Dot Weir, RN, CWON, CWS, speaks with Catherine Milne, MSN, APRN, CWOCN-AP, WoundCon Co-Chair, about delivering wound care across acute care, long-term care, assisted living, outpatient, and home-based settings; navigating regulatory and access barriers; and advancing practical wound care education through WoundCon, PAWSIC, and the Coalition for At-Risk Skin.

Robert Kirsner, MD, PhD, speaks with Marjana Tomic-Canic, PhD, about her path from pediatric burn nursing to wound healing science, including her work on debridement biology, biomarkers of healing, and what spaceflight research may reveal about chronic wounds on Earth.

Dot Weir, RN, CWON, CWS, talks with Diane L. Krasner, PhD, RN, FAAN, FAAWC, MAPWCA, WOCNF, about the evolution of ET and WOC nursing, the mentors and milestones that shaped modern wound care, and the urgent need to recognize skin failure across care settings.

In this episode of the SAWC Difference Makers Podcast, Robert Kirsner, MD, PhD, speaks with David G. Armstrong, DPM, MD, PhD, about the formative patient encounter that shaped his path in wound care, the clinical importance of pain and its absence, and how teamwork, technology, and AI may transform the future of diabetic foot care and limb preservation.

In this episode, Robert Kirsner talks with Geoffrey C. Gurtner about the clinical and scientific questions that shaped his career, the biology linking chronic wounds and fibrosis, and his vision for translating discovery into better patient care.

Dr Robert Kirsner sits down with Dr John Lantis to explore how clinical questions become meaningful wound care research, from building research infrastructure and mentoring investigators to closing the gap between tightly controlled trials and the patients clinicians actually treat every day.

In the inaugural episode of the SAWC Difference Makers Podcast, hosts Robert Kirsner, MD, PhD, and Dot Weir, RN, CWON, CWS, introduce themselves, share the paths that led them into wound care, and preview the conversations ahead on mentorship, innovation, and the evolution of the field.
