The "Bayés Spirit" as a guide for new generations: How to combine one's personal life and friendships with science and profession.

Recent studies suggest that up to a quarter of physicians in training suffer from burnout and psychological disorders. Scientist-physicians, cardiologists, cardiology residents, and first-year medical residents seem to be more prone to developing varying degrees of emotional distress. Concerned about the new generations of clinicians and researchers, the authors aim to provide guidelines for reconciling professional success with a fulfilling and satisfying personal life. The figure of Antonio Bayés de Luna (cardiology and electrocardiology guru) is used as the ideal example to learn how to combine one's personal life, family, and friendships with science and their professional career. This can be done in a healthy and balanced way, prioritizing the former while continuing to have an intense dedication to the latter.
