If youโ€™re a program director, dept chair, dean, etc., will you reward #diversity , outreach, or #antiracism initiatives the same way you reward publications and โ€œtraditionalโ€ metrics? This work takes ALL of us, not just the diversity rep in your group.

It finally happened todayโ€ฆ my attending told me to choose the OR music ๐Ÿ˜ฑ So obviously I chose early 2000s hip hop and R&B. And did we both catch each other dancing at least once during the case? Yep!

Earlier this week, a surgeon thanked me for lightening the mood when a patient was crying. As med students, we donโ€™t always know the best treatment options or all the anatomy of an operation. But we know how to be kind & empathetic, and that counts for something. #MedTwitter

Last night, my very old computer died during an evening business school class. I messaged my med school administrators, and, within 30 minutes, there was a plan for me to pick a loaner laptop before my morning interview. Thank you @UMichMedSchool ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿซถ
