Our department celebrated the end of the academic year with two intense days of back-to-back research presentations by residents and fellows, fortunately concluding with a celebratory dinner at the Marriott and a blast of an after-party. The resident skit was a polished production that impressed even seasoned video-skit producers like myself, featuring internet memes like Gangnam style and the Harlem Shake, combined with a witty script, sharp editing, green screen masking, and near-professional voice-overs. After the awesome show and the requisite roasts for the graduates, we headed to the Republic where our house DJs Master P and Special K laid down some funky beats as we danced the night away. Meanwhile, Duke’s decision to have the entire hospital system adopt a new EMR in one fell swoop was an Epic fail (pun intended). Despite the $400 million price tag and an army of blue-clad tech support minions, we still ended our first week seeing only half the patients in twice the time. At home, my recent tech upgrades have not fared better, with my new refurbished mouse and keyboard arriving DOA. Fortunately, my new D5100 more than met my expectations, replacing the D40 I had sold last year. Now I just need a vacation so I’ve got something to shoot!
