Hope isn’t blind optimism — it arises in the face of uncertainty. If you look at our history, we’ve gone through some rough patches. But we tend to come out on the other side of them stronger than before.
On Juneteenth, we celebrate freedom and recommit ourselves to the work that remains undone. We remember that even in the darkest hours, there is cause to hope for tomorrow’s light.
" Writing with simplicity requires courage, for there is a danger that one will be overlooked, dismissed as simple minded by those with a tenacious belief that impassable prose is a hallmark of intelligence"
- Alain de Botton

Had the chance to meet with a chief editor of JAMA today. Major advice for Health Disparity Research, "The novelty in a study is not in just saying there is a disparity, but comes in finding the mechanisms that explain the disparity so that we may intervene!" #AcademicTwitter
