Medical Illustration Podcast - Biomedical Communications 80th Anniversary
Updated: Jul 1, 2025
Welcome back to the Medical Illustration podcast, this is your host, Paul Kelly, and I am thrilled to share with you this special episode of the podcast. This year, 2025, marks the 80th anniversary of Toronto, Ontario, Canada’s Biomedical Communications program, from which I graduated in 2011. The 2 years I spent in this program were quite literally life changing. Without a doubt the most intensely transformative years of my life, and positively so in every way.
Guys, you are all really going to enjoy this discussion with BMC’s current director, Michael Corrin–whose reputation extends throughout the medical illustration community as someone who lives and breathes visualization in myriad forms. Michael embodies a rare combination of a true polymath in creative abilities, and an encouraging, enthusiastic, charismatic educator–
and Dr Shelley Wall, equally prolific in her influence on the BMC program’s culture and creative output, Shelley’s exceptional artistic abilities have shaped countless student portfolios across generations, while pioneering work in medical comics–continuing to redefine how visual storytelling intersects with healthcare education. Shelley has also served as narrator for countless BMC graduate animations.
Beginning as “Art as Applied to Medicine”--a diploma course in 1945, at the University of Toronto, Biomedical Communications, or BMC, evolved into a graduate degree program over the past 80 years, within the Institute of Medical Science starting in 1994, and the Department of Biology at the University of Toronto-Mississauga, or UTM, in 2010. This involved several restructuring phases under the guidance and direction of several incredibly unique individuals. Today we’re going to talk about some of these important milestones and figures in BMC’s history, and we’ll be talking a lot about where the program is today and where it’s headed.

This page is pretty chill to browse—nothing feels cluttered or like it’s trying too hard. I like that the text is broken up enough that you can skim and still get the idea without rereading. I ended up clicking into Drift Boss in the middle of scrolling, and it loads fast and gets you into the drifting right away with that one-button setup. It’s simple at first, but you can tell pretty quickly that the timing’s the whole challenge. Also nice that you’re not wading through a bunch of fluff just to figure out what the game even is. The headings stand out, and the “How to Play” info sits in a clean, easy-to-spot block.
keo nha cai dạo này mình thấy nhiều người nhắc nên mình cũng bấm vào xem thử cho biết thôi. Mình không phải kiểu ngồi phân tích kèo hay gì, chủ yếu xem họ trình bày thông tin có dễ nhìn không. Lướt một vòng thấy cái bảng kèo bóng đá trực tuyến làm khá ổn, chia cột gọn gàng nên nhìn phát là phân biệt được phần cả trận với hiệp 1. Mình cũng có kéo xuống đọc thử đoạn giải thích “kèo nhà cái là gì”, viết kiểu ngắn gọn nên không bị mệt mắt. Nói chung cảm giác họ ưu tiên cho người xem nhanh, ít phải tìm kiếm vòng vo. Cuộn xuống là gặp ngay khối…
