Busy slides don’t make you look clever.
They make your message harder to follow.
Here’s how to say more — with less:

@PKalambettu This is indeed disappointing @BAPM_Official. I expected better from an @RCPCHtweets affiliated SIG!

Show this: https://t.co/pIsxbrSXJV to your conference secretariat and rectify accordingly to save me from having to discuss exclusion by omission at SAS Committee yet again!

@thomasforth Forgive me if it’s been mentioned already and I just haven’t sent it. IMO, your thesis lacks consideration of socio-historical factors that have prevented this from happening organically. E.g. rivalries like Manchester vs Liverpool and Lancashire vs Yorkshire etc.

@NiallHarbison Dogs’ ability to utterly convince us they’ve never before been fed using only their eyes, is the only proof I’ve ever needed that our species’ co-developed!

@TheSpaceshipper There is a time jump in the story. Perhaps they’re simply waiting for the players to age sufficiently?

@DrRJWebb @Xeon4f145d96s1 That’s one of my favourites too.

I also enjoy wearily asking if they actually meant pneumonia or pyelonephritis (whichever applies).

@NICU_Musings Babies do indeed do the very best underwhelmed looks!
Same goes for joy, but they pale in comparison to their unimpressed looks!

@Barrister79 I like stollen too! I must seem deeply weird to you! I care not!!

@Barrister79 @LittlePersonDoc Imagine a cross between Fred Flinstone and Homer Simpson and you won’t be far off!

Another time, he presented me with porridge for breakfast that was in a cake mixing bowl and must’ve consisted of a whole box of oats and a half gallon of milk!

@LittlePersonDoc @Barrister79 I am the only one in my entire family who likes it.
My Dad said one year that he’d make me one. I imagined a 👊-sized individual one.
Nope.
It was twice the size of my head and on 🔥!
I felt like Bruce Bogtrotter and his chocolate cake in Matilda!

@sas_sobauk 70 members, 200-odd NHS Trusts in England so short 130+. It looks like we still have a long way to travel…

I wonder how many are ‘choosing’ to be employed on local contracts? Many possibly are, as training programmes are inherently inflexible.
Most are probably victims of training bottlenecks because of arbitrary restrictions on NTN’s.
Lots more I could say but nuance isn’t for X!

We're pleased to share the second in our annual series of #StateOfMed reports – Workforce. This focuses on the changing shape of the medical workforce across the UK.

This year’s report shows that the medical register continues to grow, as does the diversity of the doctors on it.

Doctors’ career paths are also changing, with more doctors than ever before choosing locally employed (LE) roles, working outside of formal postgraduate training pathways and with local contracts.

In England and Wales, where data is currently available to us, the number of LE doctors grew by 75% between 2019 and 2023 – this makes this the fastest growing cohort on the register.

As we look to the next decade, it’s critical that all doctors have the infrastructure, support and resources they need to achieve their ambitions. That’s in the interests of doctors, as well as the interests of a growing and ageing population.

@LittlePersonDoc @gmcuk Prescribing is a responsibility, not a right.

@2manypeople4me @iDrSunny For some reason my 🧠 went here…

[Peter Rose @PJRose83]

@Doc_IonaCollins Apparently so. AI in the form of LLM’s is thick as 🐷 💩! I saw a 🧵 a while ago proving I t’s made computers bad at maths!

As funny as that was, I still think this is my favourite mistranslation:

@parthaskar @lauradonnlee @Telegraph @doctor_oxford @DrAsifQasim @mmamas1973 @ShivaniM_KC @DrLKVaughan @UKGastroDr @RowanHarwood @COPDdoc @respirologist @kidneydoc101 We really have to simplify and standardise job titles. Speaking as a former LED & current SAS doctor, the myriad confusing titles is especially detrimental to my tribe!
Yet another thing that traces back to MMC!
