1. Find your tiger time. This is your most productive writing time of day. I thought mine was in the afternoon, but it’s 9:30 - 10:30am. When you find your tiger time, guard it by blocking it out on your calendar.

@auskiwidog @gnat Nope. No one has left in the last two years. Those leaving went before then.

We don't have underpaid nurses, a barely-surviving healthcare system, teacher shortages, non-existent mental health care, massive teen suicide, and choking transportation infrastructure because tax rates are too high.

Today, Women in Anesthesiology honors the 200th birthday of Elizabeth Blackwell, a pioneer who became the first woman to earn an M.D. degree from an American medical school in 1849. In her remembrance we celebrate the courage and the accomplishments of women physicians everywher

It's 2022, and a privileged, wealthy, well-educated man used the platform of a national paper to tell a survivor of child sexual abuse to smile for a powerful man who has shown zero respect to women. Or stay at home. PvO's attack on @TamePunk was obscene. #EnoughIsEnough #auspol

My poster presentation at #ANES21: In the Age of Video Laryngoscopy, How Comfortable are Anesthesiology Residents with Fiberoptic Intubation? Anesthesiology consultants, do you think VL has impacted your trainees’ comfort with FOI? And if yes, how can we augment training?

Best food in a lockdown = m&ms. What’s yours?

I'm old enough to remember when polio ripped through the globe and put my six-year-old friends into iron lungs. We dutifully lined up at school to get polio shots (without the howling of governors or anti-vaxxers). And we eradicated polio. Why has saving lives become political?
