- A few steps closer 90% of #neurology residents apply to fellowships and most apply too early. It is time to turn the page on the Neurology Fellowship Timeline conundrum. Our effort now online in @GreenJournal @AANMember @EricaSchuyler @zach_london Link: n.neurology.org/content/early/…
- A quarter of our current #neurology resident workforce = IMGs on visas. Please don’t make it so that they feel the need to blend in. Let them stand out. 🧠Do not judge applicants because they’re IMGs 🧠Do not judge programs because they train IMGs. @NMatch2022 #neurotwitterMy 3 cents for #Match2022: 1. IMGs are needed & enrich. 2. #IMG does not sum up or define an applicant. They have different shades & stories. Ask about #distancetravelled 3. Prejudice & discrimination hurt. The blanket statement "our program does not take IMGs" will not age well.
