One major issue I have with encouraging students to “do research during med school” to earn a residency spot is that it cheapens what research actually is. It sends the message that research is something you squeeze in between learning physiology, primary care, surgery, and everything else. Good research takes TIME, focus and real intellectual investment. Treating it like a side hobby shows a lack of respect for what good researchers actually do.

they said i could never be a disabled doctor... but i did. I became unwell in my 3rd year of medical school and was told to drop out, there was no place for disabled doctors. I balanced neuro rehab & attending my placements in a wheelchair. Today l graduated Medicine as Dr Niamh

Kevin Lee, an MS4 @OhioStateMed + newly matched into Neurology was diagnosed with a rare brain cancer in March of 2024.

Since his diagnosis, he’s had a brain biopsy, multiple LPs, and just finished his first round of chemotherapy.

A good critique doesn’t have to be 100% critical.

If you’re offering feedback on a paper, presentation, or proposal, just as important as describing what needs to improve is highlighting what is already great and what makes it so.

“Do not pity the dead. Pity the living. And, above all, those who live without love.”

The population I see in my ICU is remarkably skewed. What’s common throughout the fabric of our society, though, is the loneliness epidemic.

Be kind. Life is fragile. #HappyFriday

20 of the most important ideas everyone should know:

1. Cunningham's Law:

The best way to find the right answer on the internet is not to ask the right question, but to post the wrong answer.

Why? Because people are more interested in criticizing others than helping them.

For 7 months @Cigna hasn't reimbursed routine therapy for my son who has special needs. For 7 months, they have stonewalled me about why, even though the therapy is clearly covered in my policy. For 7 months, I have sat on hold, shuttled from operator to operator. At my wit's end
