My grandpa used to say “It’s not what you know, it’s who you know.” The 1st time I was old enough to get it, I said “That’s not fair!” He said “Exactly! So make it your life’s work to ensure everyone meets each other.” He’s 2 decades gone, but I’m still at it. #advocacy #MedEd

Fantastic piece from @VirusesImmunity. Thank you for always having the courage to stand up for what is right even when it might be “inconvenient”. You’re an inspiration to our team and to so many others. Proud to be a friend and collaborator 🙏🏻🥹

Few patients appeal a health insurance denial, but a little-known process that requires insurers and plans to seek an independent opinion can force insurers to pay for what can be lifesaving treatment. Here’s what experts say you need to know. propublica.org/article/health…

@marklewismd Yes!!!!

Since many of you have supported my daughter’s paintings when I’ve shared them on here, I’m delighted to report that she just won a statewide award among Utah high school students for her excellence in the visual arts I am one proud papa! deseret.com/utah/2026/04/1…

@NPRinskeep What a beautiful tribute. I’m very sorry for your loss.

Brian Jarboe, longtime NPR technical director and my frequent companion working ridiculous hours, has died after an extended health crisis. Brian’s brought you the human voice, beautifully captured, and I want you to hear his voice. 1/2

In case you need the reminder #MedTwitter #OncTwitter 🚀

Viruses and Joint and Tendon Pain You had a cold two weeks ago. Nothing serious. But now your knee hurts more than it has in months. Your achilles is flaring. Your easy run felt like a half-marathon. You didn't do anything wrong. Here's what's actually happening...

@SolidEvidence @michaelzlin Could also be that older age groups are more likely to be asymptomatic, too, right?

I’m amazed. It’s really true: the BA.3.2 COVID lineage is infecting children at a much higher rate than previous lineages. I’m late to this party, but I couldn’t really believe it was true until I did the analysis for myself. 1/

Excited to finally get this one out in @Nature_NPJ! In the largest study of its kind to date, we used data from the @visible_health platform to answer a simple question: can we predict symptom fluctuations and crashes from both the physiological and nature.com/articles/s4174… 1/

On #InternationalWomensDay, I’m grateful for the women who shape oncology every day—mentors, colleagues, nurses, research teams, and patients whose strength inspires our work. Thankful for those who paved the way and committed to lifting up the next generation.

@fumikochino You’re one of my heroes & role models for so many reasons @fumikochino. Sending a long hug to you on this grief anniversary. You honor your husband’s memory beautifully every day with your work. ❤️‍🩹

March 4th. The only date that is also a command. It's been 19 years since my husband died of cancer & my life irreversibly changed. It took me years to feel like I wasn't drowning every minute of every day. Grief & financial toxicity gave me a mission. jamanetwork.com/journals/jamao…

@ChaseTMAnderson I’m so happy to see you here, @ChaseTMAnderson! I am always proud of you & your work.

In 2023, I wrote about being a psychiatrist who lived with suicidal ideation and the need for our society to discuss suicidality openly to decrease stigma. In April 2025, I wrote about the framework I used to notify others, create goals to keep me alive, cultivate self-love, and radically accept my suicidality when it arose. In August 2025, I wrote about the framework I use to turn each and every suicidal thought from a seemingly insurmountable force into solvable components. Today, we move forward in my narrative. This time, I write to you all to share the four steps I use to navigate and continue my healing journey in the months after my suicidality goes into remission. Honored to publish in @medpagetoday with my newest piece, “Living After Suicidality: A Physician’s Framework for Healing After Their Suicidality Goes into Remission.” So much love and gratitude to @genevievefri for the stellar edits along with the thoughtfulness and care she put into collaborating on this article.
