In honor of Black History Month & Nation Women Physicians Day uché blackstock, md gave a phenomenal Grand Rounds: “Mobilizing for Health Equity” today at Children's Mercy. It was a pleasure to hear her speak & meet her in person! Children's Mercy Fellowship

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed learning about all these phenomenal Black pioneers this past month, but also saddened by the fact that I didn’t learn about many of them before during my medical training #SpreadTheKnowledge #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackInMedicine

To round out our learning during #BlackHistoryMonth and #AmericanHeartMonth Bianca Cherestal teaches us about #DrRichardAllenWilliams what a pleasure and an honor to share about these giants in our field and elevate some amazing work by one of our Children's Mercy Fellowship

No one had to question what service we were with today 😂. I was very impressed with how anatomically correct this heart was & my heart was in good hands with these “surgeons”. Embracing the Halloween fun at work was a blast! Children's Mercy

Single ventricle infants of lower SES have worse outcomes during the interstage period; multi-center analysis of 610 infants suggests the remote health technology app CHAMP® could mitigate disparate outcomes. #AHAJournals Bianca Cherestal Children's Mercy ahajrnls.org/3uWsClV
