Looking to boost your plastics knowledge over summer? We’ve got you covered🤗 Introducing Broadening Horizons, a chill 3-month summer course designed by BLAPRAS. Don’t miss out on access to 9 exciting surgeon led sessions and 3 portfolio talks🩺 Sign-up: https://t.co/llNGvFoqDq
Perhaps we need to look at ourselves and challenge the racism & inequalities within #MedEd (and properly teach anti-racism) before asking med students to sort it in a 7 minute station #medtwitter
In this exciting new study, the authors describe the 'Eumelanin Human Skin Colour Scale', which enables the complete range of human constitutive skin colour to be described in an objective, equitable and understandable manner #dermtwitter#medtwitter

Starting the afternoon talks with Dr Max Greenfield discussing ‘Reforming Anatomy: Examining the Human Body Through the Lenses of Contemporary Art and Medicine’ #TASconference
A reminder that just because you put on the odd Widening Participation day, doesn’t mean you’re not contributing to social inequalities in accessing medical careers. It’s basically WP-washing. £2000 for shadowing is unjustifiable. #MedEd

AMAZING UPCOMING TALK!
By Ms. Sarah Itam on Genitourinary Reconstruction!
This is our first in-person talk - happening on Wednesday 5pm in the Garrod Building, E1 2AD!
Sigh.
Yes, of course increase student numbers.
But if you don't open training bottlenecks, ensure student funding actually goes into #MedEd & invest properly in PG training, then this is utterly pointless.

1/ As we stood to debate a ban on #LGBTQ conversion therapy, colleagues publicly displayed homo/transphobia by misquoting data and misleading research!
This is a reminder that the NHS is still discriminatory!
Thanks @ERunswickBMA for proposing and passing it in its entirety!
1/ Appalling and disgusting opposition from colleagues comparing sex workers to ‘prostituion’, ‘rape’, ‘human toilets’, women ‘may pay to ejaculate in their orifices’.
Thanks @rsb8s for proposing this at #ARM2021! This motion has passed (except iii)!
Every person who seeks health care should be respected, understood and treated with dignity.

Mental health conditions account for 16% of the global burden of disease and injury in people aged 10-19 years (WHO).
Child and adolescent mental wellbeing is just as important as their physical health.
Always important to consider the ethical implications associated with cosmetic surgery.
This #JPRAS paper examines the cultural implications of fox eye surgery. 👁
