What a great @accordsresearch.bsky.social and @cuanschutz.bsky.social group! Dissemination and implementation science, for the win!

During Pediatric Research Day, faculty and researchers discussed collaboration in pediatric health sciences research, and panelists shared their top advice for anybody looking to be part of a collaborative team in health science. Read More: tinyurl.com/2kc4v6vp

A great conceptual model on bereaved dementia caregiving, proposed by Dr Zach Baker, of Arizona State University. Presenting at #INPCS #neuropalliative

Important advances in neuropalliative care are informed by people with lived experience. Dr Benzi Kluger kicking off the 5th #INPCS meeting. #neuropalliative

The BRAVe Home Meds program is an innovative program that brings medication, geriatric expertise and coordination to veterans at home. Great work from the Rocky Mountain VA GRECC, led by Dr Beck. @cucenteronaging.bsky.social

Thanks @uwmadison.bsky.social and UWSMPH for inviting and hosting me this week. So great to meet with terrific students and faculty engaged in important work across the lifespan!

Pretty great to be here at UW-Madison on the Day of the Badger! Proud to be a UW Madison MD alum. Also thanks, @walaszek.medsky.social , for the question at today's AOA Excellence in Medicine talk.

Excited to meet with Dr Blair Golden, here at UW-Madison! @blairgolden.bsky.social #delirium #nihfunded

While I couldn't make it to an informal @aplaceforowls.bsky.social party tonight, I spotted this mug in the wilds of Minnesota. #decafandbaileys. #itsbeenanotherweek. #family

Yes! My friend Bri @notthecheese.bsky.social , and I are now connected in the open #bluesky, and also because we have season tickets to DU women's gymnastics and have 3 #grants (and 2 mentee grants) under review!! I feel if you have all these connections, you're likely to be connected for life.

Important real-world research led by Dr Dan Matlock and Dr Russ Glasgow and their team. #beeson #Geriatrics @cuanschutz.bsky.social

The Trump's administrations changes to NIH has already had a significantly negative effect on medical research. #medsky

Dr. Frances Collins is a world-renowned scientist and a man of strong faith and conviction. For these reasons, he has always been a role model for me. This is a huge loss for the NIH and science in general. This is also a reflection of how bad things are for science right now in our country.

In these days of the "now times", I hate Fridays. Today is no different. Terrible things are being done to people I care deeply about - people who serve the common good as public servants. I can't reach and hug all of my friends and colleagues who are affected. We are all going to be affected.

This is important.

Please reach out to talk about Clinical Faculty Scholars Program or other early career researcher training options. Applications due March 21. @cuanschutz.bsky.social

How many people do you know that currently have the flu? I know two currently, in Denver, and I haven't asked a lot of people. It's just that common! I will wear a mask in clinic today. Public health matters. Vaccine development and distribution matters.

We are also living this. The VA leads and partners with Universities to conduct research that seeks to improve quality of care, especially for rural populations and through telehealth. It is so hard to see colleagues not being able to keep their jobs.

Visiting friends, attending parties, and going to church may help keep your brain healthy. According to research conducted at the RADC, frequent social activity may help to prevent or delay dementia in old age. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39727247/ @anacapuano.bsky.social @bryandjames.bsky.social

This probably won't work, but I'll try. Instead of #healthpolicy valentines, how about #federalworker valentines? Roses are red, Violets are blue. I like civil servants, How about you?

A way to connect with and support local Denver organizations that do good work, including the Center for African American Health. #hapc2025 #Denver #community

Love connecting IRL! Thanks #hapc for coming to Denver. See you in San Diego (and on the zoom). #communityoverchaos And International Neuropalliative Care Society meeting in September! @aahpm.bsky.social @hollyby.bsky.social @ctsinclair.bsky.social

#Exhausted and #Inspired resonates so well! So good to see you and everyone at #HAPC25 What a time! #PalliativeCare

The work we do is meaningful because support for individuals living with serious illness is common, hard, and an opportunity for hope in the midst of challenge. #hapc2025

So appreciated this today. Primary care can diagnose dementia and then support people living with dementia. More time, training and teams can make it actually possible. #Geriatrics can be great partners. I'm so glad I get to live this! @cumedicalschool.bsky.social #dementia #guide #caregivers

In palliative care, much of my hospital consult work was educating others on the importance of early consults and the time needed to do them well. These two slides (by Dr. Greer and Dr. Temel) are key in illustrating why: much of the value add requires rapport, and rapport takes time. #hapc25
