@kbilimoria @BrighamSurgery @AmCollSurgeons @acgme @The_SECONDTrial @IU_Surgery @SaadatLily @krchhabra @gmdoherty @pturnermd 🤣 recruitment will be easier than any of the other numbered trials!

@maraantonoff @NateDeboever @MDAndersonNews @AATSHQ @NateDeboever gave a great presentation on an important topic. More and more the financial burden of Tx is shifted to patients with life altering effect. Looking forward to more work from your group on how surgeons can be part of the solution!

@TsengJennifer @KateEEngelhardt @muschollings @ct_musc @MUSCSurgery @IanCBostock1 I’m looking forward to the face of @KateEEngelhardt getting funded too! Congrats on another milestone!

[David Odell, MD MS @DavidDOdell]

@FarhoodFarjah Missed the voting, but also a strong yes. I as @LindaMThoracic said, this is congruent with trial designs, so not doing a frozen eval brings you into a data-free zone. I think this is going to be more and more important and underscores the value of working closely with patholgy

Great talk today by @charlesloganmd @NM_Lung at the Western Thoracic on the opportunity for surgeons to help improve transitions of care for adjuvant treatment after lung cancer surgery. A sign of a good talk is the line at the mic to continue the discussion! #tssmn #wtsa2022

@IUMedSchool @kbilimoria Congratulations Karl! IU surgeons, you are getting a fantastic mentor and advocate as your new chair.

@JackieKOlive @maraantonoff @TomVargheseJr @BrianMitzman @drnikkistamp @DouglasEWood1 @OPreventzaMD @leahbackhusmd @LCKaneMD @jdoningtonmd @LisaBrownMD Unfortunately biases persist among MDs and patients alike. Female physicians deserve the expectation of professional respect - using the appropriate title is just one example. Especially key for male MDs to model this approach @JackieKOlive. Consciously address unconscious bias!

[David Odell, MD MS @DavidDOdell]

@KateEEngelhardt As long as you continue to avoid those burns from the harmonic scalpel you’re still winning!

As for the second question...probably just means you’re a cardiac fellow right now

[David Odell, MD MS @DavidDOdell]

@NMSurgery @AnkitBharatMD @amyhalversonmd Congratulations to two@very deserving leaders in modern surgery. Honored to call them partners and friends!

[Anne Gelfer @amgelfervideos]

This past summer, I filmed something for @NorthwesternMed that you can see on ABC Nightline, 11:35pm March 3. If you’re not up late, record it, because you won’t want to miss it.

I couldn't sleep! Too much coffee or maybe just looking forward to tonight's ISQIC Advisory Committee meeting. Lots of smart people (I'm dumbest) in one (virtual) room planning how to improve surgical care for our Illinois pts! @ISQIC1 @NU_SOQIC @kbilimoria @NMSurgery @purplesurg

Straight to the floor for me. Priority order in our household: baby > mom > older kids > dogs > kids electronics > dad. 😥

[Brian Mitzman @BrianMitzman]

@ElliotServaisMD @maraantonoff @tomcnguyen @GloorLoor @archerm2 @rvanharen You're lucky enough to get the side chair?? I'd be crammed into one of those little front chairs, or laying across the top of the cubbies. 🤣

[David Odell, MD MS @DavidDOdell]

Also, it’s ok to do the case yourself even if you have a trainee with you. Just be honest with them up front and set the expectations. #CTCareers

[Seth Krantz, MD, FACS @SethBKrantz]

T4 #ctcareers. Even if you are in teaching institution, I would try and do as many cases on your own early on (not with trainees). You need to build up your skill as an attending. Hard to be a great teacher your first year or two in practice.

[David Odell, MD MS @DavidDOdell]

T4. Don’t try to know everything just because you are an attending. Asking for help is a sign of strength and makes your partners and the rest of the hospital community trust you more. #CTCareers
