I used to think I was rational. Then I read Daniel Kahneman's Nobel Prize-winning work on human decision-making. He routinely asks 8 questions to expose cognitive traps you fall into daily. Test yourself with these questions (it's the ultimate BS detector for your brain):

Providers find it difficult not to treat once they have a positive U/A or UCx, independent of whether it was appropriate to test and when they know the evidence doesn’t show a benefit in treating asymptomatic bacteriuria. Goal needs to be reducing testing. academic.oup.com/ofid/advance-a…

Yes indeed, the 2nd rule of Internal Medicine: 1) If what you're doing is working, keep doing it. 2) If what you're doing isn't working, do something else: a) Change one thing at a time. b) Unless the patient is crashing, in which case you change everything all at once.

So so so proud of Lauren Pischel, MD MSc! I’ve had the good fortune to see her brilliance and compassion as a physician. So excited to see her also become an independent scientist. Thanks for investing in a true star @NIAIDFunding!!

Excited to check off an item off my professional bucket list by visiting the World Health Organization (WHO). Even more excited that we are considering the impact of climate change on TB. Brilliant leadership by Finn McQuaid in developing a research framework that will help us understand & adapt.
