People develop #AI tools that discriminate against people with disabilities. In this story for the @Harvard Gazette my colleagues at @BKCHarvard, @KempnerInst and I at @HarvardMed uncover what we can do about it. news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/… #AIethics, #Accessibility, #InclusiveDesign

This week on the @Harvard Innovation Labs and @harvardmed Instagram pages I discuss digital accessibility and my open-source keyboard accessibility project. Let's connect to chat about making the web accessible for all. instagram.com/reel/C_1Fl9GJS…

Incredibly excited to be pursuing my MD at Harvard Medical School! It has long been a dream of mine to be able to serve, care, & advocate for patients of all backgrounds, and I am so grateful for the opportunity to embark on this journey towards becoming a physician.

“We may have come here to help keep our options open, but I leave believing that the most radical act we can take is to make a commitment to a particular thing ... to close doors and forgo options for its sake.” — Pete Davis @harvardmed #HarvardMed23

Thanks for the quote, @harvardmed =)

Devastating news. Judy Heumann devoted her life to expanding disability rights and making sure accessibility in our country is the default—not an afterthought. And our nation is better because of her advocacy. Rest in peace my friend and hero. huffpost.com/entry/judith-h…
