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.

Thank you to @aamctoday.bsky.social for compiling this running list of executive orders by President Trump that may affect academic medicine: www.aamc.org/advocacy-pol... #medsky

We're living this. "So new research projects can’t get approved. The Trump administration is circumventing the court order."-NYT Morning newsletter Trump Administration Stalls Scientific Research Despite Court Ruling www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/s...

This is important to me.

Tremendously more relevant today than in 2014. #justmercy #reading #learning #listening

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?

ICYMI! @aahpm.bsky.social State of the science presenters, featured on @geripal.bsky.social Good stuff!! #hapc25 #Telehealth is important!!

Shout out to the Positive Aging Clinic!! Living a Long Life With HIV: CU Research and Care Strive for Successful Aging @cudeptofmedicine.bsky.social This is good news and great work, combining state of the art research advances and compassionate care. #medsky news.cuanschutz.edu/department-o...

Great recent editorial by Dr Justin Sanders related to an educational program for serious illness communication. #hapc #palliative @palliativemreports.bsky.social

Fun night with DU gymnastics. #GoPios #universityofDenver

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

State of the Science Plenary highlighting the work of Dr Na Ouyang, Dr Yael Schenker, and Dr Marie Bakitas @aahpm.bsky.social #hapc2025 Insightful research about preparation, communication, & culture. @ctsinclair.bsky.social @ewidera.bsky.social @realbowtiedoc.bsky.social @doctatum.bsky.social

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

Love my people. Hug your people. Especially in times of uncertainty. @twitterlessmoreau.bsky.social

Shout out to National Wear Red for Women Day, from the annual #hapc2025 meeting @aahpm.bsky.social. So important to support women to live well with heart disease. www.goredforwomen.org/en/get-invol... @twitterlessmoreau.bsky.social

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

Benefits of Early Outpatient #PalliativeCare Enhances QOL Increases adaptive coping strategies Reduces symptoms of depression Fosters prognostic awareness Improves communication about EOL care preferences Leads to earlier initiation of #hospice services Decreases caregiver distress #hapc25

Hey @thelizarmy.bsky.social , loved seeing you this week. Here's @aplaceforowls.bsky.social . Sorry I missed you when they toured thru Sacto.

Such a robust #ImpSci training program! The Dissemination and Implementation (D&I) Science Graduate Certificate Program was designed to address a local and national need for rigorous training in D&I Science in health services research. Learn more thru the webinar @accordsresearch.bsky.social

There are four current Republican senators who are physicians. Kansas, Louisiana, Kentucky, Wyoming.

Looking forward to #hapc25 in Denver with @ctsinclair.bsky.social @geripal.bsky.social @doctatum.bsky.social!

So appreciative of my scientific community and colleagues, who I now consider dear friends. Loved seeing Liz and Cait IRL for an important funded project meeting. @thelizarmy.bsky.social @cait-desroches.bsky.social #doingthework #nextneededthing

Balancing research and grants can be tough. Learn how CCTSI program director, Anne Libby, PhD, makes it simpler with her expert-led online courses on leadership and grant management for researchers. https://buff.ly/40g2izl @hdaylum.bsky.social, @cumedicalschool.bsky.social, @emmybetz.bsky.social

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service. “Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

Loving this whimsical read. Favorite lines so far: "The ducks know nothing... "The owls are unreliable... #daveEggers #amreading #reading #booksky

www.linkedin.com/posts/angela... Found this #JanWritingChallenge #hospitaliatwritingchallenge

Anyone have a #JanWritingGoal? For my #DecemberWritingChallenge, I did 12 of 15 #writing sessions. I'm pretty pleased and consider anything done in December as a bonus.

Love this #blueorangesky

#primarycare The proposed legislation in Massachusetts builds on the experience of the other states that have enacted increases in primary care spending. These early states, such as Rhode Island, Delaware, Colorado, and Oregon, have paved the way. www.healthaffairs.org/do/10.1377/f...

Important and so grateful for this. Much work still to do for #telehealth to be routinely part of health care, beyond March 31. Every week, I see older patients by #telehealth, helping them avoid driving, avoid exposure to infections, and receive treatments. #gerisky #medsky.

Come to the informational webinar on 1/8 to learn about our Certificate program! Applications for the fall 2025 cohort accepted 1/15-2/15 — we can’t wait to read yours! #impsci #AcademicSky #MedSky @borsikarabin.bsky.social @russgl.bsky.social @monica-p-jolles.bsky.social @bmkwan.bsky.social
