@NTFabiano In addition, these fees degrade the quality and integrity of published science. Big COI for journals, leading to less rigorous review for articles that generate profit. Rejection by subscription journals is typically paired w suggested OA alternatives from the same publisher

Overall, the fees researchers must pay for their findings to be open access creates a barrier for open science and more importantly, inequality for those without the outrageous funds to publish. 10/10

Researchers paid $8.968 billion for their findings to be freely accessible. 🧵1/10

I never have because it’s a scam. The real issue is where this industry is heading and how journals need to redesign their practice models

Here’s what Lou Gehrig’s full speech looked like. This was fully improvised, he didn’t even want to talk. Sadly passed away two short years later.

You don’t need more time, you need less distractions. You don’t need motivation, you need self control. You don’t need more resources, you need resourcefulness. You don’t need to be busy, you need more focus.

I can't see how anyone could be educated by a self-propagating system in which people study to pass exams, and teach others to pass exams but nobody knows anything. You learn something by doing it yourself, by asking questions, by thinking, and by experimenting. —Richard Feynman

@Averywalker21 @rbarbosa91 @SeanLangenfeld @SWexner @ASCRS_1 Nice. We've been using it alot lately with what seems to be an icg shortage. Random observation i've had is that the bowel starts to peristals like crazy after intravenous injection...have u seen that?

Brought an old school way to evaluate bowel perfusion. Fluorescein and a Woods Lamp (Hint: The ED always has a woods lamp. You’re anesthesia provider or the pharmacy has the injectable flourescein, 10cc)

All of humanity is in one picture - except for astronaut Michael Collins, who took this picture in July 1969 as part of the Apollo 11 mission 🌎

Most recent from our team, 1st auth @Angela_twhsu PGY2 @LBHealth, roboCRS strongly associated with early DC (14x odds > open; 2x > lap). Early DC associated with ↓ complications, including ↓ bounceback readmission @MarcieFeinman @MarkSoliman @SWexner rdcu.be/dWZfP

@Averywalker21 @LBHealth @SWexner @MarkSoliman @vincentobiasMD @MKatlic Thats great. Curious to know why they taught you - difficulties w scheduling? their initiative or yours?

@yoishwolf @LBHealth @SWexner @MarkSoliman @vincentobiasMD @MKatlic I do my own stents. Taught by the local urologists. 10 min addition to my cases when used.

Ureteral catheterization by the CRS - feasible, practical, and efficient. Should this be integrated into standard CRS training? See our latest publication from Sinai Hospital in Baltimore @LBHealth authors.elsevier.com/a/1jiK5,Op-462… @SWexner @MarkSoliman @vincentobiasMD @MKatlic

The problem is not people being uneducated. The problem is that people are educated just enough to believe what they have been taught, and not educated enough to question anything from what they have been taught. —Professor Richard Feynman

We found that older patients have better pain outcomes compared to younger patients after hemorrhoid surgery. Fellow surgeons - what is your opinion/experience? authors.elsevier.com/a/1jUMt578Xh%7… @MKatlic @vincentobiasMD @SeanLangenfeld @SWexner @SaurNicole @3isac

@nut_history What was his reply?

Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. —@brucelee

My first ever book ❤️

@nut_history There's no way this is accurate. But legends are legends

September 10, 1960 - Mickey Mantle rockets a homerun that measured 634ft. Guinness Records as it as the longest ball ever hit in a major league game.

@SeanLangenfeld @UNMCSurgery @Averywalker21 @JBMatthews @SamAtallahMD @jendavidsmd @KyleCologne @ScottRSteeleMD @JISBMD @JJcolemanMD I could listen to this list all day...now maybe i will :)

For those of you in search of new OR playlists, I humbly present the Billboard Top 40 modern rock tracks for February 1996. I created a playlist last week, and it's getting some serious action with full approval of the @UNMCSurgery resident complement. This may be my new thing when "songs from the year you were born" gets old. Also, how great is "In the meantime" by Spacehog?!?
