In case it’s not self evident, I’m an engineer. Once I worked on a company developing an intravascular implantable defibrillator. There was a well-known M.D. involved in the company. He’d come to our technical meetings and just sat there looking confused. In my head, I referred to him as the “installation technician” because he was working with things he didn’t understand.
LOL! I always found medical students to be the most ‘un-mechanical’ people as a group. It always gave me pause thinking about physicians leading the development of artificial hearts and orthopedic implants. I would hope that the more mechanically inclined med-students would naturally gravitate to the surgical specialties.
