Objectively, I cannot imagine a worse policy to propose

[The News & Observer @newsobserver]

Proposed state law would end tenure at UNC and add scrutiny of faculty research https://t.co/VjSfQERHRF

First day ever in the MICU will be me on 24hr call tomorrow- here goes nothin

[Ben Twery, MD @BenTwery]

It appears that failures to replicate results re the amyloid hypothesis in AD were ignored at best. I hope this public realization leads to more effective and affordable therapies for our patients. Great work by @cpiller

[Charles Piller @cpiller]

Were two separate, major lines of Alzheimer’s research tainted by image fabrication, with far-reaching implications for the field? I take a deep look for @ScienceMagazine https://t.co/f26wIf6ktf

@RyanThompsonMD What’s better is that I don’t actually think he has ILD lol

[Ben Twery, MD @BenTwery]

My patient had some weird findings on imaging so I went back to get a more detailed history. Turns out he’s spent the last 10 years going to work at a prison where cuts sheetrock all day and then comes home to his family and pet bird 🤦‍♂️

[Ben Twery, MD @BenTwery]

@RyanThompsonMD How else is one supposed to learn the correct dosage of regular strength Tylenol?

[Ben Twery, MD @BenTwery]

I started rewatching Scrubs on my first day of intern year and it’s even more enjoyable this time because I get to participate on rounds

The percentage of physicians who are Black men was the same in 2018 as it was in 1940.

2.6%

Let that sink in.
