TY to Sarah Lee for bringing #disaggregASIAN to SGO: Asians/#NHPI are not a monolith — not our cancers, comorbidities, or treatments. Building better datasets is a key first step to better pt outcomes! Beautiful work!! Bhavana Pothuri

Agree completely. Outstanding grand rounds from THE Dr. Jackie Parchem Jackie Parchem, MD. Further, that OB/Gyn Depts receive 1.2% of total NIH funding to study conditions that affect 50%+ of the population is recurrently mind blowing.

Many AANHPI women experience large wage gaps. Native Hawaiian women make 61 cents and Bangladeshi women make 48 cents while a white man in the same role and positions makes one dollar. We must close the #WageGap harming women & families. #AANHPIEqualPayDay #NotYourModelMinority

A powerful piece. "What I really needed was an attending who would recognize the dog whistling in words like "overconfident" and "arrogant". Resilience — The Last Thing We Need | NEJM nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

This is my dear friend, Nakita. Nakita and I were medical school classmates and both interns in New York City. Nakita tragically took her own life on May 26. She is such a beautiful soul. She was so fun to be around. She was intelligent, charismatic, and confident. (1/x)

These are my teammates. We are Olympic champions. Three of us tried to give birth. Two of us experienced near-death complications. One of us died. We have to, and we will do more. Tori’s death cannot and will not be in vain. time.com/6287392/tori-b…
