ViVE has launched a GoFundMe page for attendees and the healthcare community to support the families impacted.

One of the lions of policy journalism, a kind man and extraordinary colleague, Robert Pear, died last night.

The NYT is retiring the "HEALTH" slug in his honor, because, as Dean Baquet and Elisabeth Bumiller put it in a note to staff, "it can only be by Pear."
