The 5 stages of scientific conference development: 1. No one knows you and you don’t know anyone 2. No one knows you but you know everyone 3. Every one knows you and you know everyone 4. Everyone knows you but you don’t know anyone 5. No one knows you and you don’t know anyone

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 👇 #Mentorship #AcademicChatter #PhysicianScientist #CareerAdvice

Note to mentors: remember to warn new mentees that this👇is normal. Although I’m totally used to seeing my work come back to me like this (one of my old grants), it can be shocking the first time. I forgot to warn a new grad student and regrettably caused a lot of distress 🤦‍♀️

CXR quiz: what’s the diagnosis? The newest generation of MDs may not recognize this. It’s a good example of the desperation of the times and the daring of surgeons. #MedTwitter #Pulmonary #CXR #HistoryOfMedicine

Things I’ve learned from being a ICU doctor for 15+ yrs -getting a good hx takes an hour -do a full skin exam -look at rads images before reading the report -have pts/family bring in actual med bottles -sometimes the only thing you can offer a pt is your time, give it to them

What makes a great mentor? Someone who takes the time to do this👇to your grant. This is one of my first attempts at a K08. So thankful that Lorraine Ware took the time to help me become a scientist and who showed me how to be a great mentor.

Advice to early career scientists: don’t give up!! Here is a timeline of grants I submitted (orange) and grants funded (green). The submitted section is incomplete because I ran out of space. Perseverance pays!!!

I joined Twitter last week to follow the coronavirus pandemic and have discovered an unexpected benefit-a strong sense of scientific community. So important right now as all of our scientific meetings are cancelled. Thanks guys!

Here’s a timeline of my career Orange=grants submitted Green=grants funded Lessons learned? -persistence pays -scientist=professional writer -grant writing makes the science better -scientist=entrepreneur. Not every “invention” is a hit (learned this from @ABCSharkTank)

It’s an old surgical treatment for tuberculosis (Tb) a lung infection also known as “consumption”. Since there were no antibiotics at the time, surgeons would collapse the infected lung and fill the space with balls to “suffocate” the Tb. It’s called Plombage.

I wish someone had told me: 1. Breastfeeding REALLY hurts for the first week 2. I would still be wearing maternity clothes for months after the baby was born This knowledge would have saved me a lot of mental anguish. I thought something was wrong with me ☹️

It is a form of calcified granuloma post infection but not from tb. This is post histoplasmosis mediastinal granuloma.
