'Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, NYU Grossman School of Medicine, RTI International, UCLA Health and Duke University received $2.14 BILLION, or ~ 50.6% of all COVID-19 funding‼️'

Also, look at all the NIH clinical trials across all University of California Health hospitals.💙💛

In light of last week’s anti-DEI bill in medical education that would punish medical schools with DEI programs, it’s reassuring to see the AAMC putting forward a statement reaffirming the importance of a healthcare workforce that reflects our diverse patient population!

Cancer diagnosis and treatment is a private matter.

May god bless Princess Catherine as she focuses on her treatment and recovery, in privacy.

Many thanks to Eloho Ufomata, MD MS she/her for coming! Put her on your Grand Rounds w/ honoraria list!

Thank you to Eloho Ufomata, MD MS she/her for your incredible presentation on Advancing #Antiracism in Medical Education at UVA Medicine Grand Rounds today as the Women in Medicine Network (WIMN) annual visiting scholar! We are all still buzzing about your ideas and call to action!

Absolutely love this analogy - many parallels to Hospital Medicine. I don’t have the procedural skills or expertise of our medicine sub-specialists, but need to understand their recommendations and incorporate them into my patients’ larger symphony.

Please add Global Thought Leader to that bio!

I've been a part of many programs and offices that do diversity work before DEI was a term. They tutor at-risk youth, provide job training in low-income communities, help file taxes, feed hungry children, and perform free health screenings.

What a terrible bill.
