Moderating an @SDAMPP_org webinar on concept inventories lead by @isoCetnar for #medphys #education on this #IDMP2022! Couldn’t be more proud of the hard work done by her group!

Problem is not the term "natural gas", but near mystic reverence of all things "natural". "Natural" is not necessarily better. A disaster that is a "natural" disaster is not preferable. Malnutrition, Smallpox, Polio, Cancer, Getting eaten by a Lion- these are also "natural".

Can we stop putting “natural” in front of “gas”? One of the most successful greenwashing efforts of all time. We don’t call it “natural wind” or “natural sun” - or “natural coal”, for that matter. The nature of gas is that it’s a fossil fuel whose combustion causes climate change

Why do we use godawful blue-background-with-bright-yellow-text for medical school lectures? A 🧵on magic lanterns, darkrooms, path dependence, and “things we do for no reason” 👇

As a conferencing mom, it was definitely a logistical exercise to plan pumping and return of milk safely 😵‍💫 Thanks to @aapmHQ for lactation rooms (I had the luxury of a close hotel room!) I’d love to hear tips and tricks from conferencing moms! #AAPM2022 @MilkStork

From Alaska to Florida, the 10 women and men selected for our 2021 astronaut candidate class bring an incredible range of experience—which they'll use as we explore the Moon and expand our presence in low-Earth orbit. Meet the team: nasa.gov/press-release/nasa-…
