1st gen American - mom’s family live in Mauritius (small African island) for 150+ yrs. I went to school not knowing how to speak English.

Being first in whole fam to be a future doctor means I sometimes feel alienated. But then I see my grandma’s award from Mauritian gov’t...

[Milli Desai, MD @millidesai]

Increased maternal infection and cesarean delivery rates with increasing time of ruptured membranes in late preterm PPROM…additionally no short term neonatal respiratory benefits (which is interestingly the appeal of expectant management). Grateful to share this work!

[Cynthia Gyamfi, MD, MS @drcynthiagyamfi]

So proud of my resident @millidesai for her poster of our work! Delay after late preterm PPROM resulted in higher maternal infection! @MySMFM #SMFM25 @UCSD_ObGyn
