Perfectly timed, I received my formal offer letter as an Assistant Professor on my birthday. The Chief's words, "You're my secret weapon, we need you," will be a milestone I’ll cherish forever. Grateful for my mentors, colleagues, family, and patients. On to the next chapter!

Completed the final session of the Abbott Fellows Academy Program for AHFT. Grateful for an incredible year of learning, hands-on, and the connection with fellows across the US. Looking forward to bringing what I learned back to the UWMC HF team and ultimately to future patients.

Honored to present this work at #AATS2026 on behalf of UW heart transplant team, and especially Isaac Knouff, UW med student who led this project.
The meeting was incredibly inspiring, and I look forward to continuing to share our works from UW. @UWSurgery @UWMedHeart @AATSHQ

@RealtyPnw こちらのmed studentは数千万円相当の学生ローンを抱えて卒業する人も少なく無いので、早く独立して稼げて借金が返せる��に人気が集まると理解してます。

小学校でegg dropっていう「生卵を2階から落として割れないには何でどうラッピングすれば良いか」っていう課題でうちの子オムツに包んでパラシュート付けたんだが、持ちやすいようにジップロックに入れて持っていかせたら担任がそれごと2階から投げた。
