- About every other month over the years, someone will send me a link to the video of the guy playing violin during #brainsurgery. At first I was like, “that’s nice.” But now after living with brain cancer for 18 years, I’m like, “You know, for my next surgery, I’m totally going to play violin.”

- PCP: I want to increase your dose of gabapentin for #RLS but the tablet is huge. Pts can’t swallow it. I’m going to prescribe 2 smaller tablets. Me: Have you seen two 750mg tablets of Keppra side by side? Add 200mg of Vimpat & that’s what I’ve been taking in 1 gulp for seizures for 17 yrs. PCP: 😳

- Exciting new initiative from our team here at @opennotes.org! So much hype these days around AI and ambient documentation. We want to bring things back to an earlier era. Even earlier than you think. #opennotes #medsky www.opennotes.org/news/retro-n...

- This is not good. Clearly Hegseth doesn’t realize the massive scope of what DOD funds, including cancer research—an effort to help war veterans who’ve been exposed to harmful chemicals as a result of defending the US. So shortsighted.
- That feeling when you meet up with a fellow #MedX alum and get a group of academics re-thinking the capabilities of patients when we use #healthAI for good. @hugooc.bsky.social is the GOAT! Thank you @riceuniversity.bsky.social for hosting us.

- Reposted by Liz SalmiWe did TWENTY focus groups with patients, care partners, and clinicians to understand what they think about having sensitive information documented in the EHR. I think it's pretty timely!

- Attention patient advocates (including care partners): Who are the cool #palliativecare advocates these days? Has anyone at @aahpm.bsky.social yet figured out a patient scholarship program for their society? Asking for friends. #pallisky #pallonc

- Anyone else here waking up between 3-5am rethinking every figure you submitted with your manuscript, and realizing there was a better way to communicate that information had you gone a different route? Or is it just me? #researchsky #academicsky
