In response to @NickdMillar I am trying to collate and maintain a list of Australasian (Australia and New Zealand) Health, Medical, Nursing and Midwifery blogs, with their related twitter accounts. As with @DrCris from Scalpel’s Edge, it is often difficult to pick ANZ authors from their postings – so leave a comment on this post so that I can make the list as accurate as possible…
Please leave comments below if you would like to add to the list of ANZ bloggers. The permanent link to this table will be hosted at the Aussie and Kiwi Health and Medical Blogs
