- Just heard @jaketapper interview Alabama Secretary of State @JohnHMerrill Kudos to the professionals who work tirelessly to ensure the integrity of elections. #ElectionDay
- This past summer, our family had the privilege of visiting @AuschwitzMuseum . Easily one of the most profound & cherished experiences we've had in our lives. Highly recommend #virtualtour and visiting in person in the future. #NeverForget #Auschwitz#StayAtHome | #VirtualMuseum @AuschwitzMuseum remains closed for visitors but you can still see the site & learn the history of #Auschwitz thanks to our #virtualtour: panorama.auschwitz.org
- It's been an amazing week. Grateful to @RuthVWatkins @MikeGoodMD @srgfin @CSelzman @huntsmancancer @UofUHealth for the opportunities. To my family, mentors, colleagues & friends for the support. And to our trainees & patients who inspire us all. #MedEd
- To those who have reached out and offered support - Thank you. I have had several conversations w/ @STS_CTsurgery executive leadership, and a statement will be out soon. Stay tuned. What happened was terrible. I won't rest until meaningful change occurs
- Congrats to a leading light in CT Surgery, Dr. @leahbackhusmd , on her promotion to Professor @StanfordCTSurg effective June 1st. Be careful folks. Thereโs shattered glass ceiling pieces all around us! #inspirational @SocietyofBAS @WomenInThoracic
- Biggest pet peeve during #COVID19 Pandemic: The terms โEssentialโ & โNon-essentialโ employees. Complete BS. Everyone on the frontlines is essential. Those at home & social distancing are essential. Caregivers are essential Grateful to all #StrongerTogether
- Reminders: - Email is public - There are cameras everywhere - Screenshots are forever Misogyny, racism & unprofessionalism have no place in #academia in 2019. For those claiming โfree speechโ โก๏ธ those in the audience have the right to respond.
- Thanks @Twitter for the honor of verification. Grateful for the platform. And to our amazing tribe members: inspired by all your efforts advancing #science , #publichealth and the quest to do better. Let's go change the world @AmCollSurgeons
- I was told by a โmentorโ early in my career after a grant rejection that I had never accomplished anything in my life. I ended the relationship & found those who believed in me. Best thing I ever did. Lifeโs too short to waste time with naysayers #AcademiaCan we start a thread of the most shitty things youโve ever been told? I donโt think people realize that it takes one second to say something that will be remembered forever. Please be nice to other people.
- Grateful for the opportunity to lead our journal and the amazing editorial team. As the 8th editor of @acsJACS started by Dr. Franklin Martin in 1905, I stand on the shoulders of giants. Looking forward to the work ahead ๐๐พ #ACSCC24 @AmCollSurgeons @RASACS @acsYFA
- Honored to be the 85th President of the Society of University Surgeons @UnivSurg This coming year, I'll share snippets from the history of this organization via #SUSPrezSaturday The 1st SUS President, Dr. Samuel Stabins, was a fascinating pioneer. Enjoy!
