​​The dawn of a new year brings new resolutions, new perspectives, and new hope. And what better way to kick off 2024 than with our latest episode – one that explores global surgical topics as well as life lessons. We are proud to present our guest, Dr Myron Rolle, a former American football (NFL) player turned neurosurgeon. In this episode, we will explore the finer nuances of positions of power within hierarchical structures, public health education models, neurosurgical access in the Caribbean, and racial disparities within medicine. Dr Rolle reminds us that each one of us possesses a unique and immeasurable value, and we must not allow anyone to diminish our worth. As we begin our journey into the new year, let us stand our ground, pursue our dreams, and remember that we are all capable of achieving greatness. Join us for our semi-centennial episode, as we celebrate 50 episodes of global surgeryl content! We hope this episode will help start your year the right way!
