Most general surgery residents have heard the story of the plane crash that lead to the modern day algorithm we use to care for trauma patients but I’ve never heard it told this well. It’s as “uneasy” as ABC @EAST_TRAUMA @traumadoctors
How a plane crash in Nebraska gave us the modern ER. Listen now: bit.ly/3uujYXP

Closed out our NYC trip speaking at a live Radiolab event! Kristin talked about the importance of chest compressions and I talked about how fond I am of her chest compressions.

Had so much fun moderating grand rounds by @avirrr on "The Art of [Clinical] Storytelling" at @UCSFChildrens @UCSF today!
tl;dr
1) Storytelling matters
2) It can change your clinical practice
3) It can change patients' experiences, and lives
Huge thx @SandrijnM for hosting us!

@avirrr is visiting from NY, where he is an ER doctor & Asst Prof of Emergency Medicine & Education.
He'll be making you squirm a little as you learn about the fascinating science & history of maggot infections. He may even share a game genie cartridge with you.

Tina Turner was raw. She was powerful. She was unstoppable. And she was unapologetically herself—speaking and singing her truth through joy and pain; triumph and tragedy. Today we join fans around the world in honoring the Queen of Rock and Roll, and a star whose light will never fade.

This week’s Radiolab is one of those ones. It makes me think about the ways enslavement in the US challenges basic assumptions about family, archives, and history. About agency in its wake. @alexandrianeas shared so much here! 😭💙 👏🏾 listen: radiolab.org/podcast/family-…

In 2021, Editor @alexandrianeas's grandfather passed away. On his funeral program, she learned the name of his own father: Wilson Howard. Not Neason. Howard. Listen as Alex searches for answers through cemeteries, libraries, and archives in Louisiana: bit.ly/41TySWz

Stunning 😳
Median age of attrition from EM practice 45.6 for women and 59 for men
Approx 10 years after residency graduation for women 🤯
We need to fix our specialty to prevent this many women from leaving in their prime
