All right, so my talk is probably a little bit, perhaps, out there for you, but Hamburg versus Springfield. And it'll be clear, hopefully, by the time we're done. But we're going to talk about CVs today and academic portfolios. And you probably didn't even know what an academic portfolio was maybe before today. The Baylor people, please listen. Howard left, I think. But certainly, depending on where you are, these things are incredibly important. And the CV certainly is impactful and has a lot of importance. I'm going to start with a little bit of a, maybe a little background. All right. So who are these guys? All right. Can you name all of them? I bet, even if you think you can, there's one that's there that maybe not realizing that's Sutcliffe, who was playing drum before Ringo Starr. Now, why am I talking about the Beatles? Well, they are one of my favorite bands. I always ask, if you've ever rounded with me, to know that I usually ask my trainees if you can recognize who these guys are. But the reason is that in the early 60s, the Beatles went to Hamburg, Germany. And they played three, sometimes four, shows a night until 2 or 3 in the morning. And when they left Liverpool in the early 60s, they were not the band that we know today. And they spent basically four nights for a year and a half playing every night, getting that sound together, so that when they came back to England and came to America, they were the Beatles. And I don't know, hopefully, raise your hand if you've read Outliers from Malcolm Gladwell. OK, I see a few. I go back, if you're going to pick a book to read, this is the book for your next cycle. So in this book, I'm not spoiling anything, but Malcolm Gladwell talks about the 10,000 hours. And so to become an expert in something, you heard Doug Adler yesterday say he had done 40,000 endoscopies. That's at least 10,000 hours, if not more. Maybe not in your hands. Maybe it's shorter than that. I don't know. But so certainly, the Beatles got that 10,000 hours. So that expertise did not happen overnight. So the Outliers, the whole point of the book is that each of these stories is about somebody that kind of sounded like they were just great from the get-go. But it actually took time to nurture and foster that story. Bill Gates, if you know the story about Bill Gates, his mom actually ran the PTO at his junior high. And they bought the first computer in Northern California. So he was programming in seventh and eighth grade. So by the time he got to college, he had already programmed hours and hours and hours before anybody had a shot at becoming Microsoft. An interesting story, Joe Flom was a mergers and acquisition lawyer, became a multimillionaire because nobody, he was a Jewish guy in the 40s, and nobody knew how to do mergers and acquisitions when companies were merging. It wasn't a thing. And he was the first person. So in the 60s and 70s and 80s, when that was everything, it was his firm. Concert violinists, the same, right? So you start when you're four, you're going to be much more likely to go to Juilliard and be a concert violinist than anyone else starting if I were to start today. So what are those 10,000 hours in GI? Well, think about the pillars, right? Excellence in education, research, clinical care. And we now add into that quality, advocacy. So all these things that you can spend your time in GI. You have your clinical hours, your grant writing, your reviews, your techniques in the lab perhaps, and obviously why we're here, endoscopy, right? How do you get those 10,000 hours in a given procedure or in a given technique? So what is the CV? It's a comprehensive resume. It really tells the story of your life, but really in a professional outline form, right? You don't want too much of your personal story in there, but certainly at the end, there's always an opportunity to share a little bit. A classic resume is usually two standard pages. We were talking about this earlier. Every other job in the world is two pages and you're done. And for us, it's everything else that you've done and you accumulate that over time. Many of us only have the stomach to look at the first couple of pages and it often tells a lot. And again, first impressions are lasting as they say, but certainly those two pages within the CV, you may have a 30-page CV and that's not unusual. And I won't share you the whole story, but when I was in college as a freshman, I went to look for a research job and I had my one-page job showing that I had delivered pizza, worked at a toy store, and the senior researcher showed me a six or seven-page resume of a junior who was at an Ivy League school and said, this is the people we're hiring. I was like, OK. So you never know what you're going to have. But again, most of these cartoons I won't read for you. You'll have to read them on your own, but I think they share some of the humor. So why do you need a CV? OK, well, you need a job, right? For all of you, we talked about if you're still looking for jobs, you have to have a CV. And when do you need it? You need