We are heartbroken to share that Dr. Dominique Vervoort has passed away after a long battle with melanoma. He was 31.

Co-founder of #InciSioN, architect of early global surgery advocacy, and host of IGSS2018. Dominique helped build the movement many now stand on.

Doctors received offers for Radiology training posts at around 3-4pm. They were able to accept these offers on Oriel and received confirmation of acceptance. Offers then began to disappear on Oriel. At 6:30pm they received this email.

Simply unacceptable.

@ishsulin Once you sign a form, save as and rename it to firstname lastname signed and then the file name so you can keep track of what’s done. You can also have a separate folder called like “signed forms” which you can just whack them in once they’re done
