Not long ago, we learnt of plans to defund the NHS Rainbow Badge project. And now, Scottish Parliament is banning rainbow lanyards. Let's make it clear that we won't accept censorship of our LGBTQ+ patients and colleagues. Show us your flags, badges and lanyards, folks! πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆπŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈβ€οΈ

An exciting result! Better adjuvant treatments are more important than ever with so many more resectable lung tumours now detected by low-dose CT screening 🫁

We spend a huge amount of time teaching our learners to prescribe. We should teach more about deprescribing - not just the why’s but also the how’s. Being confident to know what can and should be stopped and the skills to discuss that are critical.

What a depressing read. Medical students experiencing β€˜non greeting behaviour’ on clinical placements. Not how we should treat our future colleagues or anyone. Say hello, make people feel welcome, learn their names. It shouldn’t need spelt out in a study.

Section 28 banned gay inclusive education in schools for a generation of pupils. It's been 24 years in England and 21 in Scotland since it was repealed. Sad to see history repeating itself with the government's RSHE legal guidance: shorturl.at/vzHQS πŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈ

With neoadjuvant nivolumab approved based on Checkpoint 816, it's a shame that this trial design does not allow us to assert whether post-op treatment has benefit over neoadjuvant therapy alone πŸ€”
