As a Black med student, it’s been great to see conversations about racism in medicine become less taboo.

Hopefully we can also address how wealth continues to be a de facto gatekeeper for a career in medicine. I share my thoughts and a few solutions here: https://t.co/T6RhZ4S2Nw

[Alice Lu @_AliceLu]

I've been thinking about how the pandemic has intensified provider (& caregiver) burnout. I hope healthcare institutions, employers, and policymakers alike will look inwards to address systemic issues + listen to their communities to learn how to provide meaningful support.

It's been a tragic week for the Asian-American community 😔 inspired by the #StopAsianHate movement, I've been trying to process over the past week by exploring some of the cultural barriers for Asian-Americans in accessing healthcare services https://t.co/jjcHHfLf5z

[Sherman Leung @sk_leung]

Spent some time thinking through ways we can better integrate EM into alternative payment models as someone clinically interested in emergency medicine and professionally interested in value-based care https://t.co/mkd9f6Zspj

[Sherman Leung @sk_leung]

A few of us from MD++ (https://t.co/hhkSrJRjsd) are starting a #socialEM working group to (1) share playbooks across institutions and (2) organize community stakeholder roundtables - would love to join forces with other #MedStudentTwitter folks at other schools! cc @aneeqahnaeem

1/2 I’m not going to reveal who wrote this, but it’s one of my scientific & personal idols who redefined cancer : “Human creativity is best defined as joining two fields that have not been joined before. All those who are truly creative have “mastered the art of non-expertise”

[Alice Lu @_AliceLu]

In my first blog post ever (!), I discuss using #criticalracetheory as a framework for addressing racism through Medical-Legal Partnerships. Indebted to #CRT scholars. Inspired by #healthjustice league & colleagues @DickinsonLaw. #socialdeterminantsofhealth #medleg @National_MLP

[Sayed Tabatabai, M.D. @TheRealDoctorT]

“Why do you want to be a doctor?”

I answer without hesitation, “I want to help people.”

“There are many ways to help people.”

“I want to save lives.”

“There are many ways to do that too. So I’ll ask you again, why do you want to be a doctor?”

“Because I believe in it.” 1/

Taking notes to a whole new level, I love this 🤯😍

During the #COVID19 surge in NYC, we worked to address the 'shadow pandemic' of patients' unmet social needs (food, housing, income). #SDOH
