Parental leave for physicians in the US is inadequate. We call for evidence-based 12 weeks paid parental leave!
Our study showed no paid leave for 42% birth, 44% nonbirth, 40% adoptive, and 75% foster parents

Only 13-14% of @usnews-ranked medical schools give faculty 12-wks parental leave at full pay; lower rates for adoption/foster leave. Inadequate parental leave contributes to physician workforce attrition & #BurnOut. @JessSlostadMD@nedalai@ShikhaJainMD https://t.co/zbXB3bMkpW

A quick trip to San Antonio for #SABCS23, but so grateful to be able to present a case of paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration in HER2+ breast cancer. Thank you to @SABCSSanAntonio and Drs. Andrea Madrigrano and @JessSlostadMD for the opportunity! @RushSurgery@RushHemOnc
With increasing breast cancer diagnoses in young women, high death rates in Black women, #USPSTF is recommending all women at average risk get regular mammograms at 40 instead of 50. Will insurance companies expand coverage to make it possible? 🧵

Great work @nedalai@JessSlostadMD@ShikhaJainMD
Our prior work with @CGunnBU and @AnitaRajUCSD in @WHIjournal found that senior men and women do not know their institutional parental leave policies. Time for us all to step up and advocate for our colleagues.
Paid parental leave has numerous health benefits for both parents and infants, including a decrease in postpartum depression, a decrease in infant mortality, and improved parental-infant attachment. https://t.co/qLbbs1K7oK #PsychTwitter#MedTwitter#MentalHealth#PPD
This study shows far too many medical schools offer little to no paid parental leave—which leads to burnout and may exacerbate racial, sex and socioeconomic disparities in academic medicine.
Such important work @JessSlostadMD, @nedalai, @ShikhaJainMD

Very excited to see this in print! Kudos to @JessSlostadMD - parental leave at full pay should be the gold standard- if we want to practice evidence-based medicine!
