"Find a friend and a faculty member to create change" - George Kim (he/him/his); so proud of my fellow @UofTMDProgram peers who presented our pilot program, iLEAD, that was born out of conversations among friends about social capital and academic success in medicine @COS_UofT

Had a great time chatting with newly matriculated Temerty Medicine medical students Community of Support (COS) about mentorship opportunities through University of Toronto Medical Society, iLEAD, and U of T Department of Surgery, UpSurge cc Adom Bondzi-Simpson, MD, MSc Betty (she/her) Sav Brar

You may have heard you ought to "compartmentalize" your emotions to perform your best - but what is compartmentalization really? Does it manifest in the #hiddencurriculum? Thank you The Wilson Centre for the opportunity to share our work The Moulton Lab on this topic #MedEd #SurgEd

Thank you, Justin Lam! Acknowledging the #hiddencurriculum is so important; "every time we make a choice - react or don't, repeat unprofessional behaviours or seek out more admirable ones - we are feeding something back into the medical culture" (Gaufberg et al 2010) Department of Medicine University of Toronto

Started the week with an excellent lecture by Dr. Sarah Kim on narrative humility in medicine; an inspiring conversation re the contempt and lack of compassion we have for ourselves, lending to the ability to perform under immense pressure, but also poor patient care & burnout

Excited to present the results of our program evaluation of the CASPER Prep Program (cc: @COS_UofT Black Medical Students’ Association at UofO @UofT_OAO) at The 2024 International Congress on Academic Medicine in Vancouver! If interested in hearing the talk, I'm in room Kensington at 8am PST #ICAM2024 AFMC

Had a great time discussing how @COS_UofT programs (SASI, RASI, CPP, MSSP) makes a massive impact in the financial burden associated with the journey to medical school matriculation for applicants who lack financial and social capital! #ICAM2024 AFMC

Thank you Amanda Bell Christina (she/her) & Margaret Boyce McMaster University - Niagara Regional Campus for the excellent workshop on navigating learner mistreatment in medicine; it’s reassuring as a student to see so much engagement from faculty across Canada who sincerely care for our wellbeing #ICAM2024 AFMC

Excellent presentation by maham rehman, soon to be PGY-1 Department of Medicine University of Toronto on the disruption of professional identity formation among medical grads McMaster Health Sciences due to COVID-19; the theme “late bloomer effect” arose due to delays in knowledge acquisition & application #ICAM2024 AFMC

Such a great workshop by Dr. Nirit Bernhard and Dr. Susanna Talarico @UofTMDProgram U of T PGME on promoting wellness among medical students through the UGME ‘Portfolio’ curriculum; it was a reflective (and cathartic) experience to engage in dialogue re burnout #ICAM2024 AFMC

Happy to share that our team QuEST Program's work on equity-focused #qualityimprovement interventions in medicine is now online BMJ Quality & Safety! Very thankful for the mentorship and support from QI scholars Trillium Health Partners Nazia Sharfuddin & University Health Network @Tdbhate tinyurl.com/bmjqs-2023-017…
