@PaedSurg speaking about who is research for? #DFTB22
It starts with one. Like tattoos. Many people have one or two published papers. Few stop at three…
Often start with a case study n=1.

Vicki Wade @vickiwade9, proud Noongar woman, passionate about improving disparity for her mob, talking about RHD.
Enjoyed the Welcome to Country yesterday, and reiterates it’s important to her to be welcomed to Country before she does business on Country.
#DFTB22@vickiwade9 talking about the stolen generation, “half-caste and quadroon children”, and whites choosing their favourite-looking child (most fair-skinned) from a group photo (but including a note that if that one was taken by someone else, a different one will be okay). 😳😔

@claski dreamt of talking music and medicine on @ABCClassic but maybe @DFTBubbles#DFTB22 is even better.
Just like her medical role, Clare recognises she’s not the best musician. But she can help others shine.
Clare’s approach to medicine is similar to music. She can play almost any instrument to about Grade 2 standard. 😂 #DFTB22

Burnout. Moral injury when we can’t perform our jobs.
“Distressed doctors don’t bend, so they break”

@jproimos leads out on Day 2 #DFTB22 with maturing adolescent care.
Mid-20th-century, emergence of acute and developmental paediatrics.
How long has adolescence been around? Quite a while…
Joe Brumm: The idea of Bluey is “talking dogs”. It only took afternoon to come up with that idea.
But there’s more to it than that. If episodes aren’t beautifully written, a cynicism permeates the animation studio.
Shout out to the director and crew from Charlie and Lola, for fostering the supportive creative environment.
Online information sometimes questionable, frustrating…
How do we communicate science?
Misinformation rarely comes with a warning label!
