Dear #MedTwitter please, please, if you are a licensed medical professional and/or in school to be, do NOT delete your tweets or comply with anyone telling you to do so. It will harm you far more than leaving them up and explaining. Nothing is ever deleted. Can be used in court.

 When I was at Harvard Med School and at an esteemed children's hospital, a case against an esteemed professor, that NO lawyer would touch cuz this was someone who had WRITTEN the textbooks and trained every expert, was won ..based on "a document was deleted" - creating suspicion
"Sunlight is the best disinfectant" you will hear me say OVER and OVER - wins & losses *should* be on data/standards but unfortunately wins & losses are in the court of public opinion. So be reliable, credible, and trustworthy. Transparency is one way to achieve that reputation.
The tweets I delete typically have a typo or the link did not populate the image as I wanted and I *immediately* repost THE SAME tweet, corrected. That way if anyone with "dark web" capacity were to try to "find dirt", ain't none. What you see is what you get.
I have been around the block enuf times, been a public servant w/ strict COI & scrutiny of my every word, & have been "in the room" when we have been deciding billions of dollars of state funding in Medicaid

You can decide whether you trust my advice/PSA
https://t.co/21rQMi8ljS
In fact, in any job interview, I have now learned I need to *warn* any potential employer: I take ethics, safety, quality, transparency VERY seriously. Take it or leave it. If that ain't how you do business, this ain't gonna be a good fit. I limit my choices, but sleep just fine.
I mean, no, I don't sleep a lot, but that's another issue. LOL My conscience is pretty clean apart from the things I realize were secondary harm from my trust in the system & being, what I now know is the so-called "model minority." That being complicit DOES keep me up at night.
Many of us come from cultures of shame - medicine, nursing, religion, "family name", regional culture (say a culture of "grit")

Shame will whisper to you "delete, delete..hide it..be ashamed"

NO

WRONG knee jerk reaction from when we were living in primitive conditions.
This matters on SO many levels. Most on #MedTwitter #NurseTwitter #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter want to have an impact in the world, want to build relationships, want to do #SciComm

First step for ALL of that is trust

Be trustworthy
Do NOT react to your reptilian brain
If you get past "reptile brain", can pause.

Think it through. What is your purpose here? (see above)

What is in your LONG TERM best interest?

Hiding/deleting only makes you look not trustworthy, poor judgment, unreliable.

https://t.co/0jfLqo7xlF

https://t.co/k6UwYwV4e3
Not to be reverse ageist but please consider the life experience & matched professional experience of anyone from whom you take advice.

Now that I am at @MIT & @MITSloanFellows the classmates who "get it" are engineers who must maintain licenses.

Is a #mindset: accountability
If ANYONE tells you to delete, and EVER uses an "or else" threat..just listen to the recent recording of Trump to GA governor. First, even POTUS cannot seem to hide what he does so exactly how do YOU expect to succeed?

Most importantly, NEVER be goaded into being unethical.
Personally, my brain is SO fully of SO many more important things that, long ago, as a child, I realized lying/hiding was just a recipe to fail - I am transparent. Plus, my mom? OMG...NOTHING got past her. Plus am Muslim so a belief I can hide anything would make me delusional.
I'm old school, with my paper chart experience from having worked in community hospitals that were slow to onboard to #EHR as well as my having been an intern a while ago.

You all training on electronic only may feel it is easy to just hit "undo"/delete.

https://t.co/veFz4j1Pqg
Please know that hospital-employed NON-LICENSED HR or communications people will give you BAD advice. I have seen it SO many times. A relative of mine, was asked ("asked") to delete her EHR note documenting the processes to led to a patient discharged from care service.
I can't go into more details and have enough relatives in my extended family in healthcare that I have left that sufficiently vague. That said, this is a CLASSIC example of how a business/communications person will tell you something AGAINST ethics - what attorneys DREAM about.
Never, ever, EVER protect an institution's "reputation" or any boss's/faculty member's pressure on you at the risk of your own credibility. You have tremendous power as a licensed professional that others WILL use for themselves AND leave you to go under the bus when 💩 hits fan.
I know life is complicated & you get a ton of mixed messages. There are people with clear COI who are selling their advice either directly to you and/or to administrators who buy "reputation management" services (in house or consultants). I don't envy today's students/trainees.
Stay very clear in your own head. You are here for your patients. Your credibility & your license are YOURS. Employment or student status, institutions, do NOT define you (you are a mere cog in their system).

YOU define you.
Your credibility is based on consistent data points.
The last needs to be unpacked. You can and will make mistakes. Leave those mistakes up.

