Duke Center for Geriatric Surgery Biweekly Research meeting: Kathryn Porter Starr, PhD, RD presents on pitfalls of identifying and optimizing pre-op malnutrition in older adults. Many pitfalls: lack of universal screening, less protein intake. Key take away: Albumin not sufficient to screen!

Every note and word that John Prine ever wrote found it's way to the sky where they now sparkle amongst the stars. You can feel the light of those songs in even the darkest of nights. It's one of so many gifts he gave that will last us forever. Eternally grateful. ā¤
