Dr. Riella delivered an outstanding plenary lecture on his and the MGH team’s truly pioneering work in xenotransplantation. While much research needs to be done, there is real promise for the thousands of patients with ESRD. Congrats and thanks Dr. Riella @LVRiella #TTS2024

Real privilege to get to watch Dr. Montgomery from @nyulangone receive the prestigious and well deserved Starzl award for yet another historic medical advance that Dr. Montgomery has helped propel forward. Thanks and congrats Dr. Montgomery and all involved #TTS2024

@Delta why is your gate agent here in MSP rudely forcing passengers to check bags when there’s tons of overhead space. There were at least 8 nearly empty overhead bins. Im sure the ground crew in raleigh will be as unhappy as us passengers are. I hope you address this.

This is much more than a headline. It’s a beautiful story to read! and hopefully a call to action for the public sector to do their part to help remove financial barriers to higher education.

@chrissyfarr Baggage check (preferably curbside) everything except what you need to survive the airport and flights. Plan everything in 30 minute increments. Food, entertainment switches, potty breaks, leg stretching etc. Don’t be surprised by anything. plan for the worst & hope for best.

@chrissyfarr “Tell anybody who you would tell if something were to go wrong” aka closest friends and family. That’s the rule we followed for my wife’s two pregnancies

@liisekayler Congratulations and thanks for all you do, Liise and team!

@chrissyfarr Turks beaches used to (may still) have kids club/daycare for kids in diapers. Nice to feed the little ones then drop them off and enjoy an adult dinner. Overcoming parental guilt is probably the hardest part!

[Steven Rizk @steve_rizk]

@DrJenGunter I had the same thing. Both of my kids ended up testing positive for strep even though I tested negative. Strange bugs for sure.

[Steven Rizk @steve_rizk]

@chrissyfarr Relocated from the Bay to the east coast at roughly the same time as you and am dealing with exactly the same thing! It’s been rough. Hopefully the light at the end of the tunnel is near!

[Steven Rizk @steve_rizk]

@Dorry_Segev Thanks for speaking up. Such a dangerous disgrace.

[Steven Rizk @steve_rizk]

@chrissyfarr That is just stupid. Sorry. Hopefully the next beer serving establishment wasn’t too far away.

@eortoniii @matthewherper @NicholasFlorko @LizzyLaw_ Their argument, of course, is that this is a life saving and cost saving proposal due to reduced incidence of liver cancer and need for liver transplants. Validating the $’s is not my specialty but that’s at least the proposal

[Steven Rizk @steve_rizk]

@matthewherper @NicholasFlorko @LizzyLaw_ Here’s some data from the UK on their efforts that may provide additional context https://t.co/m6QnDPxTa6