The data points I mean are of being factual, using vetted/verified/validated facts, leaving UP when you make a mistake.

Have a "paper trail" that shows transparency & honesty.
Not that we should be here for the "clicks" but if you need a metric of success of documenting failures, this is probably my single most popular tweet > 7K likes. You can look at the metrics yourself. I'm kinda a numbers shmumbers kinda gal tbh.

https://t.co/umWeKEtieT
Meaning, numbers not what excite me. Impact does. Metrics are important but we all know they are not the whole story yet we overfixate on numbers/metrics, often withOUT questioning their value, definitions, or true impact.

That is the other thing, please refocus on impact.
If you follow me you likely already are a "change the world" type and/or seek to have an impact & likely seek to destigmatize. You also likely are trying to show some kind of leadership. Leaders MUST lead by example. Be the leader who can leave any error up with confidence.
You can always respond, retweet with an explanation.

Will some people do "gotcha' screenshots? Yes.

It is impossible to avoid all misinterpretation or bad faith misuse.

If that worries you, then just post less or not at all. No one *has* to have a social media presence.
I know there is a lot of talk these days on #cancelculture. Everyone hates it (yet people who are most vocal about it seem to be super inconsistent with their words & actual actions).

That is just the world we live in.

It's not easy.
Titrate your exposure/risk to your comfort.
Personally, being Muslim, if I breathe = a "terrorist." I will ALWAYS be "gotcha" vilified by immutable things about my identity. This has made me more risk tolerant.

Gave me A LOT of practice early in life about navigating these complexities prior to social media screenshots.
I think some others did not have this experience of constant bullying from your earliest memories like I do. Bullying affects people in different ways. I finally saw thru it - it is about the other person's insecurity, fear, need for power, manipulation. https://t.co/5dqZ373fJh
I would not wish the multitude of experiences that give me "grit" on anyone else, tbh. I would LOVE you all to spend your energy/time on not just surviving but going out and making this world better (not developing chronic illnesses from chronic stress).

https://t.co/YoextwHK2u
It has made me skilled effective in high profile, high risk roles: where I when I am an expert witness in a Grand Jury trial for the AG's office, when enforcing quality standards going toe-to-toe with another CMO, when I negotiate out of a bad employment situation, etc.
In ALL of these types of leadership & many others, they WILL try ad hominem

If you lose your cool, you lose
If you get nervous about an "error" or by an overt or an implied threat, you lose
If you doubt yourself & backtrack (delete), you lose

Don't set your own self up to lose
Failing fast & failing often is different from setting yourself up to lose/fail. First is driven by #improvement #mindset of #engineering and #systemsthinking to identify vulnerabilities and correct. Latter is poor #strategy, preparation, or poor decision making under pressure.
The #narrative is taught as the goal by so called #SciComm or #communications or #marketing folks who are bad at what they do. Those good at this do #valuesbased "marketing." A non-negotiable must be ethics, credibility, reliability. https://t.co/wb2vgDImqz.
The #narrative, in fact, is how you tell the story of the #data points that are REAL of your consistent commitment to your #values. The other thing you find with low ethics/bad at their job people is manufacturing "evidence" posthoc to craft a fake narrative. Don't be that.
I am intentional on what "record" I create. This had value on many levels. I do genuinely want to provide a free resource, vetted & validated by @AAMC standards to #MedEd

these are my values: marginalized populations, multidisciplinary, #mentalhealth, etc https://t.co/tVjZNbgsVY
This is another intentional use of my time/talent for #AI #futureofwork #diversity #policy #healthcare #innovation

If I get one tweet or a few tweets wrong, will it end a career? It is possible. Anything is possible. Unlikely, given my track record.

https://t.co/qbUGmmkoQq
I worry about you all, tho, in early career

often getting bad advice from:

non-clinician “consultants”
or
faculty from this era of old boy network where they *could* delete, erase, and make inconvenient people disappear (kill someone’s career or professional reputation)
None of them will face the accountability that YOU face
“growing up” professionally in an era of high accountability & high transparency

You aren’t a gray-haired professor w/old boy network who can leverage contacts to do #MedBikini types of ethics shortcuts & gamble not caught
I know because I don’t get those kinds of passes myself

I have to check off every single box in exactly the right order = 100+ edits

if I don’t, my high-quality publication that gets glowing reviewer comments

still rejected/delayed

many women experience this @JulieSilverMD

Want to include the menstrual cycle in your scientific work, but aren't sure how to do it? My lab (@katjaschmalen) have just published an article on best practices for observational studies of the cycle! Thread below! 🧵

Despite decades of research on the menstrual cycle, empirical studies have not adopted consistent methods for operationalizing the menstrual cycle, resulting in confusion in the literature and limited possibilities to conduct systematic reviews and meta-analyses.

