Surely we can do better than a massive majority male faculty at a conference primarily aimed at changing the way women look? I’m surprised this got past #TheRoyalSocietyOfMedicine - not to mention the endorsers of this course… @WomenSurgeonsUK @SurgeryWomen @BAPRASvoice

It’s freezing, the week before payday and Oxford is packed. Broad Street, the Covered Market, cafes on and around Broad. Blackwells is bustling. Tourists with their selfie sticks and tripods are back. Bike racks rammed. Rumours of Oxford’s demise are exaggerated.

Based on some recent conversations, I felt like a thread was needed on some of the issues surrounding medical training, and how they intersect with the long term workforce plan. Buckle in for a long one 1/14 🧵
