AOC: “It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

Impeach the motherfucker.

Just to be crystal clear: bombing Iran is completely illegal.

Nothing has made me love clinical pharmacy practice more than leaving it full time, taking some time away and coming back part time. This model doesn’t scale well but it makes me hopeful nonetheless.

“What do you mean I don’t work with an emergency medicine pharmacist?” (Let’s fix that in season 2! @hbomax.bsky.social @emrap.bsky.social)

Sen. Ossoff: Who out there in the American public is sitting at home demanding that we shut down cancer research and Alzheimer's research?

🔥 RCT of EM PharmD-led TOC program 💊 330 pts to ED w/ med-related events (MRE) w/ or w/o EMP TOC @ 72h 💊EMP group⬇️ ED visits for same MRE (3% v 22%) & overall ED visits, ⬇️ hospitalizations, more outpatient follow up LOVE to see it! jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

Deaths from heart disease down 75%, that’s NIH. Deaths from stroke down 75%, that’s NIH. HIV/AIDS no longer a death sentence, that’s NIH. 99% of FDA approved drugs in the last decade, that’s NIH. Please show this video to anyone who doesn’t understand why the NIH is so important.

🚨 @acepnation.bsky.social ED Accreditation Criteria are out & thanks to @saemonline.bsky.social & #AEMP, a pharmacist is now required for all Level 1 & Level 2 sites - THIS is the work we're doing to advance EM pharmacy practice 🙌 www.acep.org/siteassets/s...

Just got a paper accepted after SIX rounds of peer and editorial review. Everyone only sees the finished product but sometimes you really have to work for it to it get there.

Confirmed cases of measles in the US. 2020: 13 2021: 49 2022: 121 2023: 59 2024: 285 Total cases: 527 (5-years) 2025: (first 90 days) 628 confirmed cases of measles, and 3 deaths.

This is a big deal. Spread the word. But it’s tiny compared to the totality of what’s happening at NIH. Cure Research for all cancers, Alzheimer’s, everything is being gutted. Intentionally. It’s all getting burned to the ground but the news isn’t getting out. The new cures won’t be there for you.

#Handsoff Denver (I swear I’m a much better pharmacist/scientist than artist)

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

Don’t tell me you care about children’s health when you dissolve the CHILDHOOD LEAD POISONING PREVENTION branch at the #CDC.

CDC was gutted today, entire departments wiped out, including much of the global HIV program. Career scientists and doctors lost their jobs overnight. This isn't just bureaucracy; people will die from preventable diseases, and public health will suffer for years. A massive step back for science.

Elie Wiesel, author of Night and a Holocaust survivor, spoke to us on my first day at Centre College. His words will forever resonate with me, particularly now. "We must take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.”

🔥New EMPHARM-NET DONT EXPAND Study: 💊Propensity-matched, 11 EDs: desmopressin (n=35) vs. controls (n=140) 😷Desmo patients had higher baseline ICH volumes 🧠No difference in good or excellent hemostatic efficacy assessed via hematoma volumes www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

“Between raising the minimum age to purchase firearms to improve safe storage, we’re taking a multi-prong approach to addressing gun violence in our communities and schools.” Press release:

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

It’s been a devastating 24 hours with 3 NIH grants terminated…all focused on the health and wellbeing of trans or intersex youth. If folks have any ideas of foundations that may be interested in supporting the completion of these projects so years of work aren’t wasted, please let me know. 🙏

Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women. More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications. I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.

Still using clindamycin for necrotizing SSTIs? Time to consider the switch to linezolid: 🦠Similar toxin inhibition 💩 Better AE profile (⬇️ C. Diff ) 2 for 1: no vancomycin (🙅‍♀️ AKI) 🧫No ⬆️ resistance www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... @annalsofem.bsky.social

Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away. They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

Perhaps I won’t get fired after all? 😥 www.axios.com/2025/03/13/d...

Love when a pet peeve turns into a publication! Thanks @jama.com for letting us highlight the many ways pharmacists advance patient care & access to 💊 “Pharmacists serve as the critical link between what a prescriber intends to prescribe and what the patient can afford”

Target is facing a 40-day consumer boycott starting Wednesday over the company’s shift away from diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies.

Getting rid of the American workers who take care of American veterans is wrong. Veterans will not take this sitting down - we can make this the newest example of Trump being forced to back down from a bad move.

Being a federal worker right now is quite psychologically demanding. I can’t imagine any of this will have a positive impact on Veteran care. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

Welcome to the Bluesky account for Stand Up for Science 2025! Keep an eye on this space for updates, event information, and ways to get involved. We can't wait to see everyone #standupforscience2025 on March 7th, both in DC and locations nationwide! #scienceforall #sciencenotsilence

My niece w/ SMA is now 7 thanks to scientific advances. When she was Dx as a baby, one option was hospice care. So amazing to see how far therapy has come since then & so concerning that progress towards interventions like risdiplam could be slowed given recent attacks on the scientific community.

Finished season 1 The Pitt on HBO Max. I agree w/ EM physicians that it is a realistic portrayal of ED.. though EM pharmacists are absent from the series. We need an EM PharmD character in season 2 so the public can finally see what we do! 👩🏼‍⚕️💊
