How ‘Ollie the Biomed’ Is Reaching HTM’s Next Generation

In this episode of the 24x7 podcast on the MEDQOR Podcast Network, 24x7 chief editor Keri Forsythe-Stephens welcomes good friend of the podcast Chace Torres (aka: “The Bearded Biomed”) to discuss the launch of his new book, “Ollie the Biomed.” Torres shares that the book was inspired by the impending arrival of his firstborn son and his desire to create awareness and interest in the biomed field at an early age. He believes that building awareness among children is crucial and compares it to how kids learn about other professions through cartoons and books.

Torres describes the process of writing and publishing the book, starting with multiple drafts and revisions of the script. He reveals how he collaborated with an artist via an online app to create the illustrations, ensuring they reflected his vision.

The industry’s response to the book has been overwhelmingly positive, with biomeds and their children enjoying the story and illustrations. Torres’ goal is to extend the book’s reach beyond biomeds and into schools and libraries, and he has already donated copies to Children’s Health Hospital. He plans to explore various avenues, including school programs and awards, to further promote the book’s outreach.

Overall, the podcast highlights Torres’ journey in writing and publishing “Ollie the Biomed” and emphasizes the importance of introducing children to the biomed field at an early age. Interested parties can buy the book here.
