When you realise your childhood aspirations to talk about wisdom and love become your actually career focus in Medicine. Global collaboration researching love as a foundational ethic. @NotreDame Ethics & the Common Good ethics.nd.edu/news-and-eve...

"Teach, not for awards or recognition...but for the love of teaching. Write, not for esteem, which may never come, but to share knowledge because it is good. Give, not to get a return, but to share. Love, not for profit, but because it brightens the world" Jeremy D Engels @chris6572.bsky.social

I recommend this paper to GENERALISTS. It is about PRACTICAL WISDOM, which is not often written about coherently. Whether technē (doing) or phronesis (being) is more important in medicine depends on the goal: whether the goal is the treatment of disease or the healing of illness.

How awesome it is to watch 400 Medical Students graduate to become doctors (2 ceremonies needed). So proud of you! Congratulations 🎊 #classof2025

Prof Margaret Bearman from Australia outlines 3 contentious re AI in #meded and healthcare. Interesting to contemplate pros and cons of #digitaltwin Qu from audience..chatgpt as mansplaining 🤣 (acknowledging the important LLM bias) #ASME2025

Thank you @syjameel.bsky.social for a fabulous talk at the Peninsula GP trainer’s conference. SO much content, new concepts and ideas- from Phronesis to Berwick’s 3rd era to recognising, valuing and nurturing wisdom as a unique characteristic… this was powerful and inspiring

I've often thought this can be useful for self awareness and revealing genuine reflection (rather than curated reflection for the portfolio). Thanks John!

This publishing malarkey requires a lot of patience, but I'm so happy to see this finally published. It's a heavily abridged version on my PhD Literature review on #Phronesis in Medicine #practicalwisdom academic.oup.com/jmp/advance-...

What is #Professionalism ? It was a really engaging and exploratory conversation with George and Laura from student @bmj.com www.bmj.com/sharpscratch #sharpscratch #practicalwisdom #medicaltraining #radialholisticprofessionalism

Such a pleasure to host Professor Lauris Kaldjian from Iowa today. He is such an icon re #PracticalWisdom in Medicine. I cited him a lot when writing my thesis. We visited Karis Medical centre who embody values based practice.