to start yesterday. And hopefully you've started accumulating this. But why also do you need it? You need to give to your mentors if you're going to ask them to write a letter for you. You need it to get promoted. Ashley's going to talk about that for us later, but you certainly need a CV for that. And then also, if you're applying for grant, it could be a small grant. It could be a NIH grant. We'll talk about biosketches, again, which is a form of a CV. And I think that's important, too. I was asked to give a talk similar to this several years ago to the pediatric group. And a surgeon that I work with gave me the recommendation of collecting all my stuff professionally in a shoebox. And I gave the talk, and they said, well, how about a virtual shoebox? I kind of like that idea. So all the stuff that you get, if someone sends you a letter of thanks, et cetera, if you've given a talk, you get your badge from a meeting, throw it in a box, right? Take a picture of it now, right? Put it in it. Save it on your phone. But you should keep everything. You can print them out, save them, something, a format that you're comfortable with. Because you will forget these things that you participated in, all right? If you gave a seminar, you may have forgotten you gave a medical school lecture. Those things should be on your, you should get credit for those things. So again, if the meeting bulletin came out, again, save that, put it in your bag of tricks. Many times, you don't get direct feedback from the people that you're giving these talks to or participating on rounds. And so especially at Baylor, for some of the things that we're involved in, we'll actually hand surveys to the nurses that are in clinic, and they can fill that out for you. And sometimes, as you know, there are surveys that the patients receive, and you can get that data. Like I said, you can create your own evaluation form, and I've done that. So why do you need to start now? Well, you're busy, okay? You're working hard. You will be busy practitioners and researchers. So you've got to start at some point, and I think now is the time to do that. And on a bad day, this was not Jen, but someone said, don't worry about today, but you've got a 30-year career. So this is a longitudinal process. So again, don't worry if you only have a two-page CV today. It will be that 25-page CV at some point. So how do you start? So kind of like in the military, name, rank, serial number, right? So you've got to get your name on the page. That's the first start. There's certainly institutional guidelines and formats which you can follow. You can certainly use your own institution. If you have a dream job and it's that, you can put it in that format. Again, I'm certainly used to looking at lots of different formats. But again, if you're like, hey, I want to be at this program, put it on that format, and they're much more used to looking at it. But you can choose any format. You can ask permission from a colleague to kind of map theirs out. Certainly you can look at Google, and again, if you search it, how many 55 million hits. So writing your CV. And again, just the facts. There's an old show, Dragnet, and there's always some little old lady yapping about the criminal or the old guy that they were talking about. And so anyway, just the facts. But get a template to use. Use a standard font, Arial, Times Roman. Don't get too fancy. But you should keep updating it. You can do it monthly. I even try to do that. If I'm sitting watching TV, I just kind of, and I see something is PubMed-ed, I'll try to put in that reference. If you wait and do it once a year, you start getting way behind. And don't forget the shoebox, right? You're going to have things that come up and make sure they go in the shoebox, you start collecting them. And again, just the facts. So this is the current, at least from the website this week, the Harvard CV format. Again, it hasn't changed much because I had taken out a slide from five years ago and it's pretty similar. But you can see the categories, your education, postdoctoral training, faculty appointments, et cetera. And that also is on the local, regional, national, international level. And again, you're not expected to have international things at this point, right? But you may have done something local. It could have been a talk to a local high school. Those things should go on your CV. Limit your personal life. Again, especially today, there's a lot of politics. But again, sometimes that comes out. And that's okay. I think that's okay. But at the same time, you don't want it to overwhelm the CV. But it should have a focus or a theme. And I, again, sitting in your position, remember I had done a little bit in liver, a little bit in DOSB, and it didn't have a good story. And I think if you're interested in IBD, have an IBD focus to your CV. And you can kind of outline that. So it doesn't have to be stacked with everything IBD and then something at the end. But it should tell a story, right? So even if you're interested in IBD, but you've done something in PSC, obviously you can kind of make that, put those points in there. And I think that's helpful. So that, like I said, it should tell a story. Keep it simple. Right, just keep it simple. And that's certainly, you don't want to have too much about one given thing. And revise, revise, revise. I think that's certainly important. I do. I look at mine. I find mistakes. I make changes. Certainly when I'm writing papers, one of my pet peeves is when I go look up an article and the reference is wrong. So when I see one of my own, I'm like, oh, so who did I send that to? So I think that's really important to think about. And then be prepared to talk about anything on your CV. I remember when I was interviewing for residency, I had done a one-hour volunteer thing at a bowling alley for autism. And the cardiologist at the hospital I ended up matching at asked me about that activity. And it was really some of the limited volunteering I had done, so that's why it was on there. And you have to be prepared to talk about something like that. And I was caught off guard. Okay, so this is mainly for business. But a study, and I got this from ladders.com, 6.25 seconds in business is the average time that people are looking at your CV, right? They're flipping through 100. Now, I did search AI for medical CVs, and I really didn't find much, but certainly that will be here too. And I'm sure in chat, GBT or something else, you could probably make a CV. But I don't think it still tells a story, and it also wouldn't be formatted probably to your institution, at least today. So what are they going to look at? Your name, your current title or hospital that you work at, your previous titles, and what is your position and your start and end dates, as well as your education. Again, we're all looking at that. Where did you train, right? Where did you do your residency, fellowship, and medical school? Medical school almost becomes a nothing at some point, and it's kind of where did you do your last training? So where did you do your GI fellowship? Where did you do your advanced training? So this is the NIH biosketch. Again, if you're applying for grants, you certainly will need this. You can go to eCommons. Again, mine just has my name here. But certainly, I use this a lot. I'm involved in some NIH-related work, but I'm not a primary PI for anything. But I frequently get asked to collaborate, and I need a biosketch. And so you certainly can use that in addition, but generally, it's not a standalone. But what are the major components of your CV? Your general information, again, where you are, where you're working, what research you've done, your education, your clinical responsibilities. Hey, I round on the inpatient service 40 hours a week, or I have 10 clinics, or I have six clinics a week, four endoscopy sessions. It depends on the institution and what they're asking for. But you want to get a general reflection of what you're doing, and also your service, your service to the community, et cetera. You serve on the IBD committee. You serve on an ASGE committee. There's local, national, and international, as we said. You have your clinical responsibilities. Are you reviewing grant or manuscripts? Certainly, as faculty, we sometimes ask our trainees to review. You should include that, and you should get credit for that time. You may be giving invited lectures. Those should certainly be on your CV, as well as other lectures. Again, in the COVID era, you're giving Zoom. Those count. You just have to account for how you gave them and where you gave them. I included this. This is a research description. If you're in the lab, be very specific about, number one, who your mentor is, what department they're in, what your role is, and then, again, what are your specific jobs with a little bit of background. Certainly, if I'm interested in, even as a GI fellow, and we're interviewing those individuals, I want to know, did they put together their own IRB, or did they take a project and continue it? That's helpful. Again, three or four bullets is usually sufficient to address that. Again, you may be on four or five different projects. This is an example of the Baylor CV, really not that different than the Harvard one. In a bibliography, all of your articles and your manuscripts are broken down. It could be papers, chapters, published and accepted research articles, manuscripts submitted usually goes at the end, review articles, symposium contributions, book chapters and reviews. Some people, if you're a blogger, again, that won't be your primary thing that you're obviously going to be doing in medicine necessarily, but certainly, you want to get credit for those things. I have seen people, if you have 10 million followers, I don't know how many followers Doug has on Twitter, but certainly, if you've got enough followers, that can be tracked. Book reviews, we talked about, manuals and handbooks, again, Washington Manual, for example, if you put together a video, whether it's video GIE or a video that's on a website, if it's on YouTube, you can link that and put that should go on your CV so someone can look at it. But also remember that someone can look at it, right? So you want to be something, hopefully, that represents the things that you're interested in and the things that you want people to see. Published abstracts, certainly, usually, it's three years worth of abstracts, but again, I think from a trainee, I certainly want to, I think it'd be reasonable to go deeper in any other type of publications, as I mentioned, social media, blogs, et cetera. Check out my bibliography, or SciENcv, it's on the NIH website, and it'll actually help you make your own site, and I have another slide on that. So preparation and maintenance, most likely doing this yourself. We have admin that can theoretically do it, but I have never asked my admin to do a CV, but I certainly have seen in departments where they do it. You could hire someone to do it. And again, if you go to this, you can start at least your biosketch. I think it's pretty limited on mine, but I have a few things from when I started it the first time, but it'll help you enter that, and again, this puts it in NIH format. So certainly, that's an important thing. But I encourage you to go to do that, because you will be asked for an NIH biosketch at some point. Okay, perception is reality. No typos. Again, that drives me nuts, even if I have some. Usually, you might find one or two, and you can just go back and change it. Don't get too fancy, okay? Again, you never know who's going to be reading it, or who's screening these things, so you don't want to get too fancy. Edit, edit, edit. As I said, if I've not got much going on, and the TV's on, I might mess with my CV. Get someone else to review. It could be a colleague, a contemporary, or even your mentor, but tell the truth. And I'm going to get to that in a moment, but certainly, you don't want to find things that aren't true. I don't know how many of you have watched Suits, but Mike, the lawyer on the left, lied about going to Harvard, and the whole show is based on that he didn't go to Harvard. George O'Leary was fired from Notre Dame several years ago. He had lied about getting a master's in some administrative role, and he ended up having to quit. So, head football coach at Notre Dame is a big deal. Interestingly, he's pulling some data from OBGYN, 243 applications, 4 out of 35 said they were AOA when they were not. 30% had unverifiable articles, so you should PubMed yourself, vanity search, make sure you can actually find these things. 71% had submitted or in progress or had at least one unverifiable manuscript. So again, we're looking at that. That's very, especially for fellowships and for jobs, what's your publication, what's your track record so far, we're going to at least put your name in and see what comes up. So make sure that I can find it. And then another study of 900 applications, 15% had reported that they published articles that couldn't be found, 62 reported studies that were peer-reviewed that were not. So more CV escapades from University of Washington, 404 pediatric trainees, 20% had at least one unverifiable publication, 31 fellowship applications, 14 claim publications, each had one unverifiable out of 77. So some CV resources, the UNC Writing Center, Purdue, Harvard website, I think have really good resources on how to put your CV together. And again, I think we're going to, we have some time to look at CVs if people have them. And certainly I can speak for myself, but I think the faculty would be happy to look at CVs from this group and take a look at them. It helps to have a little bit of an idea of what you're planning to do, but certainly happy to meet with anybody and talk about that. I want to say a little bit about academic portfolios. In our institution, they're very important. They are part of your promotion packet, and so it depends on your institution how much emphasis is put on them. But what is an academic portfolio? So in artist lingo, it's, you may have seen my work, right? So it's like, it kind of is thinking about, and the way I think about it, it's the educational component of your CV on rocket fuel, right? CV is really just the facts, but the academic portfolio really tells the story, and it contains the critical components all in one place. And it really tells a story that your CV may not, so, and it's really, you can say you did something, but when I'm reading an academic portfolio, I get a sense for what you actually thought about your experience and what the impact may have been on your colleagues or your patients. So why do you need it? Well, you want to get credit for your hard work. You want to get promoted. Ashley has been kind enough to speak on that later today. Research, clinical education, you want to be excellent in these areas. Again, I mentioned advocacy and quality, and there's other areas that are growing too, to be important. And when do you start? Start now. How do you get one? You start collecting that shoebox of things, and all those things will go into that shoebox. What goes