This concept took me an entire year to realize in med school because no one ever explained it. How amazing that one of the most experienced heart surgeons in the world made a video to help trainees? @CUMCHeartSource @ThoracicStudent @TSRA_official youtube.com/watch?v=IUN9Gu8Q…

Thousands of people in Philadelphia continue to protest racism and police brutality following the death of George Floyd. Crowds in Center City stretched from the steps of the Art Museum and past the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul. on.nbc10.com/83ticTL

Congratulations to Dr. Colson, future first female President of the AATS! @AATSHQ As said by @EADavidMD in an #AATS2020 talk yesterday, “You can’t be what you don’t see.” So it is very exciting to see more women leaders in CT surgery! @WomenSurgeons @WomenInThoracic

Satisfaction higher in uncomplicated appendicitis for surgery than with antibiotics only (due to some in latter getting recurrent appendicitis), quality of life same. Would you rather have lap appy or trial of antibiotics? #MedTwitter #MedStudentTwitter

Last night, @VergeAero (a company based out of @PennovationWork) flew a drone light show as a tribute to medical staff and essential workers on the frontline of the COVID-19 pandemic. Thanks to @PennAthletics & @PennDPS for their help in coordinating the event.
