Global Surgery should not only be about #Research, #publications, & #DataMining! Our people want #ServiceDelivery first.

UK trainees - what do you think about an academic clinical lecturer (i.e. registrar, 50% clinical, 50% academic), in #globalsurgery? learning how to do research across multiple countries (i'm not sending anyone to fix hernias)

#GlobalHealth friends: I wanted to share how some of your HIC institutions are responsible for some brain drain and poor healthcare in LMICs. This month our hospital in Kenya has been hit again, and I wanted to share what that actually means.

A thought provoking blogpost from @GASOC_2015. Some #globalsurgery courses, including @NottFoundation and @oxglobalsurg, offer bursaries. However understandably these are often reserved for international trainees. Is preparatory expense too great a barrier to HIC trainees?

#globalsurgery google search trend volume vs #globalhealth search trend volume over the past year: clear inequity of interest in LMICs at the population level. How do we get the message out? @HarvardPGSSC @RUglobalsurgery @NIHR_GSU

20% done! Keep on liking, sharing, tagging, donating to help bring #UlrickToHarvard!
Few people deserve it more than @ulricksidney, and finances should not prevent this future African leader from being able to join @HarvardPGSSC. #FutureOfTHeOR
6 Apr 2019
The great @ulricksidney was accepted to join @HarvardPGSSC next year. Although the PGSSC always helps to the best of its abilities, Ulrick needs another big push to be able to cover living costs in Boston.
Do support this future leader from #Cameroon: gofundme.com/from-cameroon-t…
