#teaching and #patientcare are punishments and inconveniences. You heard it here first.
(Those two are literally the only parts of the job in #academicmedicine that I enjoy)
Whatever my future in academic medicine, it has been my mission in #FacultySenate to change this, and making small inroads
My entire disillusionment with #academicmedicine. What are we even doing here:
“pitfalls can sink careers of promising academics…say “no” to projects that will not advance promotion and tenure…the most common problem I see with junior faculty. They love to teach, they love to take care of patients”

I got a request from someone I did not know to write a letter of recommendation for promotion for another person I did not know. I was really surprised, but apparently this is not unheard of in academia? #academicmedicine #medsky
When the best #clinicians at your #hospital have zero ability to move up the chain, there is something really wrong with your incentive structure. Unlike this very venerable #physician, I highly doubt the equivalent talented clinicians will dedicate 33+ years to #academicmedicine - they'll leave
I also agree with this article that #academicmedicine is a caste system and the #clinical track are lower caste even though that track does 90%+ of the #patientcare. It's especially exasperating when you see wait times stretching to 6 months to 1 year for certain specialties

They shouldn’t, but they will because I have never seen greater collective cowardice than in #academicmedicine
I’m feeling increasingly pessimistic about #academia and feel ready to leave #academicmedicine because I have not seen one single university with an attached #hospital that has met the moment. Not a single one.
(I know nothing about this guy, but the lack of transparency here is appalling)
Congratulations to Dr. Bernard P. Chang on being awarded tenure at Columbia University, becoming the first faculty member in our department’s history to receive this distinction!

Rett syndrome affects 1 in 10,000 girls and has no cure. But new #research from @bcmhouston.bsky.social and Texas Children's is changing that. This is the kind of foundational science that happens across #academicmedicine.
Our reviewers make it possible.
Thank you to the Annals reviewers who dedicate their time to strengthening the science.
✨ Check out this year’s distinguished and top reviewers.

Truly humiliating and another nail in coffin of #academicmedicine.
“The Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME) removed language from its standards that urged medical schools to teach health inequities…how factors such as housing, food access and transportation, can shape a patient’s health”

Basically anything from Division Chair to Department Chair to any level of Dean requires tenure, but it seems like a lot of other places are already seeing the writing on the wall and are adapting to a post- #tenure world in #academicmedicine to survive.
We won’t make it unless we change.
I had an interesting conversation with one of my co- #healthpolicy fellows who is in #academicmedicine. Said at their institution can become an Associate Dean from the #clinical track, and was shocked when I said #tenure is required for any leadership roles at my #hospital. 🤷🏻♀️

As AI tools become increasingly integrated into #academicmedicine, we’re focused on fair and equitable access, transparent usage, and clear guidance on where #AI can support — rather than replace — human judgment.
As @aamc.org marks 150 years, I reflected on the future of academic medicine in our Voices of Leadership series — and how evolving medical education prepares a continually learning, adaptable physician workforce.

I get it, #academicmedicine feels like a scam sometimes. my dudes, I may be writing a bill next week to prevent CMS enrolling #olderadults in #MedicareAdvantage without their consent and be forced into #priorauth
This affects clinical practice far more than Journal of 5 people read in last 20 years
#academicmedicine everywhere is the most reactionary institution in this country, and private practices have been taken over by #privateequity and make you treat #patientcare like an assembly line factory, and I don’t want to completely stop seeing patients
Help.
Oh boy. I thought Gilliam was good, but the one thing I have learned about #academia the last couple of years is it never fails to disappoint me.
I have become so jaded 🤦🏻♀️ like more than COVID level cynical about #academicmedicine
