Residency programs who only give 6 weeks of maternity leave or less, who hurt you??? Seriously. It’s unacceptable.

A deep learning based view classifier for intraoperative TEE videos. Will open up huge opportunities for further downstream analyses of this complicated (but clinically rich) imaging dataset! nature.com/articles/s41598-0… #Echo #AI #ML

Them: "The MD-PhD pipeline is broken" Who broke it? The expectation these days is that after doing a full MD, PhD, a residency and maybe even a clinical fellowship, you have to do a postdoc and secure funding before being given a "real" job. Most people don't have that privilege.
Falling behind: postdocs in their thirties tire of putting life on hold. Read the results of Nature’s second global survey of postdoctoral researchers go.nature.com/3Qtd4hI

Using the @CedarsSinaiMed #echofirst database, we trained an AI model to identify TEE views, and validated its performance on @StanfordMed TEEs to show generalizable strong accuracy. 3/n

Intraoperative and intraprocedural TEE data is a rich source of realtime information about cardiac physiology, hemodynamics, and patient condition. However, it's locked in unstructured data and not linked to surgical procedures or outcomes. 2/n
