40% of students apply to med school with no intention of practicing clinical medicine? That seems high. Is that a real stat?Physicians are leaving medicine because the government and private corporations sponsored by the government have made our jobs miserable and almost impossible. Fix that first please.

@RepGregMurphy This ain’t it.@jbcarmody has articulated well + extensively why there are ACTUALLY shortages in our field. You are also overlooking the abusive work hours and toxic work environments for trainees that are exhausting our workforce.

[Kristin Lambert, MD PhD @klambertmdphd]

@RepGregMurphy @GmOrr9000 Sir, the govt does NOT pay tuition for every student in med school so the govt is not entitled to a refund or mandated service from all students. Some students truly have zero loans. Some schools also cover tuition for their students thru university endowments/private donors.

One thing is abundantly clear today: Far too many Christians in the United States don’t have the slightest clue what loving their neighbor practically looks like.

Id pay $10 a gallon for gas and $6 per egg if it meant my daughter has the right to make her own healthcare decisions

[John Pavlovitz @johnpavlovitz]

Kamala Harris didn't lose, America did.

As a nation, we collectively failed her—and in doing so we failed girls and women, the LGBTQ community, people of color, Muslims, Jewish people, immigrants, the sick, the poor, the elderly, the people of Ukraine, and Gaza, and the planet.

It's unthinkable, that instead of being able to celebrate a beautiful, hopeful new chapter in the story of this nation with a leader who appealed to the best of our natures—we will instead be holding a postmortem for democracy as we enter our 250th year, stewarded by a malevolent sociopath who despises empathy and shuns the law.

I truly thought we were better than this, that our shared humanity would show up. I thought we would reject this hatred and ugliness once and for all.

I hate being wrong about the majority of the people of this nation.

I don't know what's ahead. All I know is that good-hearted human beings are more necessary now than ever.

We did all that we could to avoid this moment, but now that it's here we'll just have to decide who we will be.

There is no way to comprehend or measure how grievous an error this is, but the only thing the decent people of this nation can do is wake up tomorrow and fight like hell for what we still believe is worth the fight, and we will.

I'll be doing that with whoever has the strength to join me.

I'm mourning the country we could have been and the one we apparently are—but I refuse to give up believing that compassion is the right path, that diversity makes us better, and that love is greater than fear.

Each month an #egg is ovulated from the #ovary, starting the journey of reproduction. But how does ovulation occur?🥚

Our latest work in @NatureCellBio led by @LastChrisThomas and @Tabea_Marx, describes the control of #ovulation using live imaging.

Know what’s associated with depression?

Iron deficiency.

Because as it turns out, iron is a required co-factor for the synthesis of dopamine and serotonin.

And ~40% of adolescents, and even more adult women, are iron deficient.

Dear partners of medical people:

Thank you for supporting us. Know that decision fatigue is real & after a busy day of work we often can't make another decision at home... it's not because we don't love you or don't care, we are just mentally spent.

Thanks for loving us anyway.

There is a human tissue that builds itself up and breaks itself down every ~28 days using non-scarring wound healing and instead of studying that and learning everything we can about it we think it's gross and look for other less relevant models to understand wound healing.

Favorite quote from mom of a newborn this morning: “I got the RSV vaccine because my OB told me it was really important so I went to every pharmacy until I found it.”

Rest of the morning was filled with sick babies with RSV.

Maternal RSV vaccine rocks. Thanks, OB friends!

Today is World Prematurity Day. Fiona was 6 weeks premature and weighed only 29lbs at birth. She is the smallest hippo to ever survive. She has brought so much hope and joy to those with a personal story related to prematurity and many other against-the-odds health situations

[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

Remembering the first woman to be awarded a Nobel Prize, the first individual to be awarded two Nobel Prizes and still today the only individual with two Nobel Prizes in two different scientific categories: Marie Skłodowska Curie.

Curie was born #OnThisDay in 1867.
