Next incredible figure in our DEI Committee's Did You Know Series: Judith Heumann. Take a moment to learn about the Mother of the Disability Rights Movement in the U.S., who tirelessly advocated for people with disabilities like herself. Courtesy of stellar PGY1 Dr. Shani Litwin!

Happy Hospitalist Day to our wonderful Pediatric & Med/Peds Hospitalists!! We wouldn't be able to take such excellent care of our newborns, kids, & young adults without you & your countless hours of work & teaching. (Yes they're posing in our hospital playground, very on-brand😂)

RSV is spreading rapidly in the community these days, so check out this infographic about what it is, how it spreads, how to prevent it, & when you should get to the hospital! Thanks to the members of @HarborUCLAEM & the Division of Pediatric Infectious Disease who made this!

my flight that I in fact did not have a ticket (and mysteriously getting disconnected from the online chat and phone call after I'd re-explained the situation multiple times...), and now not responding to my refund requests in the last 3 weeks... I'm eagerly awaiting a reply!

Happy Juneteenth!!! We celebrate this day that the last enslaved African Americans in Galveston, TX were finally informed that the Civil War had ended and that they were finally free on June 19, 1865 -- 2.5 years after the Emancipation Proclamation.

[Harbor-UCLA Peds @HarborUCLAPeds]

We commemorate this victory while acknowledging we've still got plenty of work to do to secure true and equitable freedom for all 🎉💪🏿🙌🏾🎉

Successful last DEI Book Club meeting of the academic year, and the first in-person one since The Before Times thanks to the vaccines! Several rising PGY1s, 2s, 3s, new grads, new chiefs, & faculty had a great time discussing the documentary Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution 🎥
