Delighted to be back in Malawi and with MEIRU to finalise some of our data collection in Karonga, to catch up with the team in Lilongwe, and to present some of our findings at the National Public Health Research Dissemination Conference tomorrow. A hectic two weeks, but looking forward to the lake!
Well, that’s @europeanrespsoc.bsky.social Congress wrapped up, and my 13.5 hr train journey home underway. It’s been a privilege to present data from my work with MEIRU on a community survey lung function in Malawi 🇲🇼 & a pleasure to meet so many friends & colleagues - but definitely time for home!
Read this long, difficult but incredibly balanced and nuanced piece last night. Essential reading for all medics, although perhaps not at the end of a long day on call. Really believe that recognising systems factors does not negate the need for personal ownership of mistakes - but very hard to do
Oof - I’m all for @europeanrespsoc.bsky.social plugging ‘take the active option’ for travel at Congress - but after dutifully walking an hour back to my hotel, not overjoyed to be greeted with a room on the 6th floor & an out-of-service lift 😂 I know I’ll be better for it!
After a packed week on the Machine Learning in Wearables course in Oxford (glorious in the sunshine), very excited to be on the train to Amsterdam for @europeanrespsoc.bsky.social Congress, to share our work on lung function in Malawi - poster session 25 tomorrow 8am if anyone wants to come& say hi!
‘All doctors get things wrong. What matters hugely to families in our position is that they have the courage and humility to admit to these mistakes. If they do, it transforms the way you feel about a clinician.’
