NEJM is a community where physicians and medical professionals have been sharing their research, perspective, and insight for two centuries. For many of you, NEJM is a trusted resource from early on in training through your entire career. In celebration of the past 200 years, we’d like to hear from you, the individuals who make this community thrive. Tell us what inspires your work in medicine, or who has influenced your professional or personal journey, or share an experience that has positively affected your work.

In April, we asked you to tell us about a physician who inspired you.

For the month of May we are asking: What is the best advice you ever got from a nurse? Have you ever been inspired [or humbled]? All physicians have learned important lessons from the nurses who share our role in caring for patients.

Enjoy and share some of the stories that have already been posted. We’d like to hear yours.
