Intern: They presented after a week of diarrhea and vomiting. They had a Na of 137, with a BP of 105/65, HR of 115, and positive orthostatics. They are obviously dehydrated. Nephrologist: Were they dehydrated...or were they volume depleted? Resident: So nephrobnoxious

We're going around the Moon. Come watch with us. Artemis II's four-astronaut crew is lifting off from @NASAKennedy on an approximately 10-day mission that will bring us closer to living on the Moon and Mars. The launch window opens at 6:24pm ET (2224 UTC). x.com/i/broadcasts/1jxXgeyMk…

I am thrilled to share that I matched into Diagnostic Radiology at MGH! It’s been quite the journey, from being recruited to the U.S. on a D1 tennis scholarship to applying to medical school as an international student. Each challenge along the way tested me and shaped me into the person I am today. I’m grateful for always stepping outside my comfort zone, and for the unconditional support of my family, friends, and mentors. @MedicalCollege @mghradchiefs @MGHImaging @TheNRMP #match2026 #radiology

I’m sorry, but I disagree with this decision. We seem to operate under the assumption that physicians are responsible for fixing every aspect of society, which is unrealistic. First, we already have trained professionals in nutrition—dietitians. Yet we consistently underpay them and fail to provide adequate access to their services. While physicians receiving 40 hours of nutrition education isn’t inherently a bad idea, delivering the behavioral interventions required to meaningfully change diet often takes hours of patient engagement. In the current system, many physicians are fortunate if they can spend 5–10 minutes with a patient a few times per year. The problem is not that people are unaware they should eat more fruits and vegetables. The larger issue is that the food system itself heavily subsidizes and incentivizes highly processed foods. Structural changes to that system would likely have a far greater impact than physicians repeatedly telling patients to eat more fruits and vegetables. At some point, we need to acknowledge the limits of what can realistically be addressed within a brief clinical encounter. It’s all so exhausting.
.@EDSecMcMahon and I announced that, starting this fall, 53 medical schools across 31 states will deliver at least 40 hours of nutrition education during undergraduate medical training. This landmark reform will transform medical education, equip future physicians to prevent and treat chronic disease, and advance @POTUS’s commitment to end the chronic disease epidemic.

5/ Dozens of recommendations re: anticoagulation management. Highlights include: ⭐️ Preference for LMWH over UFH as initial parenteral therapy in category C-E patients. ⭐️ Preference for DOACs over VKA for ongoing management in all patients.
