Today’s Grand Rounds featured two of our outstanding faculty members, Alisa Blumenthaler, M.D., and Walker Blanding, M.D. Both joined our department last fall, and we are grateful for the expertise and dedication they bring to our team! #surgery

A great evening with our spectacular chief residents. We laughed a lot! They are an amazing group and will be missed. Luckily we have two more months of fun activities to celebrate them. @IU_Surgery

Patients didn’t have a clear preference. But they responded positively to clarity, compassion

I’m so grateful for the opportunity to rotate in Eldoret, Kenya this month. It has been a very unique learning opportunity for me and I am looking forward to the next 3 weeks of my rotation!

[Karl Bilimoria @kbilimoria]

Our @IU_Surgery residents get the chance to come do an approved clinical rotation in Kenya, & I was lucky enough to be here at the same time as PGY4 @alisab44. An amazing experience for trainees to learn about surgical care delivery in Africa. Truly life changing! @IUMedSchool

Wow. 😧

If y’all read *one* thing today, might I suggest this new article in @NEJM?

“The belief that Black people have denser bones, more muscle, or thicker skin led radiologists and technicians to use higher radiation exposure during x-ray procedures.”
