3 blocks of TGH CTU down, only 1 to go! How are we over half way done PGY2 already? So lucky to have such a big team (with some missing) and also to get to do so much teaching with our learners and PAโs.

Hey #MedTwitter! Do the words "culture change" come up often when thinking about your internal medicine program? What does "culture" even mean? We're looking at that very question for our #qualitativeresearchproject.

This is such a good question because it illustrates something that happens a lot in the heme precursor space: the conflation of clinical/public health interested with research interests. Here are my thoughts on the matter ๐งต
@ManniMD1 @ingigerdursv @sykristinsson @iStopMM Please explain why everyone over a certain age shouldnโt be screened for MGUS. Easier and cheaper than a colonoscopy, right? Wouldnโt we know more if we knew more?
