Will retire as Chair of Surgery on July 1. My novel, Thorax, is doing well but will not fund retirement. Will start second novel, likely a sequel, really soon!

Grand Rounds from @tomwhalen at @hopkinssurgery @HopkinsMedicine @SinaiSurgery

#Leadership vs. management. Great insights for surgeons about #emotionalintelligence, #motivation, team building, change management, negotiation, communication.

Older individuals who were partially dependent pre-operatively had 5xs higher odds of discharging to non-home after undergoing surgery, compared to patients who were independent. Pre-habilitation may be beneficial in improving patient outcome. #geriatrics https://t.co/bTQT97NpWd
