Fond memories of 2024. Myeloma woMMen docs making a difference. Get ready 2025! 😜😘

NIH Director, Dr. Monica Bertagnolli exits stage left… Having served in the lead role since November 2023, kudos to Dr Bertagnolli for setting a research agenda for the 138 year old institute that considered the health issues of ALL Americans. Thanks for your selfless service @drjunejd.bsky.social

I had this hilarious dream last night. I was dying, but it wasn't sad - more like in the Disney movie Coco, going across a flower bridge. I'm halfway across the bridge and I stopped cold and yell, “Wait I've still got econsults in my Epic inbasket!"

My toxic trait is making sweeping assumptions about someone’s character by how they drive in a grocery store parking lot.

2025 hopes: Promotion to full professor?As I sit in a small town cafe in Northern WI, I hear the words flung at me 8 years ago before Assoc “You’re not ready.” Those words burned my world down & made me rebuild it all, finding my identity in who I am (a child of God) rather than what I’d done.

It is well with my soul… 2024 was relentless and, quite frankly, horrible. I found some healing this AM. May the Hope that is Christmas rest on you as well. ❄️

If universities want to retain female faculty they need to deal with the people who create hostile workplaces. That means actually dealing with sexual harassers, assholes, bullies, and every else who scores high on the dark triad. If not, you will lose your best people over and over again.

#MedSky One of the most concerning things to me about #AI is how confident it is even when it has no idea what it’s talking about. Who’s training the AI? 🤔 Just one example: behold the radius, the ulna, and a spare? #WomenInMedicine #WomenInSTEM #WomenInTech cc @erictopol.bsky.social

I’m an introvert who will be spending Christmas in a 3BR lake cottage with 10 people and am contemplating if people would notice if I made myself a little nest in the furnace room to escape to…

ASCO has arrived folks!! Let’s keep up this momentum! please follow the links below! #OncSky #CanSky #CancerBS #BCSM

This is why I ❤️ my new city: Omaha is COVERED in ice & shining bright with kindness today. Ice storm hit last evening while teens at a 🤖 tourney. Took us 90 min going 5-15mph to get them. One of their friends 🚗 got stuck - couldn’t make it up hill & an Omaha resident took him in for the night. ❤️

Excited that the results of the phase I/II trial of modakafusp alfa in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma are now published in @bloodjournal.bsky.social. This agent has a novel mechanism of action and has single-agent activity. #mmsm

19 years after my very 1st ASH, this introvert finally figured it out: I’m not heading home exhausted 1) said no to everything that wasn’t an immediate yes in my mind when invited 2) didn’t do any big social events that I find draining 3) paid attention to my internal 🔋🪫/change plans when necessary.

"Women full professors are 19% more likely than men at the same career stage to leave academia, as compared with 6% for women assistant professors and 10% for associates."

Excited to be a myeloma spy at the @womeninlymphoma.bsky.social steering committee meeting to learn & hopefully create something similar for #woMMen of myeloma!
