Surgery is a necessity. Yet, it is often unavailable in low- and middle-income countries. There was a time when basic surgical care wasn’t available in southeast Liberia. Learn how PIH Liberia is changing that:bit.ly/3FCLgB5

I am heartbroken. My condolences to family and friends. Paul Farmer was a titan of global health, a relentless advocate for the poor, and a wonderful friend and mentor. An immeasurable loss for the world. @PIH

RIP Paul Farmer. A giant. Read Tracy Kidder's seminal @newyorker Profile of him. newyorker.com/magazine/2000/…

I’ve been talking to Jordan Henderson, on and off, for the last three months or so. We talked a lot about captaincy and responsibility, but also about the Super League and player welfare and equality and the NHS and abuse. He has a lot to say. nyti.ms/3wsfhgu

(1/3) The sudden passing of Dean John M. Daly, '73, MD, FACS, is shocking and heartbreaking for our LKSOM community. Dr. Daly's remarkable career as our dean, a master surgeon, educator, and leader has had a profound impact on all of us. We are all deeply saddened by his loss.
