We hope you all enjoyed #mwfautumnconf21 as much as we did! Thank you @gspencegreen @NeenaModi1 Dr Andrew Mowat @DrLucyHenshall @elinorcleghorn @DocAmali and abstract presenters @GeriatricJnr Dr Asher and Dr Kelly. We hope our delegates enjoyed the day!

Dr @GeriatricJnr shares how often women get told "You look too young to be a doctor" despite being the most senior of junior doctors. And guess what - male registrars don't report to experiencing this as much! #everydaysexism #sexisminmedicine #mwfautumnconf21 @TheBMA

Dr @GeriatricJnr and colleagues share that female registrars get described as bossy whilst their male colleagues are described as leaders - we need to address language around assertiveness #everydaysexism #sexisminmedicine @medicalwomenuk @TheBMA #mwfautumnconf21

@DocAmali on Cultural Safety. #MWFAutumnconference21 #medtwitter

I wrote an acrostic Haiku after giving my talk today. (using the letters M W F) It’s the short summary of my talk! Make time for yourself Work is just one part of life Find your #Ikigai @medicalwomenuk #mwfautumnconf21

I want to give @DrLucyHenshall a big hug for saying ‘Give yourself permission to work how you want to work’. When you’re on the training treadmill you feel stuck in a box pushing on you from all sides. Nobody has given me permission to think like this before!! #mwfautumnconf21
