I would agree with this take IF the academic publishing market didn’t make BILLIONS off peer reviewers’ free labor. If it was all free and open access - then totally! Community service! But in 2025 Elsevier made $3.5 billion. Springer Nature made $2.5 billion…

Peer review is:

1. Fun
2. A way to learn methods
3. A sneak peak at the future
4. A chance to shape the field
5. Community service
6. A way to become known for your expertise

My feed - for some reason - has endless complaints about peer review, requests for payment, etc

Really digging these locally inspired “I voted” stickers.

What’s on the Boston one? A Dukin iced coffee?

The best notes I’ve ever encountered were written by the a senior ID physician who has been practicing for over 50 years. Not a single word was auto-filled from the EHR. Not a single word was AI. Not even a template. Just a blank page documenting his thoughts and recommendations.

Has anyone else noted that clinical notes have degraded since the broad adoption of AI usage for note writing?

Omg rank lists are due already?! Time flies!

I will say this, rank programs that align with your career goals. There are so many incredible programs out there, but they all offer different strengths. Rank in the order that they can advance you in the direction you want to go.

🤩Wishing every #HemOnc applicant the best as you finalize your rank lists! I hope you land where you are meant to be!

As a current fellow, I can say firsthand that Cleveland Clinic has an incredible fellowship program + is an amazing place to train!