Below, I summarize this "how to" article, and relay some of the key points!

PARTICIPANTS: All participants should be naturally-cycling people with ovaries (remember that they are not necessarily "women"! 🏳️‍⚧️ ⚧).

We provide a Reproductive Status Questionnaire with rules for identifying naturally-cycling people (current function of the sexual organs and hormonal/other medications that stop the cycle).

Thread:
I'm thinking about Tim Keller's influence.

There is the curious fact that Keller is well-regarded among the culture elite (or at least has not suffered the sort of vilification one might expect given his influence). How can we explain this?

Looking at Prodigal God and other writings, you see that his approach to urban ministry is deeply political in a way that appeals to Democrat-heavy cities. It involves two moves:

1) equalizing sins: elevating the sin of hypocrisy, "moralism," and "religion" (the sins of "conservatives") and equating these with the sins tolerated among liberal (e.g., homosexuality)
&
2) emphasizing "self-righteousness" as a sort of chief sin (the sin of "red states").

Keller effectively downplays the sins that liberals tolerate while elevating the sins of their political enemies, the red state conservatives.

But the greatest appeal to liberals is that critiquing the "self-righteous" vilifies political action, particularly the action of social conservatives (e.g., anti-gay marriage). And the equalization of sins eases concerns over changes in social policy (e.g., gay marriage).

I am no psychiatrist or therapist, but I have been on the receiving end of verbal abuse, multiple times over decades, and managed to escape and recover from (most of) the trauma. I'm not sure that really "qualifies" me to say the following, in the academic sense, but...1/

I am seeing the press engaging in what I would call verbal abuse. When you invite a "guest" onto a program to present his or her POV, or to discuss their "expert" opinion on a subject, and then laugh at them, roll your eyes and talk over them, ask only rhetorical questions 2/

...and then accuse the guest of harming/doing disservice to the audience, you are behaving like an abuser. You are "informing" no one of anything other than your willingness to bully and abuse other human beings. Hosts with honest disagreements can and should ASK questions 3/

The hallmark of sincere disagreement is the listener who first checks for understanding of the speaker's POV, then asks why they say that. The host could challenge their arguments on the merits, with their evidence, then allow the guest to respond. This is how adults act. 4/

Immature, irrational, indoctrinated, and/or abusive, people talk OVER, mock, belittle, and accuse guests with different points of view of being "dangerous" or "harming" viewers/listeners. This is the behavior of deeply insecure people who know their ideas lack merit. 5/

Some thoughts on this: Firstly, it might be personal preference, but I am not keen on this kind of campaign as I feel like it trivialises cancer. Sometimes the serious message gets lost because people are sharing pics of cats or whatever and the important context is gone.


More importantly, the statistic being used in the campaign is misleading. It says 57% of women put off cervical screening if they can't get waxed. But on further investigation, that's not accurate.

The page here goes on to say "57% of women who regularly have their pubic hair professionally removed would put off attending their cervical screening appointment if they hadn’t been able to visit a beauty salon."

So the 57% represents a concern not across the whole population of women, but only those who regularly get waxed. So how big of an issue is this across the whole population? And what else is stopping people getting smears?

I think campaigns for cancer screening are really tricky because there is so much nuance that often doesn't fit into a catchy headline or hashtag. It's certainly not easy and is part of a bigger conversation.

THE BATTLE OF TALIKOTA and the destruction of Vijaynagar (Hampi)
26 January 1565

A tale of valor, deception and decimation.

A grim reminder that if we fail to protect our heritage, it will eventually crumble under the onslaught of "forces of anarchy".
(Elaborate thread)


This decisive battle was fought between the Vijayanagara empire and the Deccan sultanates resulting in a rout of Vijayanagara and ending the last major medieval era Hindu kingdom in south India.(1)

The seeds of 1565 encounter were sown more than 250 years earlier when the forces of the Delhi Sultanate, during the time of Alauddin Khilji and later Md Bin Tughlaq swept through southern India in an expansion spree.(2)

By middle of the 14th century, facing rebellions, Tughlaq withdrew to Delhi, leaving behind 2 empires, Bahmani, which ruled the Deccan from Kalaburagi, and Vijayanagara, which ruled most south India with its capital at Vijayanagar.(3)

The Raichur Doab, between the Krishna and Tungabhadra rivers, existed as a natural boundary between these two kingdoms, with wars often breaking out over control of this territory.(4)
