A ground-breaking study confirms what we have been saying for decades — that training is the most effective and sustainable way to address the unmet surgical burden of disease in low-income countries. Learn more: bit.ly/3TDBWnv

"You are a high-performer. Are you living a high-performance life?"
Dr. @GraemeRosenberg @KeckMedicineUSC highlights that our infrastructure is not built around high performance, but we can take important steps.
"It's not an us-problem; it is a systems-problem."

Burns are a global problem causing not just disability and death, but social isolation that is hard to fully appreciate. Had a great session together on our global plastic surgery work this week with @rredett @ChaoLongAzad at the Johns Hopkins Global Surgery Symposium.
A year ago Dr. Rose Alenyo hosted us at her hospital @kirudduNRH in Uganda, and this week we hosted her at @HopkinsMedicine @HopkinsPlastic. This bidirectional learning and teaching is what it's all about! #globalsurgery @cosecsa @ReSurge @JHGlobalSurgery
Happy to have #plasticsurgeon Dr. Rose Alenyo from @kirudduNRH Kampala, Uganda as a visiting surgeon @HopkinsPlastic. @ChaoLongAzad @cosecsa @ReSurge
Lucky to work with and learn from these two role models who set the high bar for patient care that I aspire to!
I have rounded on my patients nearly every Saturday for 30 years. I like weekend rounds and it’s always better when you can do it with the residents like @HopkinsPlastic Scott Sylvester.

Doing MORE trauma neurosurgery is GOOD for patients. Love studies that confirm my biases;) Well presented by @tdazad and clearly well supervised by @elliotthaut and @DctrJByrne

Guidelines recommend BMD testing after fragility fx, yet we found low testing rates (12%) after distal radius fx. Those tested had lower rates of subsequent fx
Hand surgeons- referring pts w low energy DRF for osteoporosis w/u can ensure early dx & prevent future fx!

Commemorating the trailblazing spirit of E. Blackwell, MD, who in 1849 became the first American woman to earn a medical degree, we honor the vital roles that @WomenSurgeons play in patient care, medical research, education and leadership in #plasticsurgery. #NWPD @HopkinsPlastic

Congratulation to Tej Azad (@tdazad) on a brilliant presentation at the @acsTrauma Region III Resident Paper Competition today. Truly a multi-talented rising star bridging the worlds of neurosurgery and trauma.

Thank you Dr. Jayme Bertelli for visiting @cnhc_research in Baltimore last Thursday! Dr. Bertelli is currently a world reference in brachial plexus treatment. Our fellows and trainees learned a great deal in the lab and from his talks. We look forward to seeing you again! – at Baltimore, MD
