It's all only trolls. This site should be taken down.

Seems like a lot of med students and/or residents are jealous of someone who works hard and is productive. Maybe if they typed words into a manuscript rather than a message board they would be as productive as he is...

Been seeing rumblings on Dan Lim over at UCSF. His research seems to be on developmental neurobiology... seems so out of the wheelhouse from neurosurgery. Why even do neurosurgery if the man operates 1/2 a day a week and then does his non-neurosurgical research?

If you want to innovate in a field, you need top-tier physician-scientists in your discipline. High impact research is basic science research that is published in journals like Cell, Nature, Science and their sub journals. These faculty members with ability in this area need to be supported and trainees should be encouraged to pursue this path. The pressure on trainees specialty to churn out retrospective chart reviews and case series, does very little to move the field forward.

Evaluators mostly emphasis quantity over quality (with the exception of something really massive like a paper in one of the highest impact journals like NEJM, Cell, Nature which most applicants won't have) - otherwise they care more about the number of resume lines

True but you dont have to be a neurosurgeon to tackle fundamental basic science of developmental biology.

Even worse is when you see the same 2-3 med student authors being shuffled around as 2nd, 3rd, and 4th author. Very common at places like Vanderbilt and TJU. |
