SUMMARY:Virtual Medicine Grand Rounds - Lisa Sanders\, MD\, FACP\, Yale School of Medicine\, "Zebras and Horses: Dimensions of Diagnostic Error."
DESCRIPTION:Lisa Sanders\, MD\, FACP\nDr. Lisa Sanders is a clinician educator in the Primary Care Internal Medicine Residency Program. In addition to her work as a physician and teacher\, she writes the popular Diagnosis column for the New York Times Magazine and the Think Like a Doctor column featured in the New York Times blog\, The Well. Her column was the inspiration for the Fox program House MD (2004-2012) and she served as a consultant to the show. In 2010\, she published a book titled Every Patient Tells a Story: Medical Mysteries and the Art of Diagnosis. Last year she collaborated with the New York Times on an eight-hour documentary series on the process of diagnosis for Netflix. Her most recent book is a collection of her columns and is titled\, Diagnosis: Solving the Most Baffling Medical Mysteries. \nSanders’ path to medicine was anything but traditional. As an undergraduate at the College of William and Mary\, she majored in English\, wrote for The Flat Hat\, the college paper\, and served pints of ale at Chownings Tavern in Colonial Williamsburg. After graduation she took a job with ABC at Good Morning America. Less than 10 years later\, while working for CBS News\, she won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Coverage of a Breaking News Story for coverage of Hurricane Hugo as it slammed into her hometown of Charleston\, S.C. But by then\, Sanders said\, she was ready to move on professionally and decided that of all the subjects she covered as a journalist\, medicine intrigued her most. After two years at Columbia University’s Post-Baccalaureate Premedical Program\, Sanders was accepted to the Yale School of Medicine “as part of the 10 percent of the class they reserve for weirdos\,” she said. In addition to her time in the hospital\, Sanders is currently researching clinical decision making and the way diagnostic decisions and errors are made. She has also published two books on weight loss and food choice — The Perfect Fit Diet: Combine What Science Knows About Weight Loss With What You Know About Yourself in 2004 and The Perfect Fit Diet: How to Lose Weight\, Keep it Off and Still Eat the Foods You Love in 2005.

DESCRIPTION:Ethan Basch\, MD\, MSc \nDr. Ethan Basch is Physician-in-Chief of the North Carolina Cancer Hospital and Chief of Oncology at the University North Carolina\, where he is the Richard M. Goldberg Distinguished Professor in Medical Oncology and Professor of Health Policy & Management. He has devoted his career to bringing the patient voice into cancer care delivery and drug development processes. His research group established that up to half of patients’ symptomatic adverse events go undetected in clinical trials\, and that patient-reported outcome questionnaires substantially improve detection. His team determined that integrating web-based patient-reported symptoms into oncology clinical practice improves clinical outcomes\, including survival\, and reduces health service utilization. His group created a system for the National Cancer Institute to collect patient-reported AEs during cancer trials called the ‘PRO-CTCAE.’ Dr. Basch is involved in efforts to bring PROs into comparative effectiveness research\, routine care\, and quality improvement. He is a member of the Board of Directors of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO)\, an Associate Editor at JAMA\, and a prior member of the Board of Scientific Advisors for the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and the Methodology Committee of the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI).

SUMMARY:Trans Talk Tuesday (LGBTQ Center)
DESCRIPTION:Trans Talk Tuesday\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nZoom – Contact Facilitator for Link\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn LGBTIQ spaces do you feel like the T is left out?\nWould you like to connect with folks around topics of gender identity and gender expression?\nAre you questioning your gender identity and hoping to talk to other questioning folks?\nWould you like to share your knowledge and expertise in regards to navigating systems that don’t often recognize diversity within gender?\n\nJoin the LGBTQ Center’s peer support/discussion group for campus and community members that identify as transgender\, genderqueer\, or gender-questioning. This space is meant to provide community and connection amongst folks on the basis of gender identity. All students\, staff\, faculty\, community members with these identities are welcome. \nNote to Allies\nWe have been asked if allies are welcome. As this space is not meant to be an educational space where people have to explain their identities\, we ask that people who do not identify as part of the transgender community (i.e.\, cisgender allies) not attend. Instead\, please consider taking advantage of our educational programs and/or resources for supportive families or friends. \nAccommodations for Social Distancing\nTrans Talk Tuesday will be moving online for now.
