@AnthonySho53800 Thank you @AnthonySho53800 ! I appreciate you taking time to share with me. 🥰

A genuine question…If you have both X and LinkedIn accounts, when do you use one vs. the other? If you don’t have/use LinkedIn, why not? I’m truly interested to know thoughts on this. 🤔 Thanks! #communication

[Amy Garrett, DrPH, MA, ACRP-CP @amygarrett]

Also, I receive no financial incentives for this question, just insight.

It’s a BIG deal to be the first from your family to go to college, and the excitement comes with lots of uncertainty and worry. I remember the stress of “How will I pay for this?” and “What happens next?” Hats off to @Mizzou 🐯 Proud #FirstGen from #mizzou

[Mizzou @Mizzou]

One in four #Mizzou students are first-generation.

As part of the National First-Generation Student Celebration, President Choi highlights resources for #firstgen students, including the First-Generation Initiatives Office, which opened Friday.

“#selfcare in the midst of caregiving is vital, but #caregivers don’t always feel like they can take the time and space they need to focus on themselves. Yet when they do, both the patient and caregiver are better equipped to continue with their treatment”. 🫶🏼@fredhutch

#Caregivers need care, too. In honor of #NationalFamilyCaregiversMonth, Fred Hutch clinicians offer self-care guidance for those supporting a loved one through #cancer: https://t.co/qWVUixgwX0

@USDA_ERS As a former resident of DC, it’s surprising to see DC on the top list of places with rugged roads (aside from potholes, uneven pavement and hills). Can you please expand?

I had the honor of attending the Meherrin Indian Tribe Powwow recently and am still in awe of the ways in which they celebrate and preserve their rich heritage. I’m grateful for the chance to learn what #NativeAmericans in #RuralNC think about #CancerResearch.

@StephWheelerUNC @UNC_Lineberger @UNC_SOM Well deserved! ❤️

“The U.S. government should use its buying power to encourage multiple manufacturers to make essential drugs, rather than focusing on the cheapest source and a “race to the bottom,” @jrgralow said. 👏🏻#cancercareaccess #drugshortage

Proud to see groups like ⁦@ASCO⁩ ⁦⁦@SGO_org⁩ leading this 🚨🚨🚨 and the news telling the story. #DrugShortage https://t.co/uu9U74iQT7

Thanks to all who’ve served our Nation, and to especially to those who’ve made the ultimate sacrifice. As divided as our country is at the moment, don’t forget that we owe everything we have to people who were willing to give up everything they had to protect us. 🇺🇸

Viewing historic memorabilia of the cholera epidemic at @snow39broadwick whilst enjoying ardent spirits with @UNCpublichealth colleagues is my kinda field trip! Icing on the cake would’ve been a beer with @stevenbjohnson

[Amy Garrett, DrPH, MA, ACRP-CP @amygarrett]

Spent a fun week in London with my @UNCpublichealth DrPH family. Grateful to have each of them in my life. Surround yourself with inspiring people who are smarter than you, lift you up and make you laugh. #LifeHack 🥰🇬🇧

#ICYMI - Dr. Carlos Barrios discusses why he was drawn to #Oncology, the disparities that exist in #CancerCare in #Brazil, why expanding access to #ClinicalTrials is so important, and resources available to help those with cancer https://t.co/NfKUrOGiqN

Congratulations @rbell23! I’m elated to partner with you on #ruralhealth and #CancerResearch for #underserved NC for my DrPH @GillingsGlobal 🤩

“We can use data for good, for equity advancement. The beginning of a data lifecycle is the purpose. Ask yourself why you’re doing this? Why am I here and why it matters? Be honest and intentional with the purpose.” Thank you for your wisdom @drtrenette

Scribbling pages of notes and quotes from this fantastic talk on #equitableresearch and #CommunityEngagement @UNCResearch @TheNCDS See quotes👇🏻

“Consider how you’re promoting the community’s health, wealth, education and cultural identity. Come in with humility, vision, and with the right spiritual guidance. Be culturally grounded before you enter their space.” Thank you @IheomaIruka for your wisdom!

[Rural Development @usdaRD]

Question from @RepAngieCraig for the USEC- we can't treat rural America as a monolith- what should we take into account as we localize our support?

A: "When I think about RD investments for a better future, it's local leaders. RD is interested in investing in local leaders."
