The advent of an artificial womb raises all kinds of questions. In a @techreview piece @varditravitsky asks “What’s a fetus, what’s a baby, what’s a newborn, what’s birth, what’s viability? #ethics #bioethics #savingpreemies technologyreview.com/2023/09…

If I could give aspiring scientists and trainees one piece of advice it would be this: Find a mentor who cares enough about you to do this 👇

This version of Bach’s first cello suite was recorded live in the Great Smoky Mountains. I’ve always thought of Suite No. 1 as “Nature at Play,” so it was a dream to play it with the birds, the trees, and the rushing brook. ▶️ yoyoma.lnk.to/natureatplay

Any proposed Rx can categorized as ethically impermissible, permissible, or obligatory.

If obligatory, the Rx should be provided to patient, even in face of parental objection.

Should we use this as the blueprint for designing evidence based impactful models of mentoring? We should be strategic in how we implemented mentoring models with measurable performance metrics reported at the organizational level.
What about performance based incentives to support leaders who mentor and sponsor leaders successfully. This is a key part of succession planning to grow leaders within the organization. There is a financial incentive to support this.
