Teacher with a great resume at SMU

[charger5001]

Check out the new SMU faculty member who is/was the lead researcher for IBM. This certainly is a good catch for SMU and whatever department he will be teaching in.

[Junito]

Interesting...;)

[AUCMD2006]

very nice, he probably teaches genetics right?

[JTP73]

biostats! but he could teach most any class based upon his background. He is very humble considering his CV.

[teratos]

Interesting resume. Sounds like he brings a lot to the table. G

[swimguy23]

I once studied under a leading organic chemist who graduted from dartmouth university first in his class with a 4.0 average. He went on to be a thinker for IBM earning an average salary of >200,000 running hundreds of his own projects and research.....wait a tic.....that was my swim coach.....:D

anyways, nice catch

[UFTim]

biostats! but he could teach most any class based upon his background. He is very humble considering his CV.

Yeah, he is very humble. Do you think he's gonna kill us on Thursday's exam? I hope not. He seems to understand that we are medical students and not math majors. We'll see...

[JTP73]

some of us will kill ourselves for not getting up on this one sooner! (for all you literalists out there--you know who you are--we will NOT ACTUALLY kill ourselves or attempt to harm ourselves in any manner)

i hate to say it, but since i've had stats before, I've sorta blown this class off. I don't think I'm the only one in that boat, but...

that being said, does everyone have their calculators ready?

[jonasp]

wow i didn't know this guy was so accomplished. What the hell is he doing here? lol. Actually I am getting the same impression uftim is getting that he may bring down the hammer on Thursday.After the past few days maybe a challenge wouldn't be so bad............then again maybe not.

[skidoc42]

Yeah, he is very humble. Do you think he's gonna kill us on Thursday's exam? I hope not. He seems to understand that we are medical students and not math majors. We'll see...

Oh yea. :( It will be a dark day @ SMU.

WHen I talked to him, he said that Biostats was way to easy. He told me that his goal is to make it harder...

Tell him that most people only get 1-4 pure biostats questions on Step 1.
To apply my biostats knowledge: 4 Questions out of 350 Questions = Not statistically significant! :lol:

SMU's better off having that talented prof teach genetics.

[teratos]

You will be using stats all your life. People don't realize how important a good knowledge of biostats is for practice. Medicine is based on studies. If you can't interpret studies, and know what is a good study and what is a bad one, you will suck as a doc. There is more to med school than just the boards. G

I agree, but be honest do you use chi-squared in your practice? Have you ever?

[Junito]

[teratos]

I agree, but be honest do you use chi-squared in your practice? Have you ever?

No, but I think it is important to have an understanding of where you get "significance" from. I recently read a study, and thought it was underpowered. Funny, when I calculated the p value myself, I didn't get the same number as the authors. If I just took their word for it, I would have just accepted whatever they said. I used a T-test. G

Thanks for reminding me of T tests. Now I have this guilt telling me to go over them again. :shock:

[Junito]

:confused: What is a Chi-square? T-test? J/K:lol:

[sbturner]

We are thrilled to have Dr. R. He s fantastic!:D

Another outstanding professor at SMU, and there are more to come!!!:D

He is going to clobber me on the first test, but my biostats is definitely going to improve!:D

Best wishes!:D

[teratos]

Thanks for reminding me of T tests. Now I have this guilt telling me to go over them again. :shock:

See what I mean? You'll look like a star the day you are in a conference, and say: "That p-value isn't right". G

[Happydoc66]

That is quite impressive. How did SMU land this one? Does it mean that he blieves in the teaching methods of smu and the curriculum they provide their students? to be frank - yes

[yo_yo_121]

According to the SMU website he studied at the Weizmann institute? Where is the Weizmann Institute? germany?

Why do you post such rhetoric? He may, but why put words into his mouth? What it most likely means is that he would like to retire to the islands, and SMU offered him a great way to supplement his income.

You guys who are all sunshine and balloons about SMU are probably going to do more to hurt the school in the long run. I think SMU is a good school, but you guys go way overboard. You are like cheerleaders on Ecstasy. Sometime what you say makes no sense at all (see above).

Remember when we ASSuME! No one can read this professors thoughts, so let's refrain from making assumptions.

[JTP73]

Actually, I spoke with Dr R today, and he acknowledged that he remains a consultant with IBM. He reiterated that he has hopes of integrating medical and other technology into the curriculum at SMU. From what I gather, his connections and resources may allow for some of that to happen. I do recognize, though, that retention of someone of his caliber will depend upon a multiplicity of factors--some of which are of no control of the University. He spoke of nothing specific regarding any plans, and he merely indicated that he has ideas that could be beneficial to any school--medical or otherwise.

