Seeing Savannah Bananas at Camden Yards and I’d buy season tickets to this. MLB should bring some of this magic to their games.

Just a PSA to say if you know the other neonatologist Dr. Nogee wish him a happy retirement today - it’s his last day of work!

It's anyone's guess as to how many IT things can break the morning after an overnight Epic "Upgrade."

Welcome to America where preventing vaccine preventable diseases in children is not a priority nor is funding training of pediatricians to take care of sick kids harmed by our poor decision making. www.childrenshospitals.org/news/newsroo...

www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.... This is cool. Excited for the future of neonatology and helping babies with rare diseases!

The doctor who is the patient in this story was a residency colleague of mine. Still here almost 10 years after a metastatic cancer diagnosis because of science - the very kind of science that is threatened by politicians right now. www.mskcc.org/news/leptome...

BREAKING: We're suing the National Institutes of Health over their politically-motivated purge of research grants. This is an unlawful attack on scientific progress that puts lives at risk.

Just saying if anyone gets an email from my Dad today that seems off base remember what day it is because this is literally his favorite day to joke around.

Took my 6 year old to The Walters this morning. “Mom this place knocked my socks off, it’s amazing!” ❤️ Baltimore

It’s #rarediseaseday. I remember being a med student and told that zebras are uncommon and shouldn’t be at the top of the differential diagnosis. Collectively though they aren’t uncommon.

I just keep waiting every week to have a scene on the Pitt where a baby is born in the ER and the neonatologist is Dr. Robby’s sister or father because that sums up my family in a nutshell. And also there are just so many elements of medicine the show gets right.

I don’t know where I went right in life that when I’m on service I come home to dinner made for me, kid lunch made for tomorrow, kid bathed and in PJs, and trash taken out for tomorrow. Definitely married a great partner in life!

On service next week and looking at weather forecasts. Looking to be a keep calm and drive the Subaru kind of week.

As a med student I met a child with pneumococcal meningitis. The kid had contracted a strain that was not covered by PCV7 which had been given but was covered in the very newly released PCV13. It was awful to know that kid had just missed out on vaccine that could have prevented a terrible illness.

What would medicine look like if we could pass something where some children/adults can be labeled as medically complex for insurance reasons and it prohibits insurance companies from denying any type of subspecialty care or medication deemed necessary by docs on their complex care team?

Super fun to catch up with some of my co residents from UCSF at the Hot Topics meeting! Excited that next year’s meeting is actually in DC!

Any #neosky friends going to be at Hot Topics next week?

Family thanksgiving tomorrow so grating an obscene amount of cheese today.

Happy Thanksgiving - my family is celebrating on Saturday this year because my brother is working in the ER today and tomorrow. Grateful that we still found a day that worked with our crazy schedules!

Recently have been on a bit of a journey to try and reach out and more directly chat with people who worked with my Dad back when surfactant protein-b deficiency was first discovered and it’s been so interesting to hear how it played out in ways the journal articles can’t touch.

2023 felt like it was so much therapeutic hypothermia in the unit, 2024 is just so many chest tubes.

Our hospital gives out turkeys (+ kosher, halal, and non-turkey vegan options) for Thanksgiving and I walked by the turkey pick up desk this am and it just brought me so much joy.

Just out! The PLUSS-Trial: Intratracheal budesonide mixed with surfactant to increase survival free of BPD in extremely preterm infants born <28 weeks’ gestation jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

So is there like a Neonatology world hashtag I can follow. How does the good place work?

So how much time left does the the X formerly known as Twitter have?
