And this is a very nice one for illustrating CIs in regression, and why they are curvy.

Masking is now a requirement for all Pennsylvanians when leaving home. We’re still fighting this virus and right now masking is one of the best weapons we have. More info on #MaskUpPA requirements for individuals and businesses ⬇️ pa.gov/guides/respond…

ICYMI: The mask goes over your nose.

The start of the new med school semester has once again reminded me that no set of scrubs will ever be as comfortable as they look.

Naloxone has 1 function—to reverse effects of opioids on brain + respiratory system to save someone’s life. Every Pennsylvanian has a role to play as a potential first responder + can save a life by having naloxone on hand + using it if they come across someone who has overdosed.

This is a portable MRI. It arose from a collaboration between @HyperfineR, Yale Neurocritical Care, MGH Martinos Center, MGH Radiology, and MGH Neurology. It can take images in a patient’s room and opens up new and exciting possibilities. MassGeneral News MGH Neurocritical Care

Advice from Dr. Bala Chaudhary and Dr. Asmeret Asefaw Berhe (she/her)👩🏽‍🔬🌍 about how to build an anti-racist research lab. Preprint of paper they wrote (to be published in Plos Computational Biology) here: ecoevorxiv.org/4a9p8/. Excited to get into the weeds on this paper during our next lab journal club.

Shout out to Pitt/CMU MSTP's Sean Sweat for contributing to this awesome oath!

Most cases ever and headed to 400-500 daily which will close our hospitals and endanger even the uninfected. With Thanksgiving ahead we are in DANGER. Time to lock down for the common good. People are dying.

Researchers from CMU and University of Pittsburgh are developing and testing a new hybrid microneedle array platform capable of delivering vaccines directly into the skin. It could have an impact on COVID-19 vaccination in the developing world. cmu.is/microneedle via CMU College of Engineering

ACHD has opened additional vaccine appointments for those 65 and older at its Monroeville clinic. Appointments are required for the site and remain in great demand. Links to the clinics and more information is available here: alleghenycounty.us/News/2021/Heal…

America: we need diversity in medicine. Also America: let’s make med school and the application process so expensive (and racist) that people who are poor (and Black and Latinx) can’t become doctors. This is the hill I will die on.

Would be cool if we could all start calling it a “chief concern” instead of a “chief complaint.”
