We’re letting med students go home early in 2021

Christmas this year was visiting my grandfather through a window. This week, I was lucky enough to receive my second dose of the COVID vaccine, and my grandfather received his first. Let’s support science, wear a mask, and respect each other, so 2021 can mean holidays together.

A patient who was intubated and sedated told me today that he heard a lot of conversations during that time. And wishes people still greeted him when entering his #ICU room. Even though he could not show a response, he wanted to be included. #MedTwitter #ICURehab #CriticalCare

So thankful to have so many awesome mentors who helped me publish this work! 🤞more to come!

The SSAT Resident & Fellows session reflected the society’s strong commitment to training the next generation. The quality of presentations and discussion made one thing clear: the future of academic GI surgery is in excellent hands. SSAT Digestive Disease Week @gdkennedy88 V. Liana Tsikitis
