Really important tweet from my classmate @OliviaFamilusi. It is so crucial to keep the #minoritytax in mind for honors like AOA, and for residency applications. This work is so much more “practice-changing” than publication #s or test scores, and I hope PDs value it accordingly.
This week alone, I have spent over 14 hours in meetings discussing Diversity and Inclusion efforts at our med school. While important work, I could have used this time for school work and research projects. This is what the minority tax looks like. #BlackintheIvory.

Are you interested in CT surgery? Fill out this survey from @AspiringCTS by tomorrow (Sunday) at midnight! Especially for women and URMs — it is so important for us to advocate for ourselves as part of future generations of CT surgeons! @WomenSurgeons @WomenInThoracic.
Are you an aspiring CT surgeon planning on applying or have already matched into residency in the US? This survey hopes to shed insight into who we are, so we can best serve our interests. Please share!
