A Republican member of Congress reached out to ACOG, the professional organization that represents over 60k OB/Gyns, to warn us - if we mention ANYTHING about abortion during our meeting tomorrow, they will block all ACOG priorities, the voice of women’s health, indefinitely.

This is one of the best examples of leadership I have ever been witness to. Thank you @lubitz_carrie and the Assoc4AcademicSurgery.
Surgeons and all healthcare workers are struggling at unacceptable rates. We are called to action for ourselves and each other. Michigan Surgery

ACLU of Georgia 脇山和貴子 ACLU of Georgia Thanks for working towards this parental right in GA! Unfortunately, @GaDeptPublicHealth has not changed its practice and continues to strictly limit parents' right to designate their child's surname. I previously reached out - would love to work on this! DM me?

This is how you unpack right wing lies that hurt our communities, as only rolandsmartin can serve it up. Reminds me of when Big mama would take you out back as she braided those switches and you knew what was coming.

1/2 LOTS of thoughts about the The Society of Thoracic Surgeons DEBACLE, this week, but 2 that I just cant shake from watching the aftermath:
If you assume that making DEI a priority is somehow incompatible with a meritocracy, you are, it turns out, why there is so much work left to done.

ICYMI: Female residents rate themselves nearly an entire PGY-level lower compared to males; faculty assessments show no difference in EPA levels.

#EPAs could change perception by providing trainees feedback that allows them to better understand progress - ow.ly/pAhL50LWR4S

The findings of the recent NordICC study have called into question the benefit of screening colonoscopy in preventing colorectal cancer. It is vitally important to us to clarify the findings of the study to avoid misinterpretation.

✴️Please read our thoughts in the aftermath of Dobbs on women in Urology Workforce. ✴️

Writing this editorial for Journal of Urology with Kristen R. Scarpato was important to me, as well as therapeutic.

Abortion is health care ‼️

PA Republicans want a constitutional amendment to strip away abortion care. We must:
➡️Ensure a pro-abortion Governor and legislature.
➡️Expand abortion access in PA.
➡️Protect abortion providers from out-of-state prosecution.
➡️Defeat this proposed amendment. 🧵
