A really eye-opening conversation with Dr. Goodman. Definitely worth your time.
Is it forgetfulness, aging, or undiagnosed ADHD? @HopkinsMedicine’s David Goodman talks with @SDesmon about the importance of recognizing ADHD in adults and how diagnosis can change lives.

Another terrific chat with @ACasadevall1. Worth a listen!.
A fungus declared a "critical pathogen" by @WHO has been raising concerns about its ability to evolve beyond infection control measures. As climate change accelerates its spread, @ACasadevall1 talks about preventing infections before treatments fail.

Really interesting piece by @KennethBaer and friends. They even name names!.
#DNC2024 starts today, but the planning went on for weeks. @JeffreyNussbaum, @ErikSmithDC, and I draw on 6 conventions-worth of work to dish on what goes on behind the scenes. If you have a fave Dem pol from 20 yrs ago, they're probably namechecked!