[sbturner]

Dr. R loves it here! He knows SMU has excellent students, excellent professors and an excellent administration!:D

SMU is #1!!:D

SMU is #1!!:D

Hoooorraaayyyyyyy for SMU!!! We are #1!!!!!!!!!:D :p :D

You question one poster about putting words in his mouth yet you turn around and do the same thing.... Intresting.... Yes, we ARE cheerleaders on Ecstasy and we are just as happy and loving as you would expect us to be. I feel that's better than being a grump on cocaine and all paranoid..... maybe you should switch. :rolleyes:

Um, no. Re-read my post. I put words in nobodys mouth. You are going to scare people away from SMU, I am beginning to wonder if that is your intention. G

[swimguy23]

You are like cheerleaders on Ecstasy.

oh the good old days :)

[sbturner]

Students, and I mean great students are lining up to come to SMU!! :D

We are on the rise!!:D

SMU morale is very very high and climbing daily!!:p :D

Our positive attitude is contagious, and it shows!!:D

SMU rocks!!:D

i think i had a good 15 questions on my exam.....2 of which i would say were complete give me's.....but still thats 12 questions that i was able to do in about 15 seconds bc i remembered the formulas and crap

[onesolo]

Um, no. Re-read my post. I put words in nobodys mouth. You are going to scare people away from SMU, I am beginning to wonder if that is your intention. G

Um yeah, I did re-read your post and his as well. You both made ASSUMPTIONS which happens on these message boards each and every day. Check your own board out if your in doubt of that. As for scarying people away, I doubt that. People tend to want to go to a school where they feel wanted and people are more positive than negative (hence the half-full vs. half-empty theory). If you doubt that just take a look at how many people have been scared away from Ross because of their message board. Oh yeah, and that is an assumption but I can say that because it sure scared me away however, the warm welcome coming from this board made me feel right at home. It seems to be pulling in alot of other visitors as well. :lol: Your welcome to join our lovely group of people at anytime. We love EVERYONE!

[teratos]

pre-empted with a "most likely". (no assumption made)

I'm glad you guys are happy. G

[SMUGrinch]

This gentleman certainly sounds impressive. I think this hiring may be two fold. One is that he can teach, very knowledgeable, etc. Second, he has credentials, which can help in securing states. But that’s pure speculation based on nothing more than an inkling.

Teratos,
Come on, you also assumed, don't play semantics here, let's be real. You two left yourselves open for my comment. That is okay, I make assumptions too occasionally, no love lost. Can't we all just get along?

I'm an R2 in EM, so I've seen tons of really funny/interesting things. But this forum is by far the most amusing creation that I've come across in the past two years. After reading a few posts, it's easy to point out who the main characters in this drama commercial are. I won't mention any names, but if you read one or two posts you'll be able to easily identify the one student that probably was accepted only because he's an online forum advertising genius. A few more that think that smu gave birth to them, and anyone who says anything that doesn't beam a bright sunshine on smu gets assaulted. It's kind of like watching elementary school kids play in the park, and then one of them says "your adidas shoes are cool, but I like how nike's look better." So the other kid gets really mad and starts screaming and yelling to prove to everyone that the shoes he has are way cooler than any other shoes, and eventually a fight breaks out.

All of you smu worshipers, leave it alone. Don't ruin the name of the school, or give it a bad reputation. Sbturner....this is not a cult, save the school some embarassment and stop attempting to make the school seem like such a great place, best people, best professors, best lifestyle, etc. A school will only become successful if both the school and the students do their part. The students responsibility is to receive a good education and become good physicians. Not a single medical director or anyone important reads any of this crap that is on this forum. The only way to establish a good name for the school is to go out into the real world and become a good physician.

[Nimmuk]

Oh, I forgot to mention, this professor came here to validated SMU's intention of doing research. He will create a research program, an up SMU's technolgy, per my conversation with him.

I can tell you that this is wrong information. I know personally of one program director who comes on this forum, I know because I personally invited them to see. Second, last I checked there are two government officials who are listed and post on valuemd, one from Texas, one from California, and who knows what other people do. Just thought you would like to know.

[SillyDoc]

Boy, this thread brings back memories. I'd forgotten about him. His credentials are amazing. I was in the accelerated three wk biostats course after ivan and Best was interesting to listen to on some topics.

