  Neuroplastic/reconstructive neuro-surgery
Posted by: Guest - 05-19-2023, 04:37 PM - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (6)

What are your thoughts on this? It sounds very cool, but only a few top places have them. Why is that? What is the future of this area? Is it like radiosurgery or functional? Will it take off? How come more surgeons don't practice if results can be so good?

  Cringe Med Students on Twitter
Posted by: Guest - 05-19-2023, 01:56 PM - Forum: General interest - Replies (41)

I hardly use social media but recently visit the cesspool that is of twitter. What’s up with these medical students tweeting out to institutions and PDs how “excited” they are for their sub-I? Sounds incredibly sycophantic to me. They also tweet out their bs research article thinking that people are going to read their low effort article. Even saw one girl posting her third year clerkship grades. What ever happened to being humble? Concerning trend if you tell me.

  AHN Sub I Prep Course
Posted by: Guest - 05-19-2023, 12:39 PM - Forum: General interest - No Replies

Hey everyone! Just a reminder that we're holding the AHN Sub I Prep Course on May 27 and 28. 

We started this last year as the first ever Sub I prep Course open to all medical students. It is targeted for third years preparing to enter the intense sub-I rotations. We got a lot of positive feedback from the almost 100 attendees we had last year. We made some changes that we think will make this year even better.

The course will be two days long (Saturday and Sunday), from 8-noon both days, all through Zoom. This is about learning the actual things that will help you succeed in your sub-I's, the things no one really tells you. This is resident run completely and so everything will be unfiltered. Use the link below to sign up if you haven't and you are interested. Looking forward to seeing you all there!

  Employee Health Screenings

Do any of you here have experience with employee health screenings with existing diagnosis of ADHD currently on stimulants? Trying to figure out precisely how to navigate this in the coming months.

  Paternity/Maternity Leave
Posted by: Glioma - 05-06-2023, 05:04 PM - Forum: General resident issues - Replies (8)

Curious how does your program handle paternity and maternity leave? With the new ACGME rule, residents are allowed to take up to 6 weeks of paid paternity leave if residents have enough PTO in their banks. 

- What about maternity leave?
- What about faculty, do institutions give paid paternity/maternity leave for faculty outside vacation time?
