2024 @AAHPM mtg in PHX where I presented the Pediatric State of the Science with my friend and colleague @RatnaBehal, followed by a session on rethinking pediatric legacy with the wonderful @JessikaBoles and @amandaborchik. Interdisciplinary collaboration makes #pedpc go round!!

[American Academy of Pediatrics @AmerAcadPeds]

We mourn the lives of the children and families affected by yet another school shooting today in Nashville. Gun violence is a threat to children everywhere. As pediatricians, we will continue to advocate for policies to keep kids safe and to #EndGunViolence.

@DrAmandaT and @RatnaBehal leading the 2023 #pedpc State of the Science with these themes that are emerging in the literature. #hapc23

[Chad D. Kollas, MD (he/him) @ChadDKollas]

The most important slide in all of #hapc23. Now is the time to address systematic inequities in healthcare based on race.

This is where HPM must “walk the walk” on #BLM.
