Very proud to find out that I’ve been awarded the Roper-Hall Ophthalmology Prize this year at my medical school!
![Dear Raphael,
On behalf of the Trustees of the Roper-Hall Eye Foundation, I would like to congratulate you on being awarded our 2025 University of Birmingham MBChB Undergraduate Ophthalmology Prize to the value of [censored] for your essay ‘Tele-Ophthalmology in the 21st Century: Innovation or Necessity for Global Eye Health?'
Our Trustees were very impressed with your essay that showed an in-depth understanding of the key concepts of the topic. It was easy to read with little jargon, well laid out, and appropriately referenced.
Best wishes.
Yours sincerely,](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:l43wghalx2x67oif2pqdjao3/bafkreif2ki2pmsuairmzczqlijq56xeak4ege7clpfzzcl37ilx2o3e6by@jpeg)

Back at the theatre tonight for The RSC’s new season, beginning with a footy-themed ‘Much Ado About Nothing’!
Kick-off’s at 7.00, hoping this one scores a screamer or two! (did i get the foot-ball references right?)

Spent the last month off social media to focus on my exams.
It was utterly blissful, to be honest. No TERF bigotry in my replies. No constant spew of hate everywhere.
Quite tempted to do it again…

Shakespeare goes nautical in the RSC’s new production of ‘Hamlet’. With an immaculately assembled cast, tremendous creative risks are taken with massive payoffs in this titanic, utterly triumphant production.

As I reach the end of my psychiatry rotation that I’ve been on these past few weeks, I’m feeling very proud to have been awarded an end-of-rotation commendation, as well as the creativity in psychiatry prize!
On to surgery and anaesthetics next… I’m very excited!

So reflecting on the terrible history of So-Called ‘Conversion Therapy’, I’m hoping we’ll see more Medical Schools over the next year work on making the future of medicine safer for 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ people.
Very few med schools left now on the GLADD Charter… 👀
