Love this guy. EVERYONE NEEDS TO BE RESPECTED. Anyone using dehumanizing language to describe someone based on the color of skin or religion needs to be disqualified. ALL RELIGION AND PEOPLE ARE EQUAL.

Syed A. Ahmad The benchmark for a carefully selected phase 1/2 population should not be the large multi center phase 3 survival data, but the commensurate carefully selected phase 1/2 of the control arm. For Gem/Abraxane the 6 month overall survival in phase 1/2 was not 67% but upwards of 85%

Note the very first corner stitch. The most important. Remember. “Anastomosis is like hockey. Winning and losing is determined by what happens in the corners.”

Syed A. Ahmad I have never heard that quote, but it holds true. The corners are where leaks occur. (Barring ischemia or tissue damage along the anastomotic line.) Thanks for sharing this. I will forever remember it! It's never too late for surgeons to keep improving.

#Leadership 🧵 As the years go by, my respect grows for those who do their job every day - without drama, on time, on budget. The best teams are filled with people who do their jobs consistently, accurately and correctly the first time. “Do Your Job” is most famously associated

Syed A. Ahmad Kausch (1909) or Whipple (1935)? The answer is... Codivilla (1898)! ...But he's rarely mentioned 🥲 jamanetwork.com/journals/jamas…