in it? Again, anything that is related to your professional work should be part of your academic portfolio, so you get credit. If you interact with nursing students, if you interact with medical students, if you interact with high school, all those things are part of your academic portfolio and expanding the growth of your field. So you should save all the evidence of quality. That could be a letter. It could be emails. It could be learner evaluations. At our institution, we use MedHub, so you can actually track all of the students that have seen you. Usually, there's a limit. If you have less than five, then you have to wait until you have at least five evaluations. You should list your activities in organized format. Again, we have one at our institution. Every place is a little bit different, but when you go to the promotion packet, the first thing you should look at is that academic portfolio, and use that as you grow, so you're putting things automatically into there, so you don't have to go searching for that when your chief tells you you're ready for promotion. Get help. If you've never done one before, it's helpful to get help from someone who has done it. So how do you make your portfolio stand out? You demonstrate your teaching abilities over time. These are longitudinal things. You want to show both quantity. Our institution thinks about it in terms of number of things you've done, as well as number of hours, as well as the quality, and how do you demonstrate the quality. The different types of learning, right? Is it just medical teaching on rounds? Is it teaching in endoscopy, hands-on, sim? These are all unique types of learning environments, and now thinking about elaborating on the diversity of types of learners. Again, you have residents, dieticians. We interact with a whole host of people that you affect on a daily basis, and it's important to display your breadth of teaching in multiple areas. Again, you may be an expert in liver disease. You may be an expert in IBD. Again, demonstrate that you, or even in the physiology area, if you're speaking to the medical students, for example. You should write a personal statement for this. Again, I won't go into that today. Generally, you get letters of support sometimes for the academic portfolio. These may be similar to your promotion letters, and Ashley's going to talk about it later, but really be strategic and talk to your mentors. Oftentimes for promotion letters, even, your chief is automatically doing that without asking you, but in my experience, you're usually asked about who should be your letter writers. If you're getting letters for your academic portfolio, Howard, this is for you, be very strategic about who writes your academic portfolio letters because then you don't want to then go back to ask them for your promotion letter. Peer evaluations, you can actually, most institutions have an opportunity where you can have a peer evaluator, another physician who follows you around and listens to a given talk and gives you feedback on that talk. I usually ask my own colleagues, hey, this is a talk I've been working on, what do you think, and you can get some feedback, but there's formal ways of getting that. There's certainly faculty and education development in institutions, and you should, professionalism is an important activity that is looked at both in the academic portfolio as well as for your promotion. There are different categories, we have one for mentoring, one for educational leadership, being a course director, for example, educational materials, things that are distributed outside of your institution, CME materials, chapters, even a pamphlet, and then educational research was a little bit less common. Getting at what's an academic portfolio, and again, we talked about Hamburg versus Springfield, so here's Springfield, right, Bart Simpson, and how many of those chalkboards have you seen over the years? What's the difference between a CV and an academic portfolio? On the left, I think you would probably write, the Simpsons have been around since 1989 to the present, longest-running cartoon, over 700 episodes, number 48 on TV Guide's list of all-time top 50, top 100 Time Magazine. The academic portfolio side, you would still have these things, but 30 minutes every Sunday since 1989, that's over 350 hours, that's a measure of time, 350 chalkboard appearances, that's quantity, hundreds of lessons in political satire, that's quantity and diversity, as well as translated into 10 languages, right? So it's a little bit different way of thinking about the same thing, but expanding on that idea. So inpatient teaching, you can describe, hey, I attend for six to eight weeks on inpatient hematology, and on the right-hand side is the evidence of the quality, the effectiveness, again, is scored on your evaluations, and then you also maybe get a letter of support from either a learner or a faculty member. Outpatient teaching, family education, subspecialty lectures, right? We often get asked to talk to endocrine on celiac disease or