I used to think it was good to be agreeable at meetings. But in fact the opposite is true. Value is from dissenting views. But how to challenge the prevailing view without being “that annoying person?” Have data and an experiment to test your view and pick the right moments.
As covid becomes less acute/more chronic how will academic departments evolve our tri-partite mission? Can education accommodate social distancing? Research teams work in shifts? right care models to keep patients and staff safe?

Fellows of the Mayo Clinic GIH family. It is your destiny to be the leaders that define the future of our field. Lead with empathy and conviction and always keeping our patients as your compass. Thank you all.

At that early stage the most important thing is Be Accountable. Simply stated, deliver on what you say you will do. Builds credibility for the Log Phase that can follow.
What advice would you give an MD starting a career in academic medicine?
My top 4:
1. Find a research skill u love & master it
2. Write a lot
3. Carve out time to think and learn
4. Collaborate
With heavy hearts we begin to celebrate the life and legacy of our beloved colleague Dr. David Ahlquist who passed away on Sunday, November 1. Dave will be remembered as a visionary leader, compassionate clinician, dedicated mentor, and tireless innovator.
Congrats to Dr. Vijay Singh and the Mayo Clinic Arizona’s Research Team. Their article showing fatty acid ethyl esters as biomarkers for alcoholic pancreatitis is the cover story for November’s issue of Gastroenterology!
Always find opportunities to celebrate! Celebrating a beautiful Sunday at Surly Furious Brewery in Minneapolis with the mentoring tree of dr Greg Gores

Some leaders undermine themselves as a way of being humble. Humility is about thinking of others. This is done most effectively by not undermining oneself but rather by being assertive in advocating for others. This is assertive humility.
Thank you all. It’s all about finding solutions for unmet needs of our patients. Training the next generation is one of the best tools to achieve that goal.

@AASLDtweets
Find 30 m each day for deep and unrestrained thinking and 30 m each day for focused writing. As one gets more senior the former is more important than the latter.
