Universal BCVI screening boosts detection 9x vs WTA and may prevent stroke in 1 of every 142 patients scanned. Early diagnosis = early and effective treatment = better outcomes.

Just one of the many ways @DrKeithGaddis and his team are helping to build a better future using @NASAClimate satellite data.
Using @NASAClimate satellite data, researchers have created a new model to project cold-water fish populations and support local conservation efforts.
It's another great example of how NASA's eyes in the sky help protect Earth's inhabitants on the ground.

Fortunate to have an opportunity to share my winding path to med & the difficulties of being a #surgeonmom on the incredible new podcast: Moms Who Wellness. #wellness looks different to everyone, but for me it takes a village @GUH_WHCSurgRes @EmorySurgery podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

Before you begin your thinkpiece, the Supreme Court DID NOT strike down Affirmative Action
Admission preferences for legacies, donors, employee families and special recommendations are still allowed
The Court struck down Affirmative Action For everyone except WHITE PEOPLE

Last case with Gold ACS Chief Resident @AMetchikMD She’s headed for Emory to become a permanent part of the #TraumaTribe. We could not be more proud. 🥹It’s never goodbye, just “See you in the bays” 👍🏽💛💪🏽 @GUH_WHCSurgRes
A beautiful article capturing the emotional trauma medical professionals suffer as we bear witness… and the subsequent compartmentalization and normalization of this experience.

Residency is one of the most physically and mentally taxing things I’ve ever done. Here is a phenomenal narrative medicine perspective by one of my very own attendings @journeycancer about protecting our own. Thank you for sharing your story, Drs. Boulay @NEJM #narrativemedicine

Some say that those who offer the Iranian protesters hope are putting them in danger by encouraging them to protest
I say: #MahsaAmini wasn’t protesting when she was murdered. For 43 yrs the IR has killed Iranians in the dark. Shame on anyone who attempts to turn off the light.
Work by a stellar med student (and crew) and all star Gen surg candidate. Congrats @NathanAminpour
