    Hi Adam this is such a useful vid thanks, one question about work experience tho: if i am writing about specific cases i witnessed during shadowing how do i ensure that i don't breach patient confidentiality? like would including age or sex of the patient be a problem or should i go more general?

      @Guidenotguru 4 місяці тому

      @@alliiicccceeeee you can be specific with 1. the disease 2. the treatment of the disease but do not disclose the 1. name 2. age! e.g. ❌ “i observed a 59-year-old patient called Alice who has hypertension, and she worried about her condition” ✅ “during my shadowing, i observed a patient with sleep apnea. while the patient was worried of having hypertension, the cardiologist comforted her and proposed ACE inhibitors as a treatment. This allowed me to understand that compassion is important to build a robust doctor patient rapport, which is crucial to build trust in facilitating clinical outcomes.”

    I have to have my PS done by October. I have done significant academic research into stem cells and neurological disorders but I see that you have been more proactive, such as doing RNA sequence analysis yourself. I am actually writing a research project ATM. Do you have any advice for me? Anything actionable I can do in the next 30 days on the side that will be as influential to my application as that?

    • @Guidenotguru
      @Guidenotguru 4 місяці тому

      Hey, thanks for commenting! What do you mean by "academic research"? The personal statement places more focus on critical reflection and thoughts than having a research project intrinsically. Would you be looking forward to a video where I share how you could incorporate research experience into the PS?
