Clinicians & public health professionals: Conjunctivitis in young adults can be caused by nongroupable N. meningitidis. Rapid culture & serogroup identification can guide treatment & outbreak response for those living in communal settings. https://t.co/43FSqwmWCo
Thank you @bryan_p_white!
I completely agree. While @IDWeekmtg is a fantastic meeting, not having a completed manuscript will be what gives me heartburn as a mentor.
I’ve had a couple trainees finish project early, but only one where we held it for a while b4 submission
@JosephMarcusID I like the write and publish now. Doing a poster is a good experience, but there is a decent amount of time spent fomatting and polishing it. Depending on the project, it could go to the SHEA spring meeting.

Most respondents thought:
IM projects finishing now should focus on writing and publishing ASAP

Case: You mentor an IM resident vaguely interested in ID. Your project finishes data analysis in November!
Do you:
Now my thoughts: from day 1, I tell my trainees my expectation is for a national presentation and a manuscript.
If ahead of schedule, I tend to have them write manuscript and submit later in the year (July/Aug) so they can still get the experience of IDWeek

Thank you #IDtwitter for perspectives!
I hope others find it useful. I’m planning #IDResearchChallenges 🥼🧫🧬👨🔬👩🔬Week 8 next weekend
Please let me know if there is a way I could make this more useful for others
#IDResearchChallenges 🥼🧫🧬👨🔬👩🔬Week 7- An idea 💡
Case: When you have a new idea for a research project and don’t have a particular mentee in mind….
Most respondents would reach out to training programs to find perspective mentees.

#IDResearchChallenges 🥼🧫🧬👨🔬👩🔬Week 7- An idea 💡
Case: You have a project idea that would be perfect for a medical student or resident, but don’t have a particular trainee in mind?
Do you:
Generally,
✅Add to list: second half of year to prepare for incoming residents, fellows
✅Start project: Only a few times for projects I can’t wait for
✅Reach out to leadership: Early in year once all my mentees have projects
Thanks @lichenlady94!
An option not mentioned is having colleagues recommend a trainee for project or to co-lead a project with another colleague! Always great to work with a diverse team and get multiple perspectives on a project
