ICYMI: so fun to collab w @TheCribsiders and @TravisWCrook - check out our infographics and more on our website. #learnerasteacher #MedEd

Had an absolute blast on a @CurbsidersTeach crossover episode with @TheCribsiders talking about Learners as Teachers! Give it a listen: thecurbsiders.com/cribsiders-pod… #MedEd @VUmedicine @vumcpeds @VUMCChildrenPHM @PrathitKulkarni Welcome any and all conversation on the topic!

Today I learned there is a camera capable of capturing that much talent all in one place. Wow! @VUmedicine

Servant leadership in action; @VUmedicine students are so talented. I am so lucky to get to work with such talented, passionate individuals. I feel equally fortunate to work at an institution that values student-driven curricular improvement. #VandyMed

Amazing and so well deserved! @DrMariu is a gem and one of the reasons why VUMC is such an amazing place!

No tools, no stencils, no talent. Just a basic kitchen knife and a desire to see my boys' faces light up with smiles. Requests this year: skull, spider, black cat. Happy Halloween!

Two of my favorite educators in @espitzrose and @mariehmartin1 sharing their profound global impact. Amazing people, working with an awesome team @vuglobalhealth to change the world for the better.

@kelsey_barter @VUmedicine Our students are so talented that they don't need hype. They DO deserve all the recognition in the world for their accomplishments and I love being able to share in their successes - truly one of the best parts of the job! ❤️

Amazing! I remember when this was a budding idea in questioning "Why do we do this?" in our How Doctors Think course. Tremendous work by @kelsey_barter to really dig in and improve our medical practices! Inspiration->Innovation @VUmedicine #VandyMed

This is one of those don't be sad it's over, be happy that it happened moments. Dr. Yared is an amazing inspiration to students, residents, and faculty alike and I can't even begin to describe how much impact she has had on my development as an educator. @vumcpedsres @vumcpeds

@RachelBrownMSTP @ashasarm @ErinGillaspie @VUmedicine Yes! Conceptualized by the brilliant minds of our own @VUmedicine students and executed to perfection by @ashasarm and @ErinGillaspie. Student driven curriculum innovation resulting in transformational and transferrable education! #VandyMed

@TravisWCrook @ashasarm @ErinGillaspie @VUmedicine Whoa, is this a new thing?? It looks so helpful!

This is what transformative education is all about. Kudos to @ashasarm and @ErinGillaspie for engineering an immersive experience that teaches hands-on, practical skills to prepare @VUmedicine students for the clinical environment! #VandyMed

Super. Star. That's it - that's the tweet @VUMCradiology @ashasarm

Super. Star. That's it - that's the tweet. @VUMCradiology @ashasarm

@VUMCradiology @ashasarm @ReedOmary @cmtomblinson Considering some of our more recent discussions, the last minute or so of this seemed particularly apropos!

The man, the myth, the legend sharing his wisdom with the world! @VUmedicine is so blessed to have such an amazing, dynamic leader. #VandyMed

@DrMarqBrad @ashasarm @VUMCradiology When our students come to me asking for advice on what electives to take, Peds Radiology is always near the top of the list. Important, relevant, translatable, and translational. The top-flight educators of @VUMCradiology provide an unparalleled experience.

@ashasarm @VUMCradiology Residents and medical students have raved to me about their time on Peds radiology.

@lifeofsmilez @ashasarm @VUmedicine @ErinGillaspie You know that there will be always be room for one more talented, passionate educator, @lifeofsmilez. When you are ready, come home to @VUmedicine.

@ashasarm @VUmedicine @ErinGillaspie @TravisWCrook So many awesome pearls! Thanks @ashasarm and @TravisWCrook for organizing and sharing! Kudos to all the volunteer trainee panelists. 🎉😁 Really makes me miss SaT and the many vibrant teaching communities at @VUmedicine.

@ashasarm @ReedOmary @VUmedicine @ErinGillaspie MedEd is just like clinical medicine - multidisciplinary. The more minds that create, the better the product! This huge success is due to our amazing @VUmedicine students, residents, and the passion poured forth by @ashasarm and @ErinGillaspie. #VandyMed

@ReedOmary @ashasarm @VUmedicine @ErinGillaspie Shouldn't that be a guiding principle as educators? Yes, we have to teach the essentials; but there is room to satisfy the "I wish I had been taught that." If we would value it now, we surely could have valued it then! And, hopefully there is significant overlap. #VandyMed

@ashasarm @VUmedicine @ErinGillaspie @TravisWCrook That's really cool. I wish I had this experience when I was in medical school! Thanks, @ashasarm @TravisWCrook & @ErinGillaspie for setting this up.
