I see. The figure just depicts when kids first use each technology, not how this relates to their performance on standardized testing.

CHOP'S 8th Immune Dysregulation Course will be held in person and virtually on June 10th. It will be a buffet of great speakers discussing inflammation in immune-privledged sites. Thanks to generous support from the Jeffrey Modell Foundation, registration and CME credit is completely free.

Project Hail Mary is a beautiful brilliant film. But molecular biologists be warned there's a deeply disturbing scene midway through when Ryan Gosling's scientist places two eppendorfs directly next to each other in an otherwise empty unbalanced microcentrifuge & sets it spinning with wild abandon.

His congressional voting record overwhelmingly pro-woman and pro-civil rights. All his money is from selling books. He ranks near the bottom of all congress persons in net worth. I don’t understand your point of view. Can you elaborate?

I don’t think that is an apt analogy for medical residents. These are 25 yo+ adults who have at minimum 8 years of pre-med and medical school training. They work in supportive teams consisting of attending physicians, nurses, other residents and medical students.

Richard, no offense, but I don’t think you are interpreting this data correctly.

No worries. It is a hard career, especially in the beginning and yes it takes a toll, but if you’re in it for the right reasons it is totally worth it. Pushing yourself is part of it. Testing your metal It really helps to have a supportive family 😉. Sounds like your son does.

My experience, I was not sleep deprived. I worked 6 days a week, 10 hrs/day with one overnight. I had a bedroom for the overnight and used it. That’s how you get 10,000 hrs. of experience in 3 years. The alternative is worse doctors or longer residencies. Ask patients and doctors if either is good.

Hi, Here is a meta-analysis of 27 studies: pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC... “27 studies met inclusion criteria. Most frequently, the studies concluded that the restrictions had no impact on patient care (50%) or resident wellness (47%), and had a negative impact on resident education (64%)”
