Reviewers don’t forget to suggest your postdoctoral mentees as reviewers if you decline a manuscript. Sponsorship is so important with regard to helping someone develop a national reputation!

Tip of the day for early career folks: use Dr. or credentials, not both. For instance, I’m either Dr. Courtney Lynch or Courtney Lynch, PhD MPH NOT Dr. Courtney Lynch, PhD MPH

Random mentoring advice: you should subscribe to the eTOC of JAMA and NEJM (and at least skim them each week) regardless of your specialty. It’s a really good way to stay up to date with what is going on in medicine.

Might be a controversial take, but I really don’t care for non-inferiority trials. The inferiority margin chosen is always somewhat arbitrary; so, they’re difficult to interpret.

An election concern that I don’t hear many people talking about… Many young people my son’s age were not taught cursive in school in the US. Some young people had the legitimacy of their votes scrutinized because their signatures don’t match. Folks, they don’t know how to sign their name!!!

My son is applying to college and asked me yesterday what my PhD means. I said Doctor of Philosophy. He said, oh, so you’re an expert in thinking? I said, I guess. This conversation made me realize that I don’t spend enough time really thinking these days. I need to make space for it.
