Better USMLE score, better patient outcomes. Yet Schools of Pharmacy can't get individual NAPLEX scores. Just imagine what we can demonstrate (or may not) if we had them!

When tackling a tough problem, we often rely on past experiences. Does easily remembering solutions lead us to overestimate our abilities? In my latest paper, retrieval fluency made people feel prepared for crises like shark attacks and plane crashes. 1/7

"An introvert, his first lecture terrified him. 'I never sweated more in my life—but it wasn’t terrible.'
Over time, teaching became a passion. 'I got to know the students…I got to talk about stuff I really loved talking about."

The importance of prior knowledge.
In 1731 King Frederick I of Sweden was gifted a lion, one of the first lions in Scandinavia. When the lion died shortly after, it was given to a taxidermist and this was the end product. The taxidermist and the museum keepers had never actually seen a lion before, and did not know how they were supposed to look. As a result, the resulting mount was especially anatomically inaccurate, most apparent in its face.
