The Know Your Lemons Foundation was founded in 2014 by Corrine Ellsworth-Beaumont, MA, PhD, a designer who lost her grandmothers and a close friend to breast cancer. She created the #knowyourlemons campaign as an initiative to help improve early detection of breast cancer through symptoms and screening education in a fun, accessible, and inclusive way. We interviewed Dr. Ellsworth-Beaumont at the World Cancer Leaders’ Summit. Using 12 lemons instead of breasts helps the campaign achieve a global reach, overcoming cultural taboos around breasts. Learn how an image can save lives from breast cancer, as was featured in a Ted Talk.

We also speak with regular contributor Dr. MedLaw, a licensed radiologist and medical malpractice attorney, about where the line can be drawn between medical and ordinary professional negligence. Doctors are usually concerned about liability for medical malpractice, but what about liability as operators of their office? A busy medical office, with staff, patients, and visitors coming and going, can be a real liability arena. As a business and premises owner, what do you need to think about?
