I’m at a conference today. The organisers just told me that I can’t bring my daughter to the networking session or the dinner tonight. I couldn’t get a babysitter. This is one of those times, as a single parent, that you really miss out. It felt like a gut punch.

Heartbroken after seeing a young patient with no medical history, end up with a BIFFL GRADE II dissection of the vertebral artery and subsequent acute PICA infarct immediately after a neck adjustment from the chiropractor. This has to stop. Chiropractors - you HAVE to stop.

1. See patient in acute pain 2. Prescribe pain medicine so they can avoid the ER 3. Patient goes to pharmacy, is told that pain medicine requires prior authorization by insurer (who gave no forewarning of such and will not reopen til next day) 4. Patient ends up in ER anyway

The time Kris Kristofferson consoled Sinead O'Connor after she was booed mercilessly for telling the truth on SNL in 1992. It costs nothing to be a decent human being. God speed Kris Kristofferson.

When Emily and I were at the The White House we told policymakers a reason why our youth don't have MORE examples of women in STEM on TV, is that people actively decide against it. We have to take our own money and invest in ourselves to move the needle forward. Proud of you!

Marie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize. This didn't happen because she herself fought for it -- although she did fight hard the whole way to even get to that point. 👩‍🔬 What happened was that the award was offered to her husband, Pierre. (1/n) 🧵

Got off this plane in tears. Not even sure what I was feeling. In awe of the cancer survivor who I met who was sitting next to me. Turns out his entire family had succumbed to lung cancer and he had survived. He noticed I was a cancer researcher as he saw me working on data. 1/

2/ a thoughtful conversation with this incredibly brave human hit me hard. This job really matters. What we do matters. It’s a huge responsibility. The rigor and reproducibility in our data translates to real people. Real families. Another grant another paper deadline…
