Why does the science on COVID-19 keep changing?!!! 😤 If we think of research like building a puzzle without knowing what it’s supposed to look like, it makes more sense... Try it out: can you guess what this will be by the 30 second mark?!

My latest in Nature Human Behaviour . Academia owes JWB, Ph.D. & Shardé M. Davis, Ph.D. A LOT for #BlackInTheIvory. In response, I saw a lot of "listening & learning." Black academics (Esp #ECR) don't have time for listening & learning. There are things to be done now nature.com/articles/s4156…

It hurts that she had to think about this in her final moments. It hurts that she felt the weight she did in her final years. I’m grateful for her strength and wish she didn’t have to be so strong.

We are dealing with a massive public health crisis on a scale none of us has ever lived through before, and yet many senior public health folks are shushing junior folks who speak out & warning us to think of our careers. But what is my career for, if not to speak up now?

You may have heard the shocking headline that 250,000 people die every year in the US due to misdiagnosis in the ER. You may be even more shocked to know that this statistic is extrapolated from the death of... just one man. in a Canadian ER. over a decade ago.

Do health care workers benefit from unionizing? I asked myself this nearly 2 years ago and wanted to investigate. Today, that investigation was published JAMA . Short 🧵.

As an IM resident in the ICU, I felt like my male colleagues were doing tons of lines while I got few. I wondered: am I imagining this? Is this gendered? Turns out others wondered the same. So we decided to study it. The results are now out in @atsscholar. atsjournals.org/doi/full/10.34…

USAID is enduring am unlawful shutdown, purge, and dismantling. It’s thrown its vital work into turmoil—based on spurious, absurd, and willfully slanted attacks. Here's what’s real: the massive and growing harm now being caused. nytimes.com/2025/02/01/hea…

USAID being unlawfully dismantled. DOGE member has closed HQ. New tranche of workers cut off email. Staff tell me, "It is frightening being inside USAID right now. Our checks and balances failed. Congress has abdicated its responsibilities.” And Sec. Rubio has abdicated his.
