@hyguruprep Don’t compare your method to other people

I’m giving a talk to the incoming M1s on productivity/time management in med school. What are some tips which you used that may be helpful to share? TIA! #MedTwitter

Bringing HER to #PedsICU at @LuriePICU advised by the greatest crew but didn’t want to post their names without permission.

@Erin_pedsMD Thanks :) Which program is this?

Hi #PedsICU ! Does your fellowship program use night float or 24hr call?

Dear @united, Will you be showing World Cup matches live on your flights? Sincerely, A fan flying during the USA v NL match

@LaurenMerzMD I brought it with me on vacation to see how I feel! I cried in undergrad when I read it. But I bet I’ll feel similarly to you now

Anyone else have these night and day experiences reading the House of God before med school and then after residency? #MedTwitter

I first read the House of God before med school. I was horrified and vowed to never be anything like those residents. I finished re-reading House of God today at the end of my medicine residency. I’m horrified by how much I related to the residents’ feelings and experiences.

Most thoughtful welcoming crew! Thrilled to continue the FASEH - Emory collaboration as part of the Global Health Track. @GHOPEmory

Early this week, I shared the statistics of #GunViolence in 2022 @childrensatl. What happened after the ED? #WearOrange is tomorrow! Let’s protect our children. #DoctorsForGunSafety @EmoryPediatrics

Recent events bring gun violence to the forefront of our brains, but it’s a chronic issue. Let’s look at “gunshot wound” as the chief complaint in @childrensatl EDs. 54 encounters since January 1st! #WearOrange this Friday! #DoctorsForGunSafety

We see a lot of injuries due to guns at @childrensatl. wearorange.org happening this Friday! Hoping all my @EmoryPediatrics friends and colleagues will participate to stand against gun violence and promote legislative change.

Shout out to @EmoryPedsRes @childrensatl resident Dr. Vanessa Ford who is presenting today at the @EmoryMedicine 2nd annual Health Equity Day. Vanessa is an @EmoryPediatrics #PRISE resident! #EmoryDOMRYSE #physicianscience #RiR #PSTP @VForPeds @MEVallowe

@BlankFoundation @FayDTwersky @jfunders 2/ Mr. Blank and this foundation does so much, including the generous donation to the new children’s hospital! If part of that donation was used to build a transgender health center, a huge need would be filled in our state.

Our president @FayDTwersky joined the "What Gives?" podcast from @jfunders for a discussion around participatory grantmaking, listening to grantees and the role of philanthropy in the LGBTQ+ rights movement. jfunders.org/podcast_twersk…

@BlankFoundation @FayDTwersky @jfunders 1/ I love to see passion for LGBTQ+ rights! Coincidentally, yesterday, I was practicing an advocacy exercise, a 30 second elevator speech. If I was in an elevator with you, I would bring up how transgender youth healthcare is minimal in the Atlanta healthcare system.

It really matters who your team is when you work overnights

As the US prepares for booster vaccinations, I feel torn. A large global vaccination inequity already exists. I spent this morning looking for where to donate to and want to share and encourage everyone else. $5 gives a vaccine. gogiveone.org #COVID19 #vaccination

It is Day 2 of our food waste challenge. Now that your fridge is clean, it’s time to stock it well! Tip: add how many meals you’ll need each item when shopping. Ex: salad greens - 2 lunches
