Calls for Submission & Other Opportunities
Humans of Residency
In this difficult time of the COVID-19 pandemic, the editorial board at in-House seeks to bring together the community of residents and fellows worldwide through a visual narrative medicine project entitled Humans of Residency.
The Humans of Residency series, based on the popular Humans of New York, aims to catalog the everyday experiences of trainees and provide them with a peer-managed space for catharsis and community-building. The editors hope that this project will serve as a living archive of these stories told by residents and fellows worldwide.
You can follow the project on Instagram, Twitter, or the hashtag #humansofresidency on social media.
If you are interested in contributing a photograph of yourself and a short paragraph about your experience during the pandemic, please email editorinchief@in-housestaff.org.
#FrontLineFaces: Share Your Photos and Stories
As part of its mission to keep healthcare human, The Gold Foundation seeks to help strengthen connections during this crisis by encouraging clinicians and patients to share photos and stories of their experiences. Research has shown that a warm, strong human connection helps patients heal while also helping practitioners maintain their own well-being, and we need to mobilize every tool available in this historic fight.
Submit your photos and stories to the #FrontLineFaces project at info@gold-foundation.org or post your photo and story on social media with the hashtag #FrontLineFaces. On Twitter and Instagram, please tag @GoldFdtn.
