  "abstract": "If you ask any doctor how their day is going, they’ll almost certainly reply “busy.” It’s an almost universal state of being in medicine, and we declare it like a kind of tic. But what if being perpetually busy isn’t just a symptom of being under pressure but one of its principal causes? Bob Klaber—a paediatrician at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust and its director of strategy, research, and innovation—argues that our collective busy-ness is a barrier to all the changes we say we want. When every minute is ridiculously full there’s no space for reflection, human connection, or the careful conversations from which better care emerges—and no time for teaching the next generation.",
