[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

The findings by 2023 #NobelPrize laureates Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman led to the approval of two highly successful mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines in late 2020. The vaccines have saved millions of lives and prevented severe disease in many more.

@trpender I was a big fan of comet coffee and Hyperion Coffee Co although Roos is probably most well known.

My hot take will be while Zingerman’s is good it’s popularity has made it quite pricy.

[Tricia Pendergrast, MD @trpender]

Every year around this time, someone asks why medical schools/students don't talk more about the financial challenges associated with the end of M4.

It makes a lot more sense when you think about the demographics of US medical school classes...