something like that. So I think that's important. You should save those letters, and again, the act of getting invited again is another demonstration of your quality. Fellow board review, certainly you'll get involved in that, and certainly CME. I'll skip that. Don't forget the prep time. So I just gave this as an example. So perhaps one of the junior faculty speaking this week, you know, you prepared a new talk for society fellows conference. You prepared six to eight hours for that talk. You met with program fellows and several junior faculty to discuss career planning, one to two hours. You gave a 30-minute clinical lecture, two hours prep time, and you got a letter from an attendee or an email, and that all goes into, for at least at Baylor, you would put that into your portfolio for one of your activities. CVs and academic portfolios are both ways to highlight your strengths. You need to start now and continuously update. Keep that shoebox. Ask for help. Get credit for the time that you put in, and again, get promoted, make more money, and good luck. So. I'll take any questions. Yes? Where are you actually, like, keeping this? Is this, like, a Word document on your computer? Are you in the cloud? Or is there, like, a service that you use? Or, like, I feel like sometimes you end up, like, putting it in, like, five different places. You're like, which version were you using? Yeah. It certainly depends on your organization. I use Word. I use it as a Word document. You certainly could do it in Google Docs, but I use it. I have a CV in Word document, and then the portfolios, I do when I need them, but I kind of modify the one I already had, so it's, but starting with a template. So usually your institution will have a template for that. Again, I think many, so at our institution, again, I know we're being recorded, but off the record, we have these academic awards that you have that helps to get promoted if you have one of them, and you have to, it basically is your academic, serves as your academic portfolio. So Howard and the Baylor fellows back there, you can start putting those into these formatted blocks, and that helps. From a CV standpoint, yeah, most of the Harvard one I pulled is a, what you can do is a Word or is a PDF. I suspect UNC has the same. Take that format and start using it, and again, I think that is, and like I said, use it as a running document, and so again, that may be helpful in something like Google Docs. I certainly use Word in the back. Is there a role for putting the mentees you've had in your CV, or is that just for the portfolio? Yeah, so that certainly exists in most, many of the CV formats from a lot of the academic institutions. So both who your mentor was, but also who your mentees are, and that's both by trainee level. You can have faculty, you usually put their current institution, what their role was with you, and again, where they currently are. So absolutely, and that's true for med students. Again, when I went back for promotion, they're like, wait a minute, I had med students. But if you don't start, you may not remember, they may be long gone, you get old and gray, and you forget those perhaps that you maybe even had an important impact on. Another question? For all these CMEs that we accumulate from all these lectures, conferences, workshops, is there any one particular website or something where we could upload or store all these CMEs so that we can keep a track of them? Yeah, so it doesn't necessarily go on your CV if you've, say, attended a class and gotten some CME for it. It may depend on numerous factors, but usually that's, unless they're related to professionalism or you're gaining a new skill. For example, the ASG recommends eight hours of CME for capsule endoscopy. That may be something you want to include, again, if you're a capsule endoscopy person or something to that effect. But there are websites, I know one is called CME Tracker, so some of the state boards require you submit your CME to them. And so I've used that for one of the states that I have a license in. And I put it all in there, and then I use it for the other places and it allows me to track. Ashley? Just a comment about when you said about getting someone to keep your CV up to date. Someone told me this, and I thought it was really clever. So you have your CV, and if you have a secretary who just, every time you give a talk, you can, they're already blocking your calendar, right? They're like, I'm going away to ASG for this. They could conceivably put it on your CV. Even if it's not in the exact format you want, it will just be on there. So I mean, I don't do it because I don't have a secretary that could possibly do that. Nor do I, yeah, but it's great. But it's something clever to do, even like M&Ms that you do, those are the things you really forget. Yeah, yeah, absolutely. DDW, I don't know. Yeah, and again, it's on your flight coming back, you're like in your laptop and just pull it up, right? Before you go watch a movie, fix your CV. Put your talk in that you gave, and again, you