PAIR Center

PAIR with Pride! We were super excited to celebrate Pride Month with Covenant House this year, participating in their SPADES youth program. A wonderful tie-dyed time was had by all.

Closing out the week with important new health equity research from PAIR faculty @garyweissman, @ScottHalpernMD, and Dr. Alex Moffett. Happy weekend! penntoday.upenn.edu/news/penn-ldi-…

Thank you @DrDeidraCrews for your terrific talk at the PAIR Centerwide Series yesterday! The connections you made between food apartheid and kidney health were illuminating and powerful, and we are looking forward to learning more in future. Perhaps, a part two next year?

"Accurate, objective triage guidelines are essential...understanding who benefits from ICU admissions and why." Learn more in a new editorial on the contributions made by @georgeanesi, @ScottHalpernMD and others on the PAIR ICU Net Benefits project. Out now in Annals ATS.

PAIR faculty member @georgeanesi and team recently published a paper on hospital stress in Critical Care Medicine. Surprisingly, during the COVID-19 pandemic perceived hospital stress persisted for weeks after surges in cases peaked. Read more here: journals.lww.com/ccmjournal/Ful…

**Happening Tomorrow!** The PAIR Centerwide Series continues with Dr. Brie Williams from the University of California, San Francisco. Her lecture,“Aging and Dying in Prison: Integrating geriatrics and palliative care into criminal justice reform”, will be highly informative one.

Acknowledging again @MasterySchools and the fantastic work they are doing to improve education, a known social determinant of health. We especially want to salute Marvin Lovell, a fantastic advisor and partner to PAIR faculty member, @JHartMD, and team.

Big thanks to @MasterySchools for allowing the PAIR family to support the tremendous work you are doing. As the saying goes, team work makes the dream work! We appreciated helping to organize your storage room for books. Special shout out to Audrey, our junior PAIR staffer! :)

Saluting our own @ChesleyMd for his research and continuing advocacy for health equity, especially, helping to lead the White Coats for Black Lives demonstration at Penn. According to @ScottHalpernMD, "Dr. Chesley represents the change our field needs."

Today, we salute Morgan Lloyd and the African American Museum in Philadelphia @aampmuseum. As a museum educator, Ms. Lloyd improves health equity by helping others to understand the Black experience in society overall, and by promoting anti-racism. aampmuseum.org

So proud of this group and appreciate their many efforts to improve research practices!! @PennCHIBE @PAIRCenter

Black History Month 2023 - We salute Kathy Epps and the Urban League of Philadelphia this week! Kathy is a wonderful partner and advisor on our Healthy Lungs program, an expression of Urban League's vow to improve quality access to health care. @ULPhilly urbanleaguephila.org
