This thread will be dedicated to the victims of the mass shooting in Buffalo.

This is Ruth Whitfield, 86. Her son, the former Buffalo Fire Commissioner, said she was on her way from visiting her husband in a nursing home and stopped at the store to get something to eat.

As a lifelong @Wikipedia enthusiast, it was surreal to see our article cited on their page–certainly my crowning achievement! Thank you to those who champion Dr. Nash and recognize her contributions to the history of #NSGY. @nallimuthiah @WINSneurosurge1

Last July, we published in @NeurosurgeryCNS the biography of Dr. Dorothy Klenke Nash, the first woman neurosurgeon in the US. Prior to this, her story had largely been lost to history. Today, I discovered her new @Wikipedia page has been created! https://t.co/8iDlYS1NSh #NSGY

An intern on my internal medicine team knows that I plan to pursue #NSGY. Today he asked me to independently review new head imaging for our complex patient. I used this excellent tutorial to work through it and share my findings with my team—Thank you Dr @k_scheitler!

[Kristen Scheitler, M.D., Ph.D. @k_scheitler]

When I was a PGY-1, neuro-oncologist Dr. Darin Carabenciov taught me a quick yet systematic approach to MR imaging of brain lesions. I am on call this weekend and am still utilizing his teachings to this day! A thread: (1/7)

[Elisa Granato @Prokaryota]

planned a big experiment and now I have to do it

[AANS Diversity Committee @AANSDiversity]

Start your weekend with this article showing positive progress in gender diversity in #neurosurgery: while male neurosurgeons outnumber female neurosurgeons 20:1, the ratio among residents stands at 4:1 https://t.co/nQfGjRNXZX #MedEd #advocacy

[Stephanie @stephmcas]

If you are in #nsgy or applying this cycle, please meet my friend @diego_d_luy! We’re classmates at Pitt and have co-written several papers together. He’s going to be an awesome co-resident!!

To anyone interested in a competitive surgical subspecialty but concerned about having a family- I’m a nsgy intern with two kids. I’m happy. My kids are happy. My husband is happy. Do what you love. #neurosurgerymom #womeninneurosurgery #ILookLikeASurgeon #UncNeurosurgery

[Stephanie @stephmcas]

Always so inspired by the tremendous work being done by @UNCneurosurgery to support #WomenInMedicine and elevate role models for those of us who are working to join the field

[UNC Neurosurgery @UNCneurosurgery]

Women represent only 12% of #neurosurgeons in the US & Canada. The brilliant #WomenInMedicine @ #UNCNeurosurgery are working to change that. Thank you to the women in our dept who are expectational educators, mentors, residents & researchers. #WomenInMedicineMonth #WIMMonth

[Stephanie @stephmcas]

This is awesome Danielle, congratulations!!!
