well said. i am so sad. Holly was an inspirational person, colleague and friend. May her memory be a blessing.
With great sadness, I note the death of my friend & colleague Holly Humphrey, CEO of @macyfoundation. Holly's career was a model of integrity, grace, and joy, and her influence on medical training – and thousands of trainees – was profound. Rest in peace.

Agree, Ade! But no doubt profitable. Just not good for patients. We should not be screening for CAD, nothing good comes from it.
Lung cancer screening shows marginal benefit at best and no overall survival benefit. now researchers are suggesting we use it for screening to detect coronary artery disease. this is madness.

Severe underinvestment in companies started by women! Was 2%, now is 1%!! .
Women are not a niche market. Women drive economics. Inclusion is not the same as understanding. Powerful discussion about the financial and societal impact of research funding for women’s health, by @WHAMnow founder Carolee Lee and president Dr. Lori Frank @RANDCorporation .

Great article on why evidence of benefit is so important. Ideally before @FDAcdrhIndustry approval and clinical use (for #SCS ). #UCSFproud A @JAMANetwork sweep here!.
Medical practices can become so entrenched that they continue for years without raising eyebrows. Later, we sometimes learn they had scant basis in fact. The latest New Old Age points out a few to question:
