Shoutout to AAEM/RSA for advocating on behalf of IMG students concerning the Occupational Language Exam. Superfluous. Expensive. Dangerous. https://t.co/X9Mi9d9zbT #ecfmg #aaem #aaemrsa #emergencymedicine #step2 #IMG

My first experience in critical care as a med student was made awesome because of this nurse. James taught me how to set up CRRT, let me practice cannulation on him, and generally showed me the ropes in the ICU. Great nurse, even better person!

Well, it’s (all but) official:

The AAMC has recommended that residency programs offer only virtual interviews for the upcoming season.

Who wins, and who loses? Let’s find out!

I’m super proud to work @OchsnerHealth during this difficult period. Not only is Ochsner leading in the battle against #COVID19, today we put a #berlinheart left ventricular assist device in Louisiana’s youngest/smallest patient ever. #ochsner #louisiana @LouisianaGov

[Shyam Murali @smuramed]

This is really awesome! I'm going to start going through this to learn as well! #MedEd

@PelletierBui I think this was posted before many of our away rotations were canceled due to covid19. Do you have any guidance for IMGs trying to match EM with the class of 2021?

[LaToya Cantrell @LaToyaForNOLA]

I just spoke on CNN about the very real need we face in Louisiana to get federal resources, as our state is experiencing a faster growth in cases than anywhere in the world. Join me and @LouisianaGov in calling on the Federal Government to declare this a major disaster area. 1/2

[Bryan Carmody @jbcarmody]

Especially with USMLE Step 1 moving to pass/fail, preclinical faculty need to rethink how we spend our time.

Instead of cramming M1/M2 with readily-forgotten miniutiae, we should move in-depth basic science to the 4th year, and teach it in a targeted, specialty-specific way.
