Working with @MariekeJonkman on this article was fun. But more importantly we learned so much about #impostersyndrome. Notably that I was not alone in my struggles with it throughout my career and there are easy, practical tips to help work through it! #medicalaffairs #coaching

Insurance companies aren’t doctors. So why do we keep letting them practice medicine? Why indeed? https://t.co/i8QiXMaBmx

Johns Hopkins' @SethShayMartin, @rblument1 (Roger Blumenthal, MD), and colleagues put #REDUCE-IT findings in context. https://t.co/UOg09RtMkC #EPA #omega3

2. Used a TG lowering med
3. This is NOT a test of TG lowering

I actually agree after seeing results

[NEJM @NEJM]
