Well, I guess it's that time, #medtwitter. I'm (Scot) Carson Callahan, an M4 from McGovern Med School, and I'm applying to #RadOnc residencies for #Match2022. Looking forward to meeting everyone! (I also like comp bio, if you're into that) Oh, and here's my super official ERAS photo:

Signs that you're on the computer too much: you buy a vertical mouse to relieve wrist pain. Source: Me. Right now. Unironically using my newfound pain relief to extend hours on the computer.

Downside: Linux partition has decided to break and become unbootable. Upside: Past me was paranoid and kept all the data on Windows. Upside 2: I now have an excuse to tinker with my main rig.

Every time I go to insert my bibliography Zotero just crashes and this is basically the last thing I need to do for my thesis and I'M LOSING MY MIND

Hi Twitter. I successfully defended my thesis. That's all.

Bro why do trash cans come with pamphlets and info cards? It's a trash can. It holds trash. What other possible information do I need? Is this just practice trash for me to test the trash can? What is big trash can trying to get me to do here?

Super stoked to be joining UW Department of Human Oncology for the next step of training! On a related note - now accepting all cold weather advice.

"Tinker with arduino," they said. "It's not that hard," they said. And now I'm out here having to relearn physics I haven't thought about in a literal decade. ...but at least I turned an LED on?

Hi Twitter. I finally graduated from my MD/PhD program. Mix of emotions, but mainly "oh my God, oh my God, please get me out of here, oh my God."

I have been asked to provide a doctor's note for my crutches. Apparently, no, it can not come from me. What's even the point of this MD anyway?

Yeah like science is hard and all, but have you ever tried to get an R install to play nicely with conda?

Announcing that my free text Biostatistics for Biomedical Research has been significantly updated and turned into a 22 chapter reproducible e-book thanks to RStudio 's Quarto : hbiostat.org/bbr #bbrcourse #Statistics #clinicaltrials #RStats @vandy_biostat @EdgeforScholars

Summary of my experience as a new intern on a heme service: 1) Oh crap I'm the consult for the scary blood labs now 2) Why is the entire hospital thrombocytopenic? 3) Flashbacks to clotting cascades 4) "Spiky bois" should be an acceptable term when describing blood smears

Just wondering if anyone on #medtwitter knows why in 2022 I still have to wait for the Pony Express to deliver my health insurance cards?

Throwback to that time my parents thought they were comedic geniuses for buying me this book.

The shining achievement of my week.
