Lynn Grace, 68, was out of options for her pulmonary fibrosis and signing up for hospice & end-of-life care, when Dr. Anupam Kumar (@umn_dom) and the @MHealthFairview transplant team stepped in.
Just two weeks later, on Christmas Day 2023, Lynn received the life-saving call she’d prayed for. Read more: https://t.co/8QDqsRASbu.

@BCCI Incredible grit, composure, and skill from a 21-year-old under pressure at the crease! Here's to this star ⭐️ shining even brighter in the future. Not to forget @WashingtonSund3 digging it out like a rock to make all this happen.
@ShashiTharoor Delhi’s air quality is a perfect reminder that we’re all breathing in the results of years of neglect. Who needs clean lungs when you can enjoy the free 'pollution therapy' that comes with every breath? Sad indeed.
@virenkaul@PulmCrit Reminds me of COVID when home grown/brewed sanitizers appeared! Perhaps we all should start cooking 😀 Unintended conservative fluid restriction though #pulmcc#icu
So, AI can analyze X-rays and estimate spirometry! It’s not just reading between the lines—it’s taking deep breaths too! #AI#HealthTech#DeepLearning" A deep learning-based model to estimate pulmonary function from chest x-rays! Interesting times! 🫁 https://t.co/jZZFufONA2
