a little Friday morning celebration for the improved ID fellows’ lounge!! a much needed renovation with more desk space, computer access and brightness 🔆 thank you to our PD, Dr. Cunha, for ensuring a space that meets fellows’ needs!

it’s dress up as your favorite celebrity duo here at BUH today, and our recent fellowship alumni could not resist the opportunity to participate!

Drs. Williams & Panaccione could not think of a more famous hospital duo… 💭 it’s none other than IV pip-tazo & vancomycin 💉🦠

we 🫶 the Providence trivia scene! after many months of “practice” runs, we finally won! now to keep a streak going 😌

[Brown Infectious Disease Fellowship @BrownIDprogram]

it was such a privilege to meet with Dr. Rochelle Walensky! our fellows had an amazing time learning more about her career journey in the U.S. government as former CDC director, while staying true to her goals of addressing critical public health needs. thank you Dr. Walensky!

it’s another great Friday in the micro lab with teaching and this beautiful gram stain prep by the head of our microbiology lab, Dr. Hong!
feat. S.gordonii and a discussion on SBE 🫀

happy Friday from micro rounds!
an immunocompromised patient with high fevers, hypoxia and organ disfunction grows these colonies on charcoal yeast agar (but not regular agar) from a BAL sample…
you guessed it!
Legionella pneumophila 🧫🔬
rare to get such a good gram stain 🙌

nothing says happy new year like some path review of the inside of a surgically removed intraventricular cyst confirming our clinical suspicion of neurocysticercosis 🐖🪱🧠

[Brown Infectious Disease Fellowship @BrownIDprogram]

there’s no stopping these two when the creative juices start flowing!
📸 micro rounds today inspiring first year, Dr. Uddin, and one of our favorite attendings, Dr. Nau, to embark on a probiotic research collaborative… they are already working on their infomercial tactics 😂

[Brown Infectious Disease Fellowship @BrownIDprogram]

a bittersweet evening for our fellows & faculty!
it has been a privilege to know and train under Dr. Tim Flanigan! as grateful as we are to have had him, especially with all that he has done for this division, he will be so missed in his (well deserved) retirement 👏🎊

[Brown Infectious Disease Fellowship @BrownIDprogram]

thank you to the Sylvie Ratelle STD/HIV Prevention Training Center for having our 2nd years at their annual conference! our fellows enjoyed jam packed learning & punny inspiring discussions 🤓

Monday mornings = focused fellow-centered teaching sessions and this week, our awesome pharmD team is teaching us about the classification and treatment of HCV 💊

[Brown Infectious Disease Fellowship @BrownIDprogram]

a great night out with the fellowship! feat. important discussions such as, why hasn’t the pun “deja flu” caught on? how lucky we are to have a PD (Dr. Cunha) and APD (Dr. Sanchez) who are so brilliant but also down to earth. P.S. the buttercake (!!) did not disappoint 😌

[Brown Infectious Disease Fellowship @BrownIDprogram]

wondering what there is to do for fun in Providence, RI? our fellows love trivia nights! various breweries around the city host week night trivia and this one.. happens to be dog friendly, which Dr. Gill (ID-PGY4) loved after a day on consult service 🐶

[Brown Infectious Disease Fellowship @BrownIDprogram]

more snippets from our fellow at ID-Week: incredible case based talk on challenges of treating HIV, co-moderated by our own Dr. Garland! a great experience reminding us how lucky we are to have him teaching us every day!

The “Mind Blown: Challenging HIV Clinical Cases” moderators and panelists are ready for you to join them in Petree B ! @IDWeekmtg @BrownIDprogram @WuidQ

ID-PGY5, Dr. Panaccione, presented her work (started during her residency) today at ID-Week. The outpouring support from the Brown ID division, all the way in LA, was incredible. Special s/o to our Brown IM residents (ID doctors in the making 😌🦠) who also stopped by to support!

[Brown Infectious Disease Fellowship @BrownIDprogram]

ID-Week 2024 is off to a great start!
amongst the jam-packed schedule, filled with incredible learning opportunities, the Brown ID division attendees were able to get together in LA 🌃 we had an awesome turnout from current fellows & faculty to alumni reconnecting!

[Brown Infectious Disease Fellowship @BrownIDprogram]

with so much to explore in Providence, RI there is always something for our fellows to experience outside of the hospital! this week our fellows took a ghost story boat tour down the Providence River featuring a spooky twist on the history of the area 👻
