Just finished #Paradise by #AbdulrazakGurnah—I’m in awe! A brilliant weave of colonialism, identity, and faith through Yusuf’s coming-of-age story. Poetic prose, vivid East African setting, and a slow burn that truly pays off. Highly recommend! thenewpress.com/books/paradise

Tragic but true @paimadhu. Disinformation outpaces the truth, fueling fear and eroding trust in medicine. The Lancet’s new editorial warns that fact-checking alone isn’t enough—we need systemic solutions and empathy-driven communication. Science, trust, & our health depend on it.

Could not agree more. Why don’t most people worry about polio today? Because life-saving vaccines nearly eradicated it. Vaccines have saved countless lives and spared families unthinkable grief. Let’s not take their impact for granted.

Amazing list! These books are especially important as we navigate current global health challenges and the systemic obstacles that perpetuate inequity. Dr. Farmer’s insights remain as vital as ever.

James Baldwin’s The Fire Next Time offers timeless insights into race and systemic inequities—crucial for those in medicine committed to tackling health disparities locally and abroad. I reflected on its relevance in a review for the Daily Wildcat. wildcat.arizona.edu/158909/opinion…

When I was a premed, I benefited greatly from Ryan Gray, MD's amazing premed content. His advice helped me navigate the crazy med school application process. Fast forward to today, and I’m his guest on The Premed Years Podcast! 🎙️ Full-circle moment!🥹 open.spotify.com/episode/4hbPlR…

This moment, painful as it is, presents a chance to shift our gaze. But we won’t take the chance if we can’t really see it, and we can’t see it if we don’t think we are as unjust in our ways as we really are. That, for me, is the question. Do we really think things are unjust?

Just got my hands on these two books! I cannot recommend them enough. They're short but full of wisdom. Great recs from The Healer's Script #phd #medicine #Research #gradschool youtube.com/shorts/jd0a_KI…

Finally carved out some time away from lab to explore urban photography. These are a few shots of healthcare and research buildings in downtown Phoenix. Still learning, but loving the process and the play of light, shadow, and lines.

I'm excited about the Outlaw - Willie Nelson, Bob Dylan, Billy Strings & More concert at Talking Stick Resort Amphitheatre Who's going?!? concerts.livenation.com/outlaw-willie-…

I’ve tried to stay moderate and measured in how I speak about politics on here. But this administration’s assault on higher ed, research, and immigrant students has made that position untenable. What’s happening at Harvard isn’t isolated—it’s a warning. wildcat.arizona.edu/160942/opinion…

You can't make this stuff up 😂😆😂.
