1/Was sent this by an EM friend who had to interpret this totally outdated scene for her stroke recertification. For real this image is part of a standardized test in 2019??? We decided there were some other images in need of “correcting” #timesuphc#medtwitter#heforshe
2/ “I went to medical school and all I got was a full time job and full time parenting.”
3/ “Mom is an amazing cook all the time, but she brings her A game when taking call for her division and helping me with my math homework”
4/ “Gentlemen may prefer hanes, but I prefer autonomy and my 401K.”
5/ “¥£€%&, even with these blinders on I can see you’re paying me less than you’re paying him.”
6/ “Phillip, there won’t BE any allowance unless I can get back to the cath lab. Now pack those lunches and try not to shrink all my sweaters this time”
7/ Feel free to correct you own. I offer these beauties to get you started.
Posted with full appreciation for the amazing #heforshe men and #timesuphc institutions out there working for #genderequity in health care. Would suggest we incl removing bias in educational materials!
8/ “Dr. H estimates that forgoing oncology halved her lifelong earnings. But she’s grateful that she had other options for practicing medicine — and can still meet her children at the school bus most afternoons.”

2/One quick question before explaining our three proposed approaches. In your opinion, is there a difference between a “Definition” of a thing, and a “Model”? Poll below and feel free to explain your answer:
3/Merriam Webster defines “Definition” as “A statement of the meaning of a word” or “A statement expressing the essential nature of something.”
A definition is, by definition (ha), reductionist. The goal of a definition is clarity, sharp lines, exactitude, immutability.
1/Tweetorial! Exploring a novel conceptual model of the clinical Learning & Working Environment (LWE) #MedEd
Do you wonder what the Clinical LWE *is*? Given the energy we put into making the LWE better, why is this still such a confusing question?
So - can you define the LWE?
2/In July 2017 an @AAIMOnline collaborative was tasked to recommend strategies for LWE improvement. In early discussions we realized we had no shared mental model of the LWE w/ which to systematically approach improvement. 2yrs later we are publishing a conceptual model.
3/Let’s start w/ the model & then explain its development:The LWE is the nesting of personal, relational, curricular, & structural domains as traversed by multiple learners, centered on the needs of individual or populations of patients, & influenced by the sociocultural context
