Welcome to the eleventh episode in the "What we've learnt this week..." series. These are short 15 minute or so podcasts where we discuss topics we have encountered in the preceding weeks; whether it be on the wards, in a journal, at teaching or even on Twitter!

This week Nick, Christina and Emma discuss causes of vertigo, how to correctly take a bisphosphonate, managing diabetes at the end of life and restless leg syndrome.
