My parents didn’t quite understand the need to bring the @DGlaucomflecken unicorn headband to Match (despite having been sent a slew of videos to understand the Match process), but that’s neither here nor there

In undergrad, an NSF-funded program for URM students provided my first-ever research experiences (paid!) & kept me involved in science despite my financial hardships. Then the NSFGRFP provided critical support for me as a grad student. The NSF changed my life. What do we do?

There is a push among some orgs, "moderate" legislators, and even trans people to "give up the sports issue" in hopes that will stop hate. I have watched moderates try this in 23 state houses. It doesn't work. There's no amount of give you can offer that stops them from taking.

People keep saying “We survived him before and it’s no different now”, but it is different. Last time, when the hate speech and personal attacks started, students went to cultural and LGBTQIA+ centers and DEI offices to get support. But many of these places have been shut down.

Because I am getting this question dozens of times in my DMs from trans people/parents... If you're trying to move for safety: Countries: Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Spain, France. States: Any blue state on my risk assessment map, which I'll update post-election.

We have a winner! Anything left vacant and dormant will inevitably become a Spirit Halloween. Very archeologically accurate. 10/10

If only patients had textbook presentations we could memorize…oh wait, THEY DON’T.

it's honestly insane that we expect people to take more than 8 years to become a medical doctor. it should take 2 years max, it's all memorization anyways. it's not technically difficult stuff like math or physics

We’re running practice cases for our oral surgery exam like we’re in an Allstate commercial. “I’m a 52 year old man, and I’ve been in pain for weeks.”

Have a group project on your syllabus this semester? It's great for teaching collaboration, but it can also be ripe with racism and terrible outcomes for students of color if you don't sufficiently support groups. Learn from my mistakes (and research) 🧵
