It's still a poster frenzy at #SEW2025! Peer letters > boilerplate recs. Cait Silvestri shows they add context in the holistic review of surgery‑residency apps—fairer decisions, richer cohorts?

Can you stomach it? Connie Gan's multi‑institutional study debuts a GIST stomach model for residents to rehearse robotic partial gastrectomy—more reps, shorter learning curves, safer surgeries! #SEW2025

Same decision, different ending: when the outcome turns bad, residents slash decision‑making scores—even against a control with the same reasoning. Darian Hoagland, MD's study exposes outcome bias alive and well in surgical training. Time to fix our M&M lenses. #SEW2025

Two excellent presentations by Ariana Naaseh, MD, MPHS at APDS surgery describing her work exploring residents’ perceptions of their roles as teachers and a novel health equity curriculum. Way to represent General Surgery Residency at WashU Medicine! Fantastic meeting organized by Paul Wise! Can’t wait for day 2

How do we bridge EPA-based assessments with real-world rotations in surgery residency? Shannon Barter from Duke Surgery explores how mapping micro-assessments to traditional clinical experiences can transform surgical training! #SEW2025

Feedback language matters! FANTASTIC talk by Michael J. Furey, DO, MSMED from Geisinger sharing that growth mindset feedback statements empower trainees! 💪 #SEW2025 ❌ Fixed: “Great job in that case.” ✅ Growth: “Your skills have really progressed. Great job in that case!

In the operating room…are you a controlling or autonomy-supportive surgeon-educator? Angela Atkinson discussing how a “my way or the highway” approach may not be conducive to technical skill acquisition 😡 #SEW2025

Want to learn more about a better e-learning model for general surgery training? Check out Joshua Roshal, MD's incredible work pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40253954/, just presented at APDS surgery #SEW2025

One of the best qualitative presentations at APDS surgery yet from Angela Atkinson! Important work to see the discrete components of the autonomy controlling environment that our trainees work in every day. #SEW2025

So, ERAS gave you an ‘Impactful Experience’ box—are you using it? Only 33% of surgery applicants did. Jorge Zárate, MD found that those who used it were more likely to highlight URM identity and life obstacles, while others repeated the same themes in their PS. Missed opportunity?

Does anyone really know what these “signals” mean in the residency application process? Sarah Lund, MD Connie Gan and 38 collaborators from 28 institutions are trying to find out! But they need $$$ 😱 #SEW2025

🎶 Everyday we’re poster-ing…🎶 Longitudinal integrated clerkships (LIC) vs traditional clerkships—what do surgical trainees think? Colleen McDermott’s study showed a strong preference for traditional block clerkships. LIC seen as worse for skill development, teamwork, and prep
