Absolutely brilliant from @LisaRosenbaum17 - a fantastic piece capturing the voices of doctors in training today and those that train and support them. Also resonating with the current strike here in UK. A must read for both trainees and consultants https://t.co/R9jm1k3QrS

It had been on my reading list ever since it was published 3 years ago, but have finally bought and read @houghhough‘s amazing book of reflections. Such wisdom from such an incredible person and feel totally inspired to be as good a writer thinker, pianist, and human as he is

In an average 19 days in America - the time between the mass shootings in Buffalo and Tulsa - 2,348 people die from gun violence. Every gun death is preventable, and every one of their names and stories should be known.
