@MGHCVFellows @rkwadhera @rwyeh @MGHHeartHealth The Yurchak slide projector!❤️

It was a pleasure to welcome Dr. Robert W. Yeh as our 16th Peter M. Yurchak Visiting Lecturer this last week at MGH. Thank you for your wisdom related to career building, future directions for device innovation, and much more!

I just realized that the artistic rendering of a heart that graced the cover of many editions of Braunwald's Heart Disease is also the icon of the @TIMIStudyGroup - and the artist is @CMichaelGibson

After YEARS of debate… It’s official- You know that one tiny detail you always second-guess when writing? Yeah… there’s finally an answer. Somewhere, every health journalist just breathed a sigh of relief 😅 Next up: payer vs payor… see you in 2035. #healthcare #payer #payor #AP #journalism

Noteworthy development which rightly should stimulate broader discussion about the regulatory divide across the Atlantic. At the same time, there should more about the need for localization of these doctor-facing tools because of differences in practice across the globe as per @NEJM_A ai.nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

Medicine lost a hero this week. It's wrong to say taht Eugene Braunwald was A giant of cardiology. Because he was THE giant of cardiology -- the biggest force in the field for as long as I've been covering heart disease. His realization that a heart attack was not a single event but a process you can stop probably saves hundreds of thousands of American lives a year. When people get nostalgic for the 1950s, one thing they don't realize is that back then a third to half of people who had an MI *died*. Now it's less than one person in 10! But he didn't stop with that! He founded and ran the clinical trials group at Harvard that is STILL one of the biggest forces in collecting data on new medicines. Cardiology became one of the specialties that was best at deciding how to treat patients based on data, not just on doctor's "clinical experience." I got to talk to him a bunch of times and he was smart, sharp, and could get frustrated with reporters who didn't like data. A huge loss this week -- but he gave us all so very much.. tctmd.com/news/eugene-br…

While he touched many lives, we at TIMI were truly blessed to directly work with and learn from him over treasured decades. We will deeply miss him, but take comfort in knowing that we will carry forward his legacy and continue his lifelong mission to advance cardiovascular care.

We are deeply saddened to have lost our founding chairman and the father of modern academic cardiology, Dr. Eugene Braunwald, who founded the TIMI Study Group in 1984, and with that vision profoundly shaped the practice of cardiovascular medicine across the world.

@hvanspall @radcliffeCARDIO Thank you, @hvanspall . This conversation is a wonderful glimpse into a great man.

This @radcliffeCARDIO Masterclass with Dr #EugeneBraunwald is poignant Achievement in the face of adversity, things he’d do differently if given a chance, & #lessons: A united family is everything It’s noble to work hard Be curious Choose the right mentor radcliffecardiology.com/Achievement-in…

What do RevMed and Kelonia have in common? Michael Fischbach. Co-founder of both businesses. RevMed is up 50% on potentially practice-changing data for pancreatic cancer patients. Kelonia was acquired for up to $7B by Lilly for incredibly compelling Phase 1 data in multiple myeloma. When we announced him joining us as an advisor at Amplify, I wrote, "Few scientists make as many original—and distinct—contributions in their career as Michael." This is what I'm talking about. Two completely distinct modalities. Huge impact. Giving him a shoutout because he'll be quietly cooking on his next big project, not making a victory lap looking for credit. Wonderful human and scientist.

@sacjai I remember reading this when it first came out! Great essay

I spoke today with a colleague who had an angry confrontation while on a business trip. She was the target of racist vitriol. She was nervous as she told me about the episode. Not about what had happened—but about her reaction. She worried she had been too harsh. Too direct. Unwilling to let it pass. Rather than scolding her for reacting to this individual, I told her she did exactly the right thing. There was a time in corporate America and in healthcare when the expectation was different. Accept it. Absorb it. Deflect it. Move on like nothing happened. Even when someone attacked the very essence of your being. I was reminded of my own encounter with a racist patient during my residency—and the evolution in professional norms. In many ways, we have gone backwards in racial civility in the United States in the last decade. But we have moved on some from our culture of quiet tolerance of intolerance. And I think that’s progress. I share my original essay, “The Racist Patient,” below (Annals of Internal Medicine).