[mshah1]

I think he's teaching another subject too. Or at least I think he taught one our path 2 lecutes a days...But since they alternate the teachers b/w path 1 and path 2 in our class...I cant ever keep up with who is teaching. And I think he taught for a day or two b/c one of our current path teachers is leaving after round 3 of tests. Anyhow, he seems nice and always happy.

DrMikey,
I suggest you let people do what they want to do. If they want to "worship" a school that gave them a chance to succeed, let them do so.
You should be worshipping SGU because you got in there with a GPA of 2.7. You have no room to talk about, instead you should thanking your lucky stars for getting into a Carib med school. Odds are, even with your "33" MCAT and low GPA, no US school would've given you the chance.

You seem to be pretty big on yourself, throwing out the fact that you got higher or equal to a 225 on Step 1 and doing an ER residency (which I thought ER residencies were supposed to be a little tougher to get into than that). There again, you should be "worshipping" that ER for giving you a chance to become an ER doc. Your 225 is around an average score (Avg is around 217) and SMU students have scored over 250 on a number of occassions.
Yes PD's do come on here and check out these forums for you info.

Some of these people, like Sbturner, kinda overdo it with their cheerleading (we're being Politically correct..no "worshipping" allowed), but you have no room at all to talk about people who are thankful to be giving a chance to fulfill their dreams at becoming a physician.I think your shots at the students and the school is uncalled for. What does it matter to you?

If you dont like the SMU site, stick to SGU and do some cheerleading over there.

Haha. Once again you guys have been able to outperform yourselves. You’re completely correct, I’m bashing SMU. My comments on how some people on this forum need to stop advertising and making the school seem like a cult is greatly uncalled for. In fact, things like this should be promoted. This is the best way to establish a reputation for SMU as the leading school in the Caribbean, or better yet, as sbturner put it “SMU-the best school in the world”.

Seriously, think about your actions before you commit them. You want to know how I got into SGU? I had a 2.7 overall, however, that was my gpa that included all the credits from classes that I failed and then re-took. If I was to apply to osteopathic schools I would have had a 3.4 gpa. I had 210 credits completed, and the last 60 (one calendar year) with a 3.5 gpa (1/2 of the credits were upper level bio courses). For the last 90 credits I had a gpa of ~3.3, and a 33 on the MCAT that I studied for about two weeks. I should not be “worshipping” SGU, or the program director for accepting me. Caribbean medical schools exist because they are a source of profit. Most Caribbean schools do not give you a chance, they accept you because you give them $$$. Some of the established schools (sgu, auc, ross) have a more selective admissions process, but they are still for profit. I am thankful and glad that sgu accepted me and I was able to pursue my dream of becoming a physician, but it wasn’t handed to me because I look good wearing dockers. I worked hard to get accepted to medical school, and even harder in med school. The only mistake I made was not giving U.S. schools a chance. I probably would have been accepted some place, or maybe not.

If I was big on myself, I would post my usmle stats in every post. It would be my signature, and everyone would know what I scored. I posted my stats in one of the posts because I thought it could be useful to the original poster. Before you start attacking me because I made a few comments on how ridiculous some SMU students are, don’t insult someone who is trying to help. The only thing I was trying to do was to point out that there are a few people that advertise SMU. Read some of the posts, it really does seem like some of the people on this forum are treating the school as a cult. Maybe they are doing this because they think that these actions will increase the popularity of the school, which in turn benefits them. I don’t know, nor do I care. And even if there are a few program directors out of a thousand that actually read this forum, then I’m very certain that comments such as “SMU is #1--- best school on the planet” do not impress them. This isn’t a prep rally for a college football game. And by the way, when I do have some free time and read this forum, I do it because this is a serious decision and having someone to give you info/advise/help on anything that concerns med schools, residency, licensure, etc. could be extremely helpful.

Hey Juni711... when gizmo tries to warn about not eating after 12am, he is only trying to avoid a bad outcome. When I joke about how this forum has a few characters that are communicating with planet imanass, it's only a joke and it's not insulting the school. It's actually the complete opposite, I heard SMU is a good school and a few people could actually make a bad name for it if they're wreckless with their comments. So you see there is a difference, and you didn't have to be a verbal genious to figure that out. But I guess as long as you can discriminate between a heart and a brain you'll get your MD from SMU which you can display on a billboard at Times Square.

