It’s very satisfactory to support, supervise and edit student work to make it ready for publication.
It’s also astonishing to see the hard work of the medical students and their career aspirations.

Learning how to overcome challenges and starting pelvic exenteration in your hospital from @jim_tiernan on "Developing your niche and avoiding burnout".

If you're feeling burned out by the end of the week,
It's not just because of hours worked.
In reality, the roots of burnout run much deeper.
Leaders must learn to recognize when it's happening,
And work to make things better before it's too late:

With as much sincerity as one can muster on social media, I have to say that meeting @Ammar_Darwish1 was the highest honor & a true pleasure. The @NottFoundation is a beacon of hope in a messy world. Stay tuned to @BehindTheKnife for a conversation with this hero.
