Accountability is when someone takes money for a job and fails to use standards or violates standards. Referencing standards when seeking accountability, in a transparent way, is fair game and necessary. Teaching at esteemed institutions = an obligation to deliver quality.
For medical professionals, especially doctors, payment of the critical part on liability.
Good Samaritan protection relies on no payment, often.
Doctors can be served papers up to 25 years later if it was an infant.
That is level of accountability of clinicians

This stuff is really important in #medicine and in #STEM.
Anyone teaching in #STEM needs to have appropriate adherence to standards and ethics and use correct and accepted frameworks
else faculty may be harming students
...while paid.

Lack of standards gives #medbikini
“Other behavior that was deemed unprofessional included comments related to social justice issues such as abortion or guns rights..
.. (AMA) code of ethics relates ..to how (physicians) conduct themselves in society.”

The focus on “bikini” part of #MedBikini made it go viral, get media attention, & effective in retracting
that one paper
BUT did we extract the right lessons?
Why did an IRB approve fake accounts, spying, as a “professionalism” study? Violates ethics.

I get that grabbing media attention and use of power of social media is effective for immediate action. But do we pull it out from the root? Who else grabbed media attention? Oh, Wakefield. Sensational coverage. He had violated ethics but was allowed to.

Why did it ever get this far?
If we only used standards and ethics ALL the time with EVERYONE, not giving a pass to friends, big names, those bringing in 💰💰💰
all this could have been avoided.
Use standards
Be ethical
Especially if teaching

Let me tell you, no one on any IRB or any reviewer of my curricula has ever given me a pass. And I am not looking for any side doors. If I don’t deliver quality results, yes, reject my work and publish quality. Except are we seeing that? realclearscience.com/articles/2018/…
There are gender differences as to who confidently cites themselves or uses certain language
I “talk like” & “act like” a man many times. It works well in certain mostly male spaces. But it offends many, especially women, who have internalized misogyny

Do women, in a female majority field, really lack knowledge, wisdom, insights, innovative thinking to deserve being shut out this way? Or do these metrics represent gender bias? Are good standards being applied fairly and consistently?

Sadly, an ambitious, savvy young woman or man in #STEM would recognize (see prior tweets), a woman leader is a bad place to invest effort. Find a powerful patriarch instead and serve his agenda as he is less embattled and may bring you along with him. pewsocialtrends.org/2018/01/09/wom…
I have seen (and experienced) this SO many times in so many settings
it is how we amplify bias
like who joins whose lab or paper
If we simply used standards and fairness we could avoid this upstream and make female leaders a better bet for young STEM professionals.

What standards were used to create this imbalance? If any standard used it was a standard
that failed...
..to capture what was important for delivering results to all
..on having informed perspectives across diversity
Some standards need updating

I have been doggedly persistent on the @pasmeeting example just as it is so very stark. A picture is worth 1,000 words - contrast of who on the stage and who asking questions from clinical experience in the community was impossible to miss.
Per panel, hard to find speakers
Oh?

This diversity really was not hard to create for #hack4thefuture to humanize #AI in context of #COVID19 #pandemic
If the panel lead at @PASMeeting been committed to diversity, would have gotten names and contact info from Black women asking questions to invite to future panels

You can’t have quality without diversity. Incomplete can’t be quality. Lack of diversity = incomplete. Diversity requires an intersectional approach. Cannot look at one factor alone. We do have to hold ourselves and others accountable to delivering quality.
