  One of the challenges that doctors may face when working with AI is the need to "unlearn" certain habits and ways of thinking that they have developed over their careers. For example, doctors may need to let go of certain preconceptions and biases, and be open to learning new approaches and techniques.  Dr. Jungmann offers guidance on overcoming these challenges and embracing AI's potential to improve patient care and outcomes. He encourages doctors to stay up to date with the latest developments in AI and to be proactive in seeking out opportunities to learn and grow as professionals.  Sven Jungemann: Beyond the Bedside is a thought-provoking and inspiring book for doctors who are considering leaving clinical practice or looking for ways to make a bigger impact in the world.  ------- Chapters: 0:00 Intro 1:41 Studying medicine in Germany 9:00 Diversity, medical residency, and leaving clinical practice 18:20 Writing the book and overcoming stigma and obstacles  26:00 Number one reason for doctors not leaving the clinic 28:00 Number one reason for German doctors to leave clinical practice 35:20 What other options can doctors work in? 40:00 Unlearning and building a parallel career 49:00 Do we make our own decisions? 56:00 Philosophy and the skill that will survive AI 1:04:00 IKIGAI for doctors 1:10:00 Listening to ourselves and trying new things 1:13:00 What does success mean to you? 1:18:30 What keeps you motivated?  -------- Newsletter: http://eepurl.com/hUgUZTBlog: https://nazzal.substack.com/Podcast: https://anchor.fm/neuronal ----  Books for medical studies in Germany: (Amazon affiliate links) Fallbuch Innere Medizin: Mit 155 Fällen.
