If clinical academics were a species we would be on an endangered list, and very high up it.
As I try to shift the mindset on presentation in my new institution from the slide doing the work to the presenter this hits
🇯🇵 have a phrase, wabi-sabi (侘寂), embracing the unique, worn, & unfinished qualities of life above chasing an ideal of flawlessness
Use #slidewabisabi

Most people in the department couldn't understand why we were using it
Today optogenetics wins the Nobel Prize
Funny old game

Pick any medical specialty other than your own. Who’s the most famous physician in it? You probably can’t name one.
Almost none of us will be known outside our field, and even those who achieve real professional fame are mostly forgotten within a few decades.
Fame is a poor reason to devote your life to medicine. The work itself matters more: caring for patients, discovering new knowledge, and teaching the next generation.
