About this listen

In this episode of Unstable Vitals, ER docs-turned-entrepreneurs Dr. Adam Brown and Dr. Lara Zibners sit down with Dr. Owais Durrani — emergency physician, media personality, STEM advocate, and Coldplay superfan — for an unfiltered conversation that flies from fighter jets to frontline care. A first-generation college student, Dr. Durrani shares how his lived experiences shaped his passion for equitable healthcare, science education, and public policy.


They unpack the harsh realities of an unstable U.S. healthcare system, the impact of funding cuts on STEM initiatives, and why inspiring the next generation of scientists matters more than ever. Oh, and yes, Coldplay and sh*t golfer names all make an appearance.
