Everyone needs a distraction at the moment. Some time ago I was asked to discuss and demystify #nystagmus - when does it reflect a concerning pathology? Being in isolation with Covid, now seemed time to take on the challenge! An โeye-bogglingโ #tweetorial. #meded #neurotwitter ๐งต

Just been offered my 1st choice neuro-themed #AFP at @CATO_Cambridge. Absolutely over the moon, although it hasn't quite sunk in yet. Massive thank you to all the amazing mentors and friends who have helped me get to this stage.

If you're a current medical student, have your say on the recent removal of educational achievements from the UK Foundation Programme application process #FPAS

Great #neurosurgery careers talk this evening from @mrmikehart and Mr Tom Santarius hosted by @RCSEd and @Cambridge_FTSS. Particularly liked the quote from Mr Santarius "It's OK not to worry about the practicalities and work them out as you go along; it's fine to be an idealist"

This cannot be repeated enough - research is a critical component of delivering high-quality healthcare and not an optional extra ๐
โThere is increasing evidence that shows that patients treated in research active hospitals get better quality of care, even if they are not taking part in a research project." Catch up with why and how we should boost research in the NHS

@iNUGSC 2011 was one of the factors that sparked my initial interest in #neurosurgery, a speciality I may never have considered otherwise.
Thank you to all the amazing speakers, past and present, that have made and continue to make this such an inspiring event! #surgeryrocks
