It’s feeling pretty toxic on twitter these days. Missing the old days of #MedTwitter and not having political vitriol and other nonsense invade my feed. Thinking I’m gonna take a break or even delete my account in favour of Blue Sky.

@DGlaucomflecken Pittsburgh is the best 🙌🙌🙌. You need to do a skit about true yinzers going to the doc after a particularly rough “Stillers” game

@WeichenthalS @env_int_journal @mhatzopoulou @HEIresearch @SRC_CRS Great work Scott! Just had a quick read of it yesterday!!

Dr. Sabina Guler delivers an outstanding presentation on the pathogenesis and approach to managing lung cancer in pulmonary fibrosis.

>50% risk in patients with RA.

Mgt requires delicate balance btw lung cancer control rate and prevention of ILD exacerbation.

Groundbreaking work on sexual function in patients with ILD by @KerriBerriKerri and @NaamaAvitzur presented AT #ICLAF2024! Critically important issue we need to think about and address with our patients 🙌🙌🙌

[Gillian Goobie, MD PhD @gilliangoobie]

Fantastic talk by a fantastic person @KathleenLindell 🤩🤩🤩 #ICLAF2024

[Gillian Goobie, MD PhD @gilliangoobie]

@atzouvelekis Thank you for the opportunity to speak on this critically important topic in this beautiful country @atzouvelekis!!! #ICLAF2024

[Tejaswini Kulkarni @tkulkarn1]

Excellent panel discussing disparities and environmental exposures in ILDs - #ICLAF2024 #CurePF

[Gillian Goobie, MD PhD @gilliangoobie]

Thanks @RobertMTighe1!!

But the critical point is that we have the ability and duty to advocate for clean air and climate policies for ourselves and our patients!!!

[Robert M Tighe @RobertMTighe1]

We are losing the battle with reducing air pollution exposure with climate change. And this has impacts to people with #ILD @gilliangoobie raising how climate change could impact people with pulmonary fibrosis. #ICLAF2024

[Naftali Kaminski @KaminskiMed]

So proud of Prof Lindell, who's giving the first Dan Rose Memorial Lecture at #ICLAF2024 - Dan was an amazing patient advocate who created the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation and single-handedly transformed Pulmonary Fibrosis patient support & advocacy.
Well deserved, Kathy!!!

@DNADoc12 @gretchemaben @shyshy_too The fee for service pay in BC for Respirologists (Canadian for Pulmonologists) is quite good. I work at an academic centre so take-home income is less since I spend less time in clinic or doing inpatient medicine, but it is a very liveable wage. Lmk if you want more info.

I am honored to serve on the Clean Air Scientific Advisory Committee for the US EPA 👇@ATS_EOPH @BIDMC_Medicine @HarvardEnvHlth @HarvardPulm

@DavidZhangMD Cool!

[Gillian Goobie, MD PhD @gilliangoobie]

An absolutely heartbreaking loss of a legendary athlete. I grew up watching @NHLFlames & Johnny Gaudreau was an unbelievably talented player & a super kind person when @KerriBerriKerri + I had the chance to meet him. Thinking of Johnny & brother Matthew’s friends and family 💔

[Amanda Grant-Orser @agrantorser]

Does bronchoalveolar lavage correlate well with radiologic features in ILD? In this real-world study from the @CARE_PF registry, nope! 🧵
