Hey party people. This is a note to say that I am actually going to be going off to Kenya for a couple of weeks doing some teaching, working in the hospital, doing some rounds and the such, and so I'm not sure how much Invictus we're going to get to. I'm actually going to try and record some of the content that we're presenting in Kenya, in Aga Khan in particular, which is one of the big private hospitals in Nairobi, and then we're going up to a place called Eldoret, to a smaller hospital, and hopefully be visiting some of the county hospitals, which is all very exciting. We go at least once a year. Emergency medicine is just emerging in Kenya and so we are doing our go thing, our global outreach thing, where we go and help train the trainers kind of stuff and do lots of procedure courses and just didactics and lots of things. So, very exciting, if you get a chance, go to Kenya. It's an amazing place. The people are just so wonderful and the nature is incredible and, as I say, it's really emerging in the field of emergency medicine.

But it takes time. I feel like I was right at the beginning of emergency medicine in Australia 35, 40 years ago. That was a decade or more behind the US, and the challenges that they're having in Kenya are very similar to the challenges that I saw in Australia all those years ago. And also, we got this week some information from ABEM about all the changes that they are suggesting that occur in emergency medicine here in the United States, and one of them just one of them them is going to a four-year program. Like every program will be one through four instead of one through three for some and one through four for others, which was always a little weird.

And there's a whole bunch else in that document that I need to look at. And that's on the back of the new oral exam starting in 2026, which is something we're also working on here in the Invictus land. So much more to talk to you about. Hopefully, I'll throw up a few of these travelogue educational pieces as we go, and until then, I will talk to you soon. Big updates when I get back Big.
