It was very interesting to see how the residents and attendings in the peds ER reacted to a kid coming in after getting shot by a cop for the capital offense of driving while black. Complete disgust before the cops came and pushing them out of the trauma eval room after the patient showed up

Probably pathology. It's not competitive from what I understand and I just want to have a chill life looking at histology slides. I'm pretty decent at the histology questions on my exams so I hope that's a good sign.

I've been looking in the MD/PHD process and having a hard time understanding what the advantage is job wise. Getting a standard 80/20 split has been very difficult since the 90's, and it's improbable to start up your own lab without having more than 70% protected time. So what exactly do MD PHDS do if they fail to get a grant and start up their own research lab? Do they go 100% clinical, and if not what does a 50% and below research output look like? Is the whole thing just a scam like regular academia?

I think the idea is that by the time you graduate residency you have such a strong network in your field of research that you will never really struggle to get started with independent research and grant writing - there are always spots at the big institutions, especially if you stay where you are
The real cuckolding factor is the time sink, imagine almost being 40 by the time that you're done with residency (if you are doing any subspecialty residencies or fellowships like these MDPHDs always end up doing). Beyond grim

I don't understand what your point is. Literally everyone in medicine except attendings is under supervision of their seniors. You don't get to practice a procedure you've never done before without a senior making sure you don't kill the patient. The only exception to this would be emergencies.
Look Anon you can read all you want, you're not learning how to do procedures without actually doing procedures under supervision. You might as well be asking if you can learn to box by just watching youtube videos but never hitting a bag, let alone sparring. No, you can't.
>inb4 but what about specs that don't involve any procedures!
A doctor is a doctor first, a specialist second. When someone collapses on the street, you don't get to refuse CPR because you're a pathologist.

The mass media controlled by gchqueer, are calling brain rot tiktok/social media addiction.
However the term was originally used to describe polyamory enduced psychosis, however gchq didn't like that, because without polyamory there wouldn't be an easy to manipulate herd of live stock who a very insecure due to low self esteem and are easily controlled by the mass media with fads and latest manufactured trends, all organised in advanced with gchqs mass media and illegal surveillance.

hello everyone,
strongly suspect i have macular degeneration, as my vision turns black in either eye once a month/every few months, and straight lines are turning wavy in my vision every few days. however, i am only 25. my grandmother also had the condition. i'm afraid of losing my vision but i also don't want to get shots in my eyes as treatment. what do i do

they won't find anything because i don't have any central vision loss yet, i just have the symptoms of blackness covering half my vision and seeing stars in my eyes occasionally. also it happened again two hours ago. that's why i'm asking you

there's more to look for than just central vision... if they don't find anything in the eye then they'll just refer you to your PCP to get bloodwork or other shit checked. if you start with your PCP, theyll probably refer you to optometry/ophthalmology at some point anyway so you can start with either.
