Gustave Falciglia

Father, husband, neonatologist and wannabe cosmologist. Tolerant of discomfort, comfortable with uncertainty and wary of extremes. 🇺🇸🇦🇷🐅

Not that anybody asked, but the last time the @NYKnicks won a championship, the Periodic Table had 11-percent fewer Elements.

[The Incubator Podcast @nicupodcast]

What would it mean for your NICU if the next generation of fellows had only 4 to 8 weeks of NICU exposure before starting fellowship?

That is the reality today. And now the ABP is proposing to shorten neonatology fellowship from three years to two. ONTPD leaders Dr. Patrick Myers, Dr. Heather French, and Dr. Melissa Scala ran the numbers and found that meeting the new clinical hour requirements would mean asking fellows to work at roughly double what is currently recommended for ICU physicians, while eliminating the scholarly activity requirement entirely.

You cannot manufacture a 22 weeker. You cannot schedule an ECMO run.

The program directors who train the people standing next to you in your NICU are asking for one thing right now: a seat at the table before these changes go through. This episode lays out exactly what is at stake, what the data shows, and what the community is proposing instead. If you care about who is taking care of your patients in five years, this conversation is for you.

Last year students asked me a great and hard question: how, in this crazy environment, are we supposed to find and start our life's work? I wanted to give them real answers, so I wrote this book: https://t.co/dDBF6FLMPB

@KatherineEban @TheEconomist They probably do. Though I’ve thought an indirect benefit of no byline is that it forces critics to address the content of its articles rather than engage in ad hominem attacks which is too common of a tactic.

[Aaron E. Carroll @aaronecarroll]

1/ I’ve been thinking a lot about how we communicate health data and research shapes public trust & the ways oversimplification is leading to growing mistrust in science. A thread 👇️

Though Cooper may seem lost in space, he is ultimately driven by one goal: to reconnect with and save his children. @McConaughey convincingly captures the devotion of a desperate parent.

@nytimes, Joseph Cooper is many things in @Interstellar engineer, a pilot, and a farmer—but, most importantly, he is a father.

Thanks to the quick actions of Istanbul Yurdum Spor's captain, there was a happier ending than after the Randy Johnson incident 🚑

@NBCOlympics more drone footage of the competitions please. Fantastic to watch speed skating and down hill skiing from athletes viewpoint.

@KelseyLConway @pauldehnerjr @BengalsTalkSI my fear is that these end-of-the-season @Bengals wins will be just enough to convince ownership and management that no big changes are needed.

After rewatching Home Alone, I couldn’t stop wondering:

how plausible is the oversleep that leaves Kevin behind?
So I wrote a tiny paper and ran the numbers.

Merry Christmas! 🎄

The #Bengals can make it look so easy. A glimpse at what might have been.

[Gustave Falciglia @Cx8Strategy]

@SeanCasten You might think you’re pretty clever for coming up with “word salad of stupidity” but your tone is really getting in the way of making a cogent argument. I guess this isn’t how social media works. Call me old fashioned, but you might go farther with less vitriol.
