My #SickleCell patient this morning tearfully begged me, “Please please don’t let Trump deport me. If I go back home, I’ll die.” This is going to be what the next four years are like. But our Center will use every resource we have to fight for our #Warriors

Looking forward! Online and in person. Free. Register for the Zoom link: https://t.co/OdlBMaMKXX

One of my favorite figures in @MassGeneralNews history. He has a fascinating story that, sadly, ended in martyrdom.

In honor of #RadiologyDay, we’re celebrating Walter James Dodd—Mass General’s first Roentgenologist and a pioneer in X-ray technology, appointed in 1908. Join us in recognizing his lasting impact on radiology.

Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

Clearly, we’re now in the golden age of biology: physiology/medicine Nobel to tiny RNAs; physics Nobel to neural networks; chemistry Nobel to protein structure prediction.

[Sarah Alger @slodoena]

Honored to be the venue for important celebrations like these.

Because apparently this needs to be said: Rule No. 1 for school group leaders is to do a head count before you leave, say, a museum.
