1/Yesterday’s @BJSurgery article reg: workplace sexual assault and harassment is a harrowing read. It highlights the awful indignities heaped on female colleagues, both by those who perform by word and by deed, also by those who perpetuate and assist such actions by turning away.

The behaviours identified in the research by @wpsms_org have no place in surgical or wider society. We all need to do our part to call it out. Everyone should be able to work in a safe and respectful environment. bit.ly/3riC9SN

Women and men are living different realities: sexual misconduct in surgery is real and needs independent investigation #MeTooSurgery Read our research paper here, and our report with full recommendations on our website academic.oup.com/bjs/advance…

Truly saddened to hear of Kar’s passing. A kind man and so generous with his time and advice when I was a foundation doctor aspiring to a career in orthopaedics. RIP

Really interesting start to the conference from @scarlettmcnally about how best to use perioperative care to improve #greensurgery aims in the #NHS. Prevention is key @OR_UK @bota_uk
We're delighted to partner with @bota_uk to deliver the "Sustainability in Orthopaedic Surgery" conference. I'll be revealing @OR_UK plans for creating a more sustainable MSK health sector, and the allocation of additional funding. This is a completely FREE virtual conference.

Even if you disagree, this is a brilliantly written speech.
.@ZelenskyyUa's tv address to the Russian (!) people might be the most moving speech that I've ever seen in my entire life. The whole world needs to see, understand and share this crucial Ukrainian message. #StandWithUkraine #Ukraine #Україна #Russia #Россия
