Congratulations to David Mundy and our co-authors @DrYanENT and @MattTyler on our latest publication! I truly believe this will allow all sinus surgeons, whether in training or beyond, to operate more safely and confidently! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37578267/

I’m officially an inventor guys! 🥳 When I first started out as a medical student, I would not have dreamed that one day, Stanford’s OTL would file this provisional patent on my behalf!Industry friends - let’s develop this together! techfinder.stanford.edu/technologies/S… #biotech #medtech

Feeling grateful that @StanMedMag took an interest in smell and wrote this piece. (Also a bit of imposter syndrome - the last Stanford Medicine Magazine featured a Nobel Prize winner! This is an amazing and humbling institution to be a part of.) lnkd.in/gS723qNy #anosmia

I just spent half an hour going through a copyedit proof of a chapter I wrote and switching back to “she” and “her” all the pronouns they changed to “he” and “him” in reference to the senior author - yours truly. 😒 #ILookLikeASurgeon #WomenInMedicine #womeninotolaryngology

🩺For all those suffering from #lossofsmell - there are many reasons and only a small number of interventions. Go to @jamanetwork for #olfactoryloss and #olfactorytraining patient education page - patients can access it directly and docs can print it out for their patients!
