Self assessment is messy, but not going away any time soon. Learn from my mistakes in crafting the evaluation for your next teaching session! Thanks to @JournalGIM for believing we could teach educators to write better evaluations https://t.co/Alh62mBukg

@VipsMDMEd @fholguinmd @CU_PSCCM @CUDeptMedicine Full time dad so I sadly missed it!

Debriefing is one effective tool for healthcare providers to process traumatic events they experience at work. Can a brief workshop improve senior residents’ confidence at leading team debriefs after difficult events? @jameswykow https://t.co/1kSFZKFhvU #MedEd

[James Wykowski @jameswykow]

Very proud to see this project in print! We all need to be prepared to cope with the difficult events we encounter at work. Thankful to @uw_chiefs, @JournalofGME for believing in this idea and proud to keep it moving forward! https://t.co/EzSur4zV8q

Is your noon conference out of date? In this perspective by @jameswykow and team, hear from a group of chief residents and medical educators about principles for successful inpatient conference reform. https://t.co/zyZsd9hhkt #MedEd @uw_medicine

New #MedEd Pub Alert 🚨

I’m *so* excited to share this @AcadMedJournal paper authored with @LekshmiMD on procedural education and precision curricula.

Let’s discuss *finally* individualizing goals for procedural training!

Last year the @uw_chiefs wanted to do more than simply returning to in-person conferences in the post-COVID era. Read more about our vision for the future of lunch conferences, out today in @JournalGIM https://t.co/dPlIlg6Ypf @acgme @UWGME @UWMedicine

Congratulations to Dr. Amanda Shepherd, (@UW_DGIM) recipient of the 39th annual Paul B. Beeson Award! @AmandaKShep was chosen by the IM residents @uw_chiefs for outstanding clinical teaching and for exemplifying scholarship, humility, compassion, and integrity.

Tomorrow at 12 PST join @UWDeptMedicine Grand Rounds where I’ll be speaking about creating our emotion-focused debriefing curriculum for senior residents and sharing debriefing tools for all clinicians! https://t.co/ou2nHPVFJK

@RozehnalMd @joshmcgoo I think the key is no 24 hour shifts in universally required clerkships, and maybe ok to include some in subIs geared at really “trying a speciality on” if they’re reflective of much of the actual training/career

[James Wykowski @jameswykow]

If your journal is going to automatically reject papers based on certain policies you should 1) include the policy in your instructions for authors and 2) not take a month to send the rejection

Rising chief residents: consider the @JAMAInternalMed #teachablemoment editorial fellowship! An amazing opportunity to learn about the editorial process with a great team of mentors. Happy to discuss more via DM! https://t.co/hQvuVZuugN

*NEW* Viewpoint, w/ @ZekEmanuel, @KatieKraschel: Given that abortion is health care, why are so many medical professional societies holding national meetings in states that preclude abortion access? A brief 🧵: https://t.co/okqblremry

[Jackie DesJardin, MD @JTDesJardin]

As an IM resident in the ICU, I felt like my male colleagues were doing tons of lines while I got few. I wondered: am I imagining this? Is this gendered? Turns out others wondered the same. So we decided to study it. The results are now out in @atsscholar.

@aclong111 Thank you! This project literally started while chatting with #andyluks on the 2E A pod waiting for rounds to start…hard to believe how far it came

[James Wykowski @jameswykow]

We found that residents in our program lacked skills to accurately complete death certificates; when we realized it wasn’t just a local problem we created a curriculum anyone can adapt for UME, GME or CME learners! Check it out:

[MedEdPORTAL @MedEdPORTAL]

Accurate death certificate completion remains a large knowledge gap for many medical providers. This workshop from @UWMedicine & @jameswykow improved efficacy at completing death certificates for commonly encountered clinical scenarios. https://t.co/pqERLlLm5g #MedEd #MEPFeature

Pharmacists of #medtwitter: any issues warming suspended amox/clav or liquid motrin and mixing it with breast milk?
