While I wouldn't normally post something like this, reaching a landmark of 100 peer-reviewed publications is something I have been working towards for almost a decade. Going forward, emphasis will be from quantity to quality, leveraging large data sets and AI/ML.

I opened up my email around noon on 4/20 and found I matched at
@HSSProfEd
for my Sports Fellowship. Like most other residents around the country, I went about my day. The clinic, operating room, hospital, patients don’t wait for you; time doesn’t stop for you. (A Thread).
I’ll be speaking at the HSS symposium this weekend combining my favorite things: technology and musculoskeletal health! I’ll be giving two talks on AI in orthopedics so if you have similar interests, reach out!
Only a month away! Presentations will include the latest advances in adult knee & hip arthroplasty, shoulder arthroplasty, joint preservation, advanced rehabilitation, recovery & pain protocols, & advances in sports medicine & spine surgery.

Nadia Nadim fled Afghanistan when she was 11 after her father was killed. She has scored 200 goals. Played for PSG and Man City. Represented Denmark 99 times. Speaks 11 languages.
This week she qualified as a doctor after 5 years of studying whilst playing football.

Great to see this editorial out in AAOS Now! I think most researchers in medicine know this, but maybe we are just now catching up in orthopaedics.

Jeremy, I’m a physician trying to learn ML/DL.l for medical image analysis. Do you think it’s feasible to learn this before ML as long as you have some grasp of Python?

What is the statistical fragility of
#PRP
results for knee OA? In this
@AJSM_SportsMed
study, we found that pooled treatment effects from RCTs comparing
#PRP
to alternative injection therapies were more robust than ~ half of all comparable meta-analyses in medicine.

To support foundation models and the breadth of capabilities of contemporary

, we need to avoid repackaging old datasets and move towards developing repositories that support novel uses.

I would seriously consider getting evaluated for something like a seronegative spondyloarthropathy. Another poster suggested rheumatoid arthritis. These are all pathologies with inflammation of the joints and hands are commonly affected.
@joshuapliu
radiology studies also show significant automation bias which actually detrains radiologists if the models aren’t specifically optimized. this topic is very complex and as someone who wants to integrate radiology assisted AI reads for musculoskeletal health, we are still learnin.
