NC State Donor Surprises Graduates With Paid Senior Year Debts A group of graduates at North Carolina State’s Wilson College got the ultimate surprise when their commencement speaker, Anil Kochhar, announced that he and his wife Marilyn will be covering all of their final-year education loans in…

When competition exists with Big Pharma, the patient wins..

Received a shipment for the three providers that work in our office for delivery of GLP1s. All of this was to deliver 12 samples. The box has "sustainable" on it. The irony and cost of it is beyond frustrating when the med costs too much for patients. #medsky @mcuban.bsky.social

As an alum of @arizonastateuni.bsky.social Biomedical engineering program and a current physician, am so glad for this (long overdue) development for Arizona & ASU. #gosundevils #asuhealth

Just completed Mark Twain by Ron Chernow (@ronaldchernow.bsky.social). A wonderful, albeit long, book. The book explores both Mark Twain & Samuel Clemens in equal measure. I didn't know as much as I thought about his work & realized that I knew nothing about the man. #booksky #greatread

Just saw #Superman on #IMAX. Great movie by @jamesgunn.bsky.social. Lots of action & humor. Was initially nervous about all the superheroes in the movie but they were introduced in a thoughtful and humorous manner. 👍🏽👌🏽 #LookUp

Always advise my patients to shop at the extremes of the grocery store and avoid the middle where all the snacks reside.

Just finished watching The Pitt. A tremendous medical drama that is extremely accurate. As a physician, I highly recommend the show to everyone to truly understand the drama of medicine. #medsky #ThePitt

Traveling is always a great experience. It opens your eyes to the world around you and reminds you what you love most about home.

Just finished reading The Redemption of Time by Baoshu. A fascinating addition to the #ThreeBodyProblem universe. Gives another layer to one of the more profound science fiction series that I have read (by @liu-cixin.bsky.social). Highly recommend the series and this addition!! #booksky #books

We're deeply saddened by the brutal attack in Pahalgam, Jammu & Kashmir, yesterday (April 22, 2025), claiming 26 lives, including many Hindu tourists. #PahalgamAttack #PahalgamTerroristAttack #Pahalgam #PahalgamMassacre

Important for world to know about #Pahalgam terrorist attack.

As a family physician, this makes me so very sad... #medsky

"Thank you Ice -- for everything." There is no more fitting epitaph on the passing of Val Kilmer. youtube.com/watch?v=BA-1...

Very cool to see @spacex.extwitter.link Crew Dragon bring back Sunita Williams & Butch Wilmore come back to Earth safely. Very appropriate that this capsule was named Freedom. Great job by everyone involved.

So satisfying when a long journey comes to a satisfying end. Cobra Kai never dies.

Am happy to see all the public health announcements during the Super Bowl. ##SuperBowlLIX

Here is the story of one home that survived the LA fire because it was built with fire resistant materials. Hopefully, this can serve as a blueprint for those whose homes were destroyed and can be built back better. Thoughts for all those affected. youtube.com/watch?v=TAeP...

Don't oppose a recharacterization per se, but feel that this is motivated by reasons NOT 2 cover new weight loss meds. There's data that those of S. & E. Asian descent have increased risk of diseases at BMI less than 30 ( around 27.5). Doubt inc coverage 4 them #medsky www.bbc.com/news/article...

Drinking alcohol raises the risk of developing seven types of cancer, according to a new advisory from U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy.

Here is BBC list of the 24 best books of 2024. I thought my fellow bibliophiles would appreciate an international list. Have to admit that I haven't heard of any of them before. So far I am intrigued by Choice and James. #booksky #readingchallenge #bestbooks www.bbc.com/culture/arti...

Death of a decent man whose presidency was mixed but lived a very successful post-presidency as a Nobel Peace Laureate and his work with Habitat for Humanity. James Earl "Jimmy" Carter Jr., longest-lived US president, dies aged 100. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...

www.forbes.com/sites/harris... Wonderful article about the cognitive benefits of regular reading in terms of cognitive stimulation, neural plasticity, and critical thinking. #medsky #books

Knew that Medicare payments had decreased but was unaware that it had decrsd by 29 % since 2001! The best way to improve health care outcomes is w/QUALITY care but current proposals seem to gravitate toward quantity. The more time physicians can spend with their patients, the better outcomes #medsky

There appears to be an inverse relationship between activity (steps) and depression symptoms. The more activity, the less depression symptoms and vice versa. Other factors are in play, of course, but it's a good start for a variety of reasons to be more active. www.openevidence.com/ask/57c651d1...

Just saw the new @jamesgunn.bsky.social directed #Superman trailer. Looks like it will be great. Especially like how David Corenswet has differentiated his Superman & Clark Kent personas. Can't wait to see Nicholas Hoult & Rachel Brosnahan bring their versions of Lex Luthor & Lois Lane. #lookup

One of the things I love about Arizona is the sight of a full moon 🌕 in the morning 🌄 .

uoflhealth.org/articles/rea... Have thoroughly enjoyed the #20DayBookChallenge and sharing some of my favorite reads. I have also enjoyed finding new books from others' posts. Here is a reference to an old 2016 Yale study that shows correlation to increased reading and longevity. #booksky
