In the run up to #ASME2021, one of our #SoMe interns @shafaq_adnan had a chat with our 2021 New Leaders Award winner @PeterLeadbette2 from @edgehill who we will be hearing from during our Awards Session later this morning!


Feeling called to action by @JuliaBlitz's gently powerful talk at #ASME2021 Moving our institutions from widening participation to *full* participation through "courageous conversations". Learning is uncomfortable!

Enjoying the #WP & selection session at #ASME2021. Powerful results & polished presentation from @Winterg62775581 on the @UKMACS1 project; and a pertinent reminder from the brilliant @KellyLDore that WP is about students 'getting on' in #MedEd, not just 'getting in' 👏

A really important message on trainee wellbeing and balancing demands/resources both in work and separate from work, as we think of supporting our trainees in the choices they make about their careers @astamedis @KirstyA_MedEd @rcpsych #PsychMedEd
