~10 years ago, during my HSS Education Institute new-employee orientation, I chased after Lou Shapiro to introduce myself. After catching him in the staircase, I told him that I hope to be an HSS resident in the future but that I’m taking some time off from Hunter College to support my family

Had the pleasure of presenting my research at the Cornell Center for Health Equity symposium a few weeks ago!

I’m still so annoyed with the “OBGYNs aren’t surgeons” tweet that’s been circulating. I’m having the Chief residents over for dinner tonight as we gear up for graduation this week. And I’ll be starting the evening with a toast celebrating these phenomenal physicians & SURGEONS.

Got to do my first salpingectomy 1st week of my Gyn Onc sub-I! 🥹

This year, OB-GYN applicants used a new system - ResidencyCAS - to apply to residency programs. ACOG just released preliminary application data - and a couple of figures caught my eye. (🧵)
