I think you'll enjoy this deep dive by Patrick Kelly on this topic, super cool!

💬 Viewpoint: Medical education should shift from pattern recognition to critical thinking and pathophysiological reasoning to reduce diagnostic errors and adapt to #AI advancements. #MedEd

@anujtiwari11 I like to think this is how you build your pre-test probablity muscle?

[Vansh Shah @whyvansh]

@drcheruvarun Honestly, the sytem is really geared towards MCQ based pattern recognition over communication skills, building experience at a young stage in your career. We really need a medical education system that incentivizes patient centred care

@aditya_gan3500 @ShreerajT Eradicate is a bit too optimistic, yes
'A thing of the past' was trying to refer to the way the West tends to view the problem.
Humanity has always been at odds with TB, I just hope that India in the future is among the ones able to contain it, as others have in the present

Remember when @theliverdoc called out a misleading congratulatory message from @viditchess a few weeks ago?

Well, @Preddy85 & I unpacked in today's @TheHindu how quackery wrapped in "Hindu Pride" has been implicitly encouraged for years now - Patients be damned.

In med school, I used to try to hide things I didn’t know. If a topic came up and I didn’t know it, I’d say something like, “Uh, er, yeah, yeah, that’s that thing…” At some point during residency, this became exhausting, and I just started saying, “I don’t know what that is.” As far as I could tell, this had no impact on people’s perception of me. And man, did it make my life less stressful.

In 2018, as an analyst and writer with huge expertise in T20 cricket, @fwildecricket (co)-wrote a book with a chapter called "Why RCB Lose".

He has then gone on to join RCB as their head of analysis, and win the IPL.

I think that's pretty fucking cool

@DrAditya2935 I think someone having a net worth that is a significant fraction of the country’s GDP could be very problematic, that would be a hypothetical upper limit in my head for sure

@drgunjand I’d actually take this opportunity to share a really nice channel I came across on YouTube which helped me understand concepts concisely and made reading Khurana so much better+intuitive

@Prasannasimha Case studies, “what would you like to next?” and exploring why certain answers are right/wrong. An important drawback of this is that it needs high participation from the audience
Also, learning how we know what we know about topic has also helped me retain

[Rais Shaikh @rais_shk]

I've written to CM Eknath Shinde Ji demanding strict action against the Dean of Nair Hospital for obstructing the implementation of the #POSH law. We must send a clear message that the safety of our women, especially students, is non-negotiable. It’s time to set a strong example.

@its_adamneely Jared Yee never misses, must be hard to keep the artistic standards away when he's around

@Jomboy_ as a cricket fan who is really getting into baseball, it would be awesome to see you make a video explaining the rules of baseball in cricket terms?
I've seen a lot of people do the other way around but very little for cricket fans interested in baseball

[Vansh Shah @whyvansh]

@jason_ryanmd @amalmattu has a great series of videos on YouTube
Quite accessible, need to know a few basics but the lectures are so fun and engaging that it’s easy to stick through them and take something away, even if you don’t know about ECGs in detail

[Vansh Shah @whyvansh]

@autopsy_surgeon More students in MUHS should read VV Pillay, makes the subject a lot more fun to learn

[Vansh Shah @whyvansh]

@Sports_Fan7 @drsushantshinde Quest impact is real, definitely one of the best parts of MBBS for me and many others

@AdiG1993 TAM TAM TAM

[Vansh Shah @whyvansh]

@ShreerajT The line Ive drawn for what counts as “useful” work during internship is that as long as my work affects patient care in the smallest of ways (be it sample dispatch, accompany or running a test quickly) its worth the hassle! Rest,(try to)politely decline
Hope it works for me! 🤞
