Well done @fionamurph9 on presenting and representing the Irish ID sphere in Europe. Nice to get to meet old colleagues too.

Very simple and useful test that everyone who fixes ankle fractures can do. @DessieGibson_ @Drlyndonmason

Grateful to @M2020Ni who opened todays #RCSICharter fascinating virtual talk about on her time as the @RCSI_Irl @Olympus_Corp PROGRESS Fellow 2023. Amazing MIS work in foot & ankle surgery! Heartening to see female orthopaedic trainees excelling around the world @AWSIreland

It's taken a lifetimes work but finally my mentor, Prof John Wong has finally published his textbook on Muller Weiss Disease (MWD) A very complex disorder of the midfoot which is challenging to treat and operate. He's truly a world expert in MWD! 👏 amazon.co.uk/Comprehensive-G…

My favourite Mícheál Ó Muircheartaigh quotes: "Seán Óg Ó hAilpín. His father's from Fermanagh. His mother's from Fiji. Neither a hurling stronghold." "The stopwatch has stopped. It’s up to God and the referee now. The referee is Pat Horan. God is God." "Teddy McCarthy to John McCarthy, no relation. John McCarthy to Teddy McCarthy, still no relation." "Anthony Lynch, the Cork corner-back, will be the last person to let you down. His people are undertakers." "1.5 to 0.8 - well, from Lapland to the Antarctic, that’s level scores in any man’s language." "I saw a few Sligo people at Mass in Gardiner Street this morning and the omens seem to be good for them. The priest was wearing the same colours as the Sligo jersey. 40 yards out on the Hogan Stand side of the field, Ciarán Whelan goes on a rampage, and it’s a goal. So much for religion!" "Pat Fox out to the 40 and grabs the sliotar. I bought a dog from his father last week. Fox turns and sprints for goal. The dog ran a great race last Tuesday in Limerick. Fox to the 21, fires a shot, it goes to the left and wide. And the dog lost as well." "He grabs the sliothar. He's on the 50. He's on the 40. He's on the 30. He's on the ground." "Colin Corkery on the 45 lets it go with the right boot. It's over the bar. This man shouldn’t be playing football. He’s made an almost Lazarus-like recovery from a heart condition. Lazarus was a great man, but he couldn’t kick points like Colin Corkery." "Pat Fox has it on his hurl and is motoring well now, but here comes Joe Rabbitte hot on his tail. I’ve seen it all now, a Rabbitte chasing a Fox around Croke Park." "He’s not a big man, he’s not a small man, he’s what you might call a handyman." "Brian Dooher is down injured. And while he is, I’ll tell you a little story. I was in Times Square in New York last week, and I was missing the Championship back home. So I approached a newsstand, and I said, 'I suppose ye wouldn’t have The Kerryman, would ya?' To which, the Egyptian behind the counter turned to me, and he said, 'Do you want the North Kerry edition or the South Kerry edition?' He had both so I bought both. And Dooher is back on his feet."

Somehow, because of Australian building regulations and physics or something… …it’s colder in my flat than outside. Like…We have the heating on and are under a blanket and… …it’s 16° outside. But *freezing* cold indoors Australian winter makes no sense. #medtwitter

#SundayWiMIN24 Week 4: Dr Kathleen Lynn (1874-1955) Today is the 150th birthday of Dr Kathleen Lynn, who was arguably the most influential female doctor in Ireland since women were permitted to enter medical training here. She has (of course!) been featured by WiMIN before. 🧵

A very "hearty" congrats to my brother Robert on defending his PhD successfully.

Finally had the chance to listen to this insightful and emotive podcast from my @UCCMedHealth classmate @drdoireann. Thanks for continuing to raise awareness about gynae cancers- as well as preventative screening programmes @NSShse. Looking forward to more episodes!

Congrats to my brother Robert for a very successful last 6 months in GUH.

So proud of my mom. Dr Marion Broderick who retired this week after 42 years as the GP for Aran. Practiced medicine on land, sea and in the air. Its wasn't a job to her but a vocation. The hardest working person I know. Time for feet up and bird watching mom. Well done.

People with sleep problems may be more likely to have a stroke A global study into causes of stroke, co-led by Dr Christine McCarthy @uniofgalway has identified that sleep problems can increase the likelihood of having a stroke. #INTERSTROKE tinyurl.com/2p8ub5r7
