Drs. David Baxley Jr. and Charles Grossnickle have been named Residents of the Month for December!

Dr. David Baxley, a PGY-4 in Ophthalmology, was recognized for being a highly compassionate and patient-centered physician. Recently, he assisted a patient who required additional imaging prior to an ophthalmology procedure. Dr. Baxley personally accompanied the patient to and from another MUSC location to complete the necessary imaging, ensuring the procedure could move forward as planned.

Dr. Charles Grossnickle, a PGY-3 in Diagnostic Radiology, was recognized for his attentiveness and quick response when he noticed a student experiencing a seizure in the library. He and a few other patrons were able to safely lower the student to the ground and prevent any injury. He then quickly coordinated a team that safely transported the patient to the ED.

Congratulations to Drs. Baxley and Grossnickle, and thank you for your dedication. You are helping us change what's possible for those we serve!

The American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) has endorsed a proposed federal policy that would reduce ni****ne levels in combustible ci******es and related to***co products by about 95%, making them far less addictive. If put into action, this would be one of the most powerful public health steps ever taken!

The policy statement was co-led by MUSC’s Dr. Benjamin Toll, a national expert in to***co research, co-director of the Lung Cancer Screening Program at MUSC Hollings Cancer Center, and director of the MUSC Health To***co Treatment Program.

Third and fourth-year medical students training at our MUSC AnMed Clinical Campus learn from outstanding faculty members like Dr. William Reese, a board-certified anesthesiologist.

Dr. Reese was recently honored with the SAGE Teaching Award, which recognizes faculty who are wise, intelligent, respectable, experienced, fair-minded, care deeply about relationships with others, and help make difficult ideas easier to understand.

He was nominated for his dedication to teaching and for consistently going above and beyond for students. Dr. Reese provides extensive reading resources, valuable hands-on experience, and even uses his breaks throughout the day to deliver lectures on important anesthesia and medicine topics. He offers thoughtful guidance on ethics, career development, and often overlooked aspects of daily medical practice. He is also a great role model for bedside manner and patient-centered care.

Thank you, Dr. Reese, for your dedication to teaching and for inspiring future physicians every day.

We're proud to offer our students opportunities to learn directly from innovators shaping the future of medical education.

This fall, they gained valuable insight into AI in medical education and clinical practice from Dr. Adam Rodman, a general internist and medical educator at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and an assistant professor at Harvard Medical School. He also serves as Director of AI Programs at the Carl J. Shapiro Center for Education and Research, where he leads initiatives to integrate AI into the medical school curriculum.

We’re preparing our future physicians by giving them the opportunity to learn from experts shaping the future of medicine.

Last week, our M1s participated in an ECG lab where they recorded and examined their own heart rhythms.

Using realistic simulation manikins, they learned how to read basic heart rhythm patterns and reviewed how irregular heartbeats can affect blood pressure. *ECG images intentionally blurred*
