Someone sent this out on the listserve on Friday. I thought it was cool and worth sharing.

As a resident physician working in a large academic medical centre, I am in frequent contact with medical students, many of whom feel apprehensive about choosing their future medical specialty. Students complain that they need balanced career guidance extending […]

This week’s  ECM (Essentials of Clinical Medicine) reading is about Balance and Self Care for Physicians, Residents and Medical Students. Usually, I dont take ECM seriously, as its more of a distraction and takes up time from learning our major coursework, but Alhamdulillah, I really benefitted from this assignment. I truly can relate to these […]

As most of you know, and is evident from my many posts, I came from a University (Stony Brook) with a rather large and active MSA. My time at the university, particularly with MSA-related activities and the brothers I met in large part through the MSA have greatly shaped who I am today, and has […]

Yesterday we had our second gross anatomy lab. To be honest it was very weird going into the lab with all these cadavers in front of us, and knowing that over the course of the next few months we would dissect it completely to analyze and study human anatomy, all the way down to almost […]

SITCA = Study-Induced Transient Cardiac Arrest: a new cardiac problem that Saleem Niazi coined: when a medical student starts a new class and after the first few “easy-introductory” lectures realizes the ridiculously large amount of information s/he has to memorize for the exam.

Today was the first time I returned to Stony Brook since graduation. I really miss that place! It was my home, and the source of so knowledge (dunya and deen-related), and just as importantly, where i made so many dear friends I hope to always remain close with. Although I went initially because i had […]

I just thought id share my recent encounter with a particular elevator in Melville Library this past thursday night. After dropping off my final exam for my Religion and Science class in the RLS office on the 4th floor of the library, I decided to take the elevator back down. After getting in, I pressed […]

Yesterday we released the Final Minaret of the semester. And even though i am relinquished my role of co-editor-in-chief last semester, I had the honor of doing the organization and layout work for this issue, my final issue. I enjoyed putting it together! However, putting together minaret issues arent easy. After sending out a […]

Last night was my last Stony Qiyam… Alhamdulillah good times. Also I completed my final two papers of my undergraduate career as well and submitted them yesterday. Good looks to my good friend for bein there to edit them for me in time for my classes (or at least in time to hand them in). […]
