Advice for junior physicians: Start a physical or digital folder. Save every thank you note, patient card, & kind email from a colleague.
On the hardest days when you feel overwhelmed, open that folder. It is a powerful reminder of why we do this work.

The flagella of Helicobacter pylori work like specialised propellers driven by a high-torque rotating motor. These convert chemical energy generated from proton gradients across the bacterial membrane into mechanical rotation. These help the bacteria to navigate the thick mucus of the human stomach to travel from highly acidic areas (pH 2) to areas with a more neutral pH (pH 5.5 to 7.5) where they thrive best.
Using high-resolution electron microscopy imaging, scientists have recently characterised the architecture of this motor which form the building block of flagella, and my god, does this look like a beautiful feat of engineering. 🦠⚙️

Recompensation is reshaping how we understand cirrhosis, but key gaps remain.
Join @salvatore_piano, @elizabeth_verna, and @DrLoomba in two weeks to explore how etiological control enables recompensation, what defines it clinically, and how outcomes may shift for patients. Save your seat: bit.ly/4sclXfg

Love this paper
1. Checking ANA in everyone with elevated ALT is unhelpful, sometimes harmful, usually confusing
2. Biopsy when ALT <100 but ANA elevated is not useful
3. Autoimmune hepatitis is a clinical diagnosis and frequently made DESPITE biopsy findings

Support looks different for everyone.
For some, it’s a stuffed toy.
For you, it might be a colonoscopy.
Colorectal cancer screening saves lives. Most people at average risk should begin screening at 45 years old. Options include colonoscopy (every 10 years if normal) or stool-based tests done at home at recommended intervals.
The goal? Detect and remove precancerous polyps before they become cancer or catch cancer early, when treatment is most effective.
Protect your peace. Protect your colon. Reach out if you need help getting started 💙
