Not Fitting In: A Conversation with Dr. Steven Merahn [CONVERSATIONS]

The Doctors On Social Media Podcast

Dr. Steven Merahn thinks there is an academic medicine secret handshake.
He also thinks peer review is a biased gate-keeper of ideas. It's all part of "respectability politics".
He says, "Who gets to tell their story? Who's allowed to tell their story?"
A relevant quote I shared during this episode is one by Maya Angelou:
"If you are always trying to be normal, you will never know how amazing you can be."
