It’s very satisfactory to support, supervise and edit student work to make it ready for publication.
It’s also astonishing to see the hard work of the medical students and their career aspirations.

Results of a study that examined the effects of sugary drinks on the progression of colorectal cancer found that the glucose–fructose mix can directly fuel metastasis.

If you're feeling burned out by the end of the week,
It's not just because of hours worked.
In reality, the roots of burnout run much deeper.
Leaders must learn to recognize when it's happening,
And work to make things better before it's too late:

Catchment area of surgeons who would walk 500 miles, and who would walk 500 more, just to be the surgeons who walked 1000 miles to go to the @asgbi 2025 in Edinburgh 🏴🤔

With as much sincerity as one can muster on social media, I have to say that meeting @Ammar_Darwish1 was the highest honor & a true pleasure. The @NottFoundation is a beacon of hope in a messy world. Stay tuned to @BehindTheKnife for a conversation with this hero.