I get your point but you seem to be a bit cynical in your posts, but I get what you're saying. Nevertheless your input here is welcome. Yeah this forum can be fluffy at times, but I prefer the good fuzzy feeling than the constant catfights :catfight: that were common place in other forums. I try to remain neutral, but at times I see I have to jump in. Can't we all get along? Be nice, people be nice.;)

I guess they figure that after 8-12 months (2-3 semester) they can say that they've "done it all"... practiced medicine, lived in the Carib and got paid for it too!!

[onesolo]

I don't understand why so many people want to try to regulate what others have to say. If someone feels that SMU is the best school on the planet then so be it.... That's how they feel. Just like one guy may feel like his wife is the best female on the planet. Does that make that individual stupied? My what's wrong with you people? This guy that your referring to loves SMU for giving him a chance.... Where is the problem in that? No one is being hurt by his words so why not just leave him alone? If prospective students come on this board and read what he has to say and run away then fine.... That's THEIR decision. Personally, I don't believe that's going to happen. I find it real funny that complainers come on this board and attack us for defending this school. If we don't have anything negative to say then we are forming a cult and are not giving an accurate prospective on the school. Look, if you don't like the school don't attend, if you have problems with the school voice them. But, by all means, stop complaining about each other and taunting people. Most of the people, if not all, that are putting this guy down doesn't even know him. We are all humans and have our likes and dislikes. Just because one person likes or even loves a school and you don't doesn't make you any better then them. Oh yeah, and for the people that send PM's and threaten others because of their posts.... PLEASE STOP! It's a shame that you guys will one day be taking care of other innocent humans. Have compassion for each other and their personal beliefs instead of convicting them for them. I know that some of you just don't know how to do this and that's sad but for what it's worth at least give it a try. Who knows, you might actually find a new you.

Great post. I think it is mostly a superiority complex. " I am in clinicals and thus, I know more than you do ad everything I say you must listen" kind of thing.

Yes I confirm the Weizmann institute is in ISRAEL. It i one of the most prestigous research institutes in the world. There have been a number of nobel prize winners comming from this university. I am aware of this b/c a professor of mine back in undergrad came from this university and us students had the same curious questions so we researched it.

Is this distinguished prof only teaching biostats or is the SMU administration looking to expand his role at the school?

Hello Dr. Mikey

Sbturner also says that Dr. R is also good. I HIGHLY doubt that sbturner is in first or second semester. LOOK AT SBTURNER'S JOIN DATE. He is more than likely a 4th or 5th semester student

[UFTim]

He's first semester. He's in my class

[skidoc42]

UFTim is correct. UFTim!! The Gators, chompin down on some Dawg this weekend! YEOOW!

Tim,

SBturner is in first semester?

[AUCMD2006]

yea, he went to st james claiming that was the greatest school on earth realized that he could do better and now you guys got him.

[sbturner]

Yes I am first semester. I love my class and SMU!! Have a nice day!!:D

Sbturner,

You love everything, thats great!! Love is the greatest gift from God. How did you hear about SMU? You seem to know it for a long time, well about a year. Usually students only know it from the last minute because they got rejected into American medical schools.

have a great weekend,

Bye

I don't know about Sb...but if you check my postings, I go back a long way before I was accepted. I researched Caribbean schools in general way before even considering where to apply, just because of the fact I may not get into a US school. Nothing unusual about researching way in advance.

You can't determine what semester a person is in according to their join date. My join date is over a year ago however I surfed this site for about a year before even joining and I'm not even in school yet.

Solo is right, you can't tell anything from the join date. It's already been said, Sb is a first semester! I'd bet my scalp on it! In the spirit of Sbturner I say...St. Matt's is #1!!! :-P

skidoc42,

Just wondering, Why does your signature have your degree and what subject it is and what semester you are and where you live? Kind of freaky, maybe your are showing off you got a bachelors in chem, JK!
I wouldn't necessarily say that SMU is #1, but it is pretty cool, feels like a soap opera, no wait, highschool.

I heard stories of Ross, makes me want to join there. I like the whole 3rd world survival thing, sounds cool to me.

Check out the new SMU faculty member who is/was the lead researcher for IBM. This certainly is a good catch for SMU and whatever department he will be teaching in.

ask first and second semesters about him

[sbturner]

Come on down to SMU. We would love to have you. SMU is better than Ross all day everyday!!!! Best wishes!!

Now, let me just reiterate what the great skidoc said

SMU is #1!!!!!!:D :D :p :D :D
