Watching the hearings with Dr. Tony Fauci today, I'm saddened by what is not happening There are real, substantive issues about how we responded to the pandemic in 2020 How our failures in surveillance and testing meant some of the tools we used were likely too broad and blunt

Did u know your child’s doctor is paid 25% less than adult docs with the same yrs of training and debt? The way we fund care in this country is backwards, leading to a dwindling pool of med grads choosing pediatrics @bvincibmc and I propose a fix here:

A nation with too few pediatricians could see health care costs soar.

Excited to see this work come out!! Congratulations to Lexi, Hee Won, Mark, and everyone else who worked on this great collaboration.
Another great collaboration with Mark Saltzman’s lab. We showed that polymer nanoparticles poly(amine-co-ester) PACE can be used to deliver mRNA as a 👃🏼 #mucosal nasal vaccine to protect mice from lethal SARS-CoV-2 challenge. @tianyangmao @BenIsraelow
