Rapid information technology improvements shows that the medical education system must reform to focus more on reasoning and less on factual information.

Are we talking about:

1⃣ A large language model trained on 100 trillion parameters or
2⃣ An IBM PS/2 with 300 Mb hard drive?

Robert Ray Jr from Lehigh Valley EM tells it all regarding his experience with racism during training. If this story sounds wild, trust, it’s v common. Surveillance, discipline, uneven application of rules.
When I write abt racialized organizations…whew

Your homework for #Juneteenth2023 is to read this post by Dr. Robert Ray about racism he encountered during his year as chief resident.

I know I’m a smaller account but I encourage everyone to read this blog(yes it’s long). It explains the blatant racism of Leigh Valley Health Network specifically the EM program. I Hope they have the year they deserve :) https://t.co/0WtX8ai90s

Welp. This seems absolutely insane and unacceptable.

I thought coming home after finally finishing the USMLE step series would be such a victorious moment. Instead I’m replaying the moment where my examiner told me he “did not like my attitude” and proceeded to turn off my computer MID-EXAM.

@olsonplanner I’m a non-traditional med student who worked for 7 years before doing a postbacc - it can definitely be done and happy to talk if you’re serious!

Hi, ER Doc here.

Did you know that bystander CPR can double or triple the chances of survival from cardiac arrest? This is how it works.

Life is precious. Learn CPR.

[Olivia Kates, MD @KatesOlivia]

What a day! As many of you already heard from my awesome sponsors, champions, colleagues, & friends, I received the award for “Best Consulting Physician” at my hospital. (That blurb though 🥰) If you’re interested, I’d like to share a few rules I try to live by in this role:

I love the Russian people. That is why I have to tell you the truth. Please watch and share.

[Jackie Singh @HackingButLegal]

This, out of #Ukraine, is 100% one of the most incredible videos I have ever seen.

This Russian POW has the heart of a lion 🦁
