Hi David, I remember this research. A survey of medical school deans was conducted and found that medical students were breaching patient confidentiality laws by discussing (usually embarassing) patient cases on social networking sites such as Facebook, YouTube and Twitter. The research was conducted by Katherine C. Chretien, and from what I can tell it was published in The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA. 2009;302(12):1309-1315.) Hope that helps! Look forward to seeing you in London next week.

If so, please contact me and I will put you in touch with the journalist. David. PS: I hope to see a lot of you in London next week...
