There medical doctors in Upper West Regional hospital who haven’t been paid for an entire year. 12 months no salary. What’s the point of sending doctors outside Accra if you won’t pay them on time? They’re supposed to just somehow survive for a whole year without pay?
That's how Cheddar with a straight face told us that his parents gave he and his siblings some chickens and his siblings ate their but he didn't.
He took the Cock in "Cock and Bull" story and made it his origin story
This is what the average Ghanaian LOVES. They��ll hear this and say “ahahnn this is what we want, a doctor who cares”, forgetting that she shouldn’t have to do this in the first place. Oh well

For the third consecutive year, members of our MGB Neurosurgery Global Health Program traveled to West Africa to collaborate with local teams in expanding access to neurosurgical care.
This year marked the team’s first visit to Korle Bu Teaching Hospital in Accra, Ghana, with a focus on endoscopic endonasal pituitary surgery and epilepsy surgery.
Congratulations to every member of this incredible team for their dedication, partnership, and commitment to advancing global neurosurgery. And a massive thank you to all of the sponsors and partners who make this work possible #globalneurosurgery
He turned 86 yesterday, but he's not stopping!

#FreePrimaryHealthCare is the latest chapter in Ghana's journey towards universal health coverage, and potentially the most consequential.
My thoughts on the rationale behind the policy and what it adds to the existing @NHIS_Ghana.

The case against the use of "Dr. Mrs."
A thread on grammar, colonialism, and eccentric naming conventions amongst female medical doctors and professionals
This year’s medicine laureate Shimon Sakaguchi discovered a new class of T cells.
Sakaguchi was swimming against the tide in 1995, when he made a key discovery. At the time, many researchers were convinced that immune tolerance only developed due to potentially harmful immune cells being eliminated in the thymus, through a process called central tolerance.
Sakaguchi showed that the immune system is more complex and discovered a previously unknown class of immune cells, which protect the body from autoimmune diseases.

I would like to share the story of how a patient with cancer came up with the idea for a randomized trial, & how listening to him saved a lot of lives.
1/ In 2002, I had just completed a randomized trial with the notorious drug thalidomide for the cancer, multiple myeloma.
That new crop of upcoming politicians, especially on social media, will make the current ones look like angels if they’re given the chance to lead this country.
One neurosurgeon. Eight million people.
In Sierra Leone, Dr. Alieu Kamara became the nation’s first and only neurosurgeon in 2025, carrying the weight of a country’s neurosurgical needs on his shoulders. From head injuries to complex spine cases, his work is transforming what once seemed impossible into hope and healing.
His first spine surgery in Sierra Leone gave a paralyzed father the chance to move his toes again. Beyond the operating room, Dr. Kamara is training future physicians, proving that progress in neurosurgery creates a ripple effect of impact far beyond one patient.
This #NeurosurgeryAwarenessMonth, we honor pioneers like Dr. Kamara whose dedication underscores our shared mission: Every Patient. One Purpose. https://t.co/5whszMHCSL
