So glad to know that I’m just one of hundreds (thousands?) of people filled with love and respect for this wonderful man. Congrats on the BSL for #RAUK24 !

The future of RA training - an AI based course! Presented by @htyn_m - another young & talented TWH fellow (and no slouch on the dance floor either!) #ASRASPRING24

Proud to see the next generation of TWH fellows continuing a great tradition of research - @michyaries888 presenting not just one but two posters on ACB catheters & lung US at #ASRASPRING24 @PerlasAnahi (On top of her day job as Spotify music artist - echolily 🤩)

Congratulations to @YHoydonckx for the recognition of her stellar work in chronic pain at #ASRASPRING24! She’s not just an accomplished researcher, but also a compassionate & competent clinician, and just a wonderful person. I’m privileged to have her as a colleague & friend 😍

Some great surgeon-anesthesiologist collaboration in service of our patients happening on stage at #ASRASPRING24 @EMARIANOMD @jodyleng @sanjibadhikary
