We were saddened to hear of the passing of Prof John Harbison, Ireland's first State forensic pathologist with over 30 years of service. Prof Harbison graduated from @tcddublin in medicine in 1960 and lectured in medical jurisprudence for many years with us. #RIP

We have an awesome library of colorized anatomy! Great for lectures and demos, especially when in-person teaching is not an option! Check out these echo images and more at bit.ly/2OBI5iQ. #FOAMed #FOAMus #POCUS #MedEd #ultrasound #MedTwitter

There are only 43 COVID patients in ICU today in the whole of Australia. You don’t have to call us heroes because we haven’t seen a real tsunami. Call our Public Health Officials and Medical Leaders heroes. They have saved us from an unprecedented disaster. So far.

In Australia our ED has a curious mix of anticipatory anxiety & some form of survivor guilt as our friends overseas battle #COVID19 All we can do is prepare like f**k. Sim until we're nauseated and then sim some more. On version 10 of our RSI command sequence & checklist.

A free iBook on ultrasound-guided procedures (with minimal text and only pictures). Meant to used at the bedside (on your phone) as a supplement to the amazing online resources (videos, etc.) that are everywhere. itunes.apple.com/us/book/ult…
