After 9 years, I have decided to step down as Program Director for the MassGeneral Medicine Residency. I am so grateful for the privilege to serve our residents and give back to a program that gave me so much. The faculty, admin team & residents are simply amazing. Team-we did good! ❤️

We were honored to have Dr. Tomeka Suber from PACCSM visit us for Research Conference today! Dr. Suber shared her work using both animal models and bedside human clinical studies to study the mechanisms underlying host resilience in acute lung injury.

Our faculty's research spans bench to bedside. Today at research conference, Dr. George Alba talked about the role of NEDD9 in pulmonary vascular dysfunction in mouse & patient human studies, and Dr. James Moon discussed T cell responses & autoimmunity after lung injury in mice.

Tomorrow, Thursday Nov 9, 8am, Dr. Kathryn Hibbert (Kathryn Hibbert) will be giving MassGeneral Medicine Grand Rounds and sharing her incredible work using novel imaging approaches to understand ARDS heterogeneity! Livestream link here: healthcare.partners.org/streaming/Live…

James Mojica, MD, vice chief & clinical director of pulmonary & critical care at Mass General, answers questions about chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a condition that challenges one's ability to breathe. See symptoms: spklr.io/6013mprS #COPDAwarenessMonth

Two great faculty WIP today from @rsknipe, MedoffLab relating to lung fibrosis! Dr. Knipe focused on endothelial cell signaling, including recently published work in ATS Red Journal. atsjournals.org/doi/abs/10.116… Dr. Medoff presented prelim work to understand mechanosensing by fibroblasts.

What an honor to have Dr. Robert Brown, a leader and legend in our division, share his reflections on his career for Grand Rounds. Dr. Brown shared many stories and lessons and left us with a final challenge: to keep MGH a great community with providers who feel part of a team.

We are absolutely delighted to welcome this amazing class of new fellows to the MGH/BIDMC Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine Fellowship in July 2024! MGH Division of Pulmonary & Critical Care Medicine BIDMC Pulmonary, Critical Care, and Sleep Medicine

Congratulations to Julie for her new role! This is a win for science at Vanderbilt, IMHO. news.vumc.org/2023/02/23/bas…

Some of the data Chris Worsham presented in his WIP is now published! Dr. Worsham and colleagues were interested in the optimal timing of influenza vaccination in young children, and examined rates of influenza diagnosis by birth month. Read more here: bmj.com/content/384/bm…

Congratulations to @ViralShahMDPhD for receiving the ASCI Emerging-Generation Award! This award recognizes pre-faculty appointment physician-scientists who are meaningfully engaged in immersive research. Dr. Shah studies the role of airway epithelia in health and disease.

A great summary of the discussion at the Pulmonary Fibrosis Stakeholder Summit, covering the current state of research and future opportunities in the field! Dr. Sydney Montesi and Dr. Lida Hariri (Lida Hariri) from our division are among the all-star authors!

The samples in this study survived a nuclear disaster, global pandemic, and mass shooting (ask me offline) to provide some solid pilot data for future planned work. Glad these events are behind us, and kudos to Sarah Katsandres & team for persisting. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Hemnes to lead VUMC Division of Allergy, Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine!!! Congratulations Anna!

The annual Massachusetts Thoracic Society meeting is off to a great start ⁦Massachusetts Thoracic Society (MTS)⁩. So many great pulmonologists from across the state getting together to catch up. Special thanks to President Kai Saukkonen and President Elect ⁦@FinnHawkins⁩.

Congratulations to my great friend Wolfgang Kuebler, who received the Comroe Award and Lectureship from the American Physiological Society. Wolfgang’s impact on endothelial physiology cannot be overstated. I am grateful for his friendship, teaching, and advice over many years.

Congratulations to our very own Gary Ruvkun, PhD, from Dept. of Molecular Biology, MGH on receiving the Nobel Prize in medicine! Read more about his lab and research: molbio.massgeneral.org/labs/ruvkun-la… #microdna

Each year ATS selects two young investigators to present their research Asian Pacific Society of Respirology ATS President Irina Petrache, MD, ATSF presented awards in Hong Kong to Daniel Croft, MD, MPH, ATSF, from URMC Department of Medicine and Christopher V.
