UNC Health Endovascular Center marked its grand opening on April 10th, with speeches from Drs. Kohi, Mauro, Burke, and Hladik. The facility, ready for operation thanks to tireless efforts, anticipates serving North Carolina's community needs.

This is huge news: The FTC has just completely banned noncompete agreements by employers which prevent most workers from joining rival firms. It is now ILLEGAL for employers to make employees sign noncompete agreements. Is this a good move?

ACGME: "After 16 hours of continuous duty, residents are encouraged to engage in strategic napping" lol
