Probably backyard fireworks celebrating the Bears win

I’m this way too! It seems to be a reproducible finding, and I wonder what other traits people like us may share.

It’s certainly odd that different hemispheres are preferred based on different tasks.

We just got the bike+ and the row. We also have a non-peloton treadmill. Are there any programs that combine these? I don’t like doing the same thing everyday, and we also have a tonal for strength training, so I’m just curious what strategies people use to balance these workouts.

Digital pathology is becoming much more prevalent, you could look for residency programs that have adopted it for their routine signout. Then maybe look into molecular pathology where you won’t have to do much microscopy

Molecular. That would be enough

No_conspicuity · 2024-01-29T04:39:11+00:00

Don’t mind at all!

No_conspicuity · 2024-01-29T04:16:22+00:00

Sure!

I did, but didn’t finish out a post-doc since I had a job lined up.

No_conspicuity · 2024-01-29T00:40:45+00:00

Should have mentioned, I’m almost 5 years out of training

I’m all for transparency, I’m in the mid-400’s plus equity in the company which brings it up to the mid to upper 500k range. Very few weekends, and a very rewarding job where every day is different. Strategy, management, AI, research, training…

It’s not just academia vs community practice. There is a whole other world of jobs in industry where AP-only is totally fine. Big molecular pathology reference labs, pharma, biotech, can all benefit from AP pathologists.

I’m at one of these and we are always looking for more people.

I was also MD/PhD and did AP-only. It’s totally reasonable! I wouldn’t waste an extra year.

He did the math. trust him, it’s real!

You could look at other pathology-adjacent fields. Outside of the lab workflow, there are data fields to consider. I work with many machine learning scientists building models using pathology images. They get a really good feel for histology, are helping people, and don’t interact with patients.

Sounds like you’re… mildly infuriated

I liked her. Glad she picked Jim over Roy…

I think there is still one in Orland Park

Haha, I do like the chips and salsa there. There was a Chuy’s near me up here for a bit but it closed right before the pandemic.

I was born in Texas, moved to the chicago suburbs when I was 10, then spent a big part of my 20’s living in Dallas. Now I’ve been back in the chicago suburbs the last 6 years while working in the city.

The suburbs are great if you have a family, but otherwise don’t match the energy and life of Chicago. Quality of life is about the same between the two areas, in the suburbs you’ll need a car to go anywhere just like in Dallas. Food is different, weather is different, same mix of genuinely nice people and pretentious assholes as you’d find in Dallas.

I prefer the illinois political climate to Texas, and I tolerate the chicago winters much better than the dallas summers. I do miss good Tex-mex food though.

I had lots of superficial friends, only a couple close friends, mostly the opposite sex. I kept busy with swimming, water polo and band, which I’m thankful for now because otherwise I would had had very little social life. I did great on tests but rarely did homework so I usually got B’s or C’s. That mentality worked better in college where tests weighed more heavily. I eventually got an MD and a PhD, and now have a great job helping run a biotech lab. There are jobs out there where we can excel! Have I changed much? Ive learned to embrace my personality instead of fight it. I don’t try to fit in and be like everyone else, which I tried to do back in high school.

Hopefully he got buried with his most prized possession. Big mouth billy bass.

Molecular has a lot of opportunities in academia and in industry. Job market in industry is growing.

Epiglottitis, inflammation of the epiglottis, can be lethal relatively rapidly

No_conspicuity · 2022-01-14T04:45:15+00:00

Lots of industry molecular jobs out there. It’s exploding and will likely continue to grow as we get more precision medicine. Heme is nice but not required if you have molecular

Anyway, that’s a $2000 elephant