can fill in all the details later. You know, I think that's certainly something. And you know, for example, if you submit to DDW, it is an abstract, it has a published reference in gastrointestinal endoscopy, for example, AGA is the same. So those are certainly things, like I said, you're coming back from a meeting, the abstracts are the thing that I track the least well and forget about, or I have a poster with some one of my trainees, and that I only when I'm at the end of the year when we do our annual review, that's the other thing I forgot to mention. So typically, you may meet with your section head or department clinical chief one to two times per year, and they actually will want to review your CV. And that's an opportunity to do those things as well. And again, abstracts are included in that. So we have, the institution has an annual review, it's called the 3M process of, I forgot what the M stands for now, but anyway, I have to go back and pull up my abstracts if I haven't already done so. But I would check out SciENcv, it will actually automate your NIH biosketch, and that's what I use for, like I said, when I'm getting asked to participate in others' work. Great, thank you. I recently, so in my role, and we're hiring, by the way, at Mayo Clinic for advanced endoscopy and a lot of other roles as well, but in my role, I've started seeing, and I'm really supportive of this, I am married to someone who's in marketing, and she has always felt that our CVs are ridiculous, right? I mean, you have that 16-page academic CV, and it's impossible to wade through. And a colleague who's applying to private practice jobs now, from being in academics for a long time, turned me on to Etsy. And you can actually have someone there who will design a template for you, and they send you that Word document, and it'll put in, so it'll link to my NIH biosketch. This is how we can achieve that really nice one- to two-page CV to send out to potential employers for that first glance. And it'll actually, it makes it very pretty. You don't want it to look like Legally Blonde, where it's like pink and perfumed and kind of ridiculous, but they make very professional-looking CVs that might have a couple of QR codes. And I actually really, I think it looks professional, and it's really nice. It'll QR code to your PubMed page or your hospital website or whatever that lists all your stuff. So that was another trick that I think I'm going to do, is to build a short-format CV to send out to a potential employer, that sort of thing. And again, Etsy or anyone who is selling their services through basically Adobe can do that for you. And you can also, in medicine, we kind of do this ourselves in business, nobody does their own CV or resume, they just hire people. They will hire professional resume writers, that's all they do, that's their full-time job. They'll interview the person, and they'll put together a CV and a resume for them. So you can do that too, you can hire a professional. My wife always says, if you have a toothache, go to the dentist. Well I would just add the other thing about activities and things, at the very end you get to list all of your interests. Don't go wild. Remember, if it's there, somebody is going to want to talk about it. If a dime a dozen candidate, somebody is like, I play professional jazz guitar, I'm like, oh, tell me about that. So be ready to talk about it. If you're fluent in a language, if you put that on there, be ready to speak in that language. So anyway, this develops over time. I like the idea of having a two-pager, certainly. The other thing I was going to say is I, although I'm not good at tracking and where do you store these things. So I have a CV file that's probably got nine different iterations. But it probably is important, because things like abstracts, they only want to have, and this is thinking longer, but you only want to have three to five years of abstracts. Well what happened to that abstract I did 20 years ago? So it would be nice to have, if you're really organized, to have a master one. But I think that's asking, I mean I think most people are lucky to have to pull one CV together, much less try to collate a lifetime greatest hits. So anyway, but just to keep that in mind. But certainly there are things like that that do come up from time to time. But again, and again, if it's there, be ready to talk about it. And I can tell you, we've interviewed faculty now upcoming for liver transplant. We've interviewed for other things, for faculty spots. And be able to talk about your research, right? I mean I think if you've done all this work, be ready to talk about it. All right, next. So Linda and David and Doug have been offered to do it, so we appreciate. But Linda is going to give us a video talk on basic financial literacy for the GI fellow, and she has videoed this for us. So hopefully, I think this will be an important, again, these are the intangibles of your professional and outside life. So I'm going to give you a little bit of background on how you're going to do it.
