The Facebook decision shows a court way too swamped in technical detail losing touch with the anti-monopoly goals of the Sherman Act.

Delighted to see that @TaisonBell will be giving the Bazari Lecture on Medical Education this week for Medical Grand Rounds @mghmedres.

🏠📄NEW: Our latest paper — "Capital Crunch" — is OUT NOW! The paper details the policy choices that created today’s financialized homebuilding industry, which bends to the will of Wall Street, restricting single-family home supply and raising prices. As covered in @FT👇

I recently did one of the toughest (re) operations in my 23 year career : a CABG on a patient who underwent pericardiectomy 20 years ago. STS score 0.88%. Risk adjustment is a well intended strategy which disincentivizes surgeons from offering their skills to patients in need.

One of my best friends was a superb primary care physician. The stresses outlined in this excellent piece are why she elected to retire early. @adamcifu

I love this table presented by Dr. Nguyen at #IDWeek2025. This is the percent of time that free drug concentration remains above minimum inhibitory concentration. I will be favoring higher dosing for complex infections.

Spent a lot of time at #IDWeek2025 thinking about life as an ID specialist in the USA one year ago compared to now. Summary: Times are tough, but the community and people remain strong. Stay that way, everyone. (Plus can't-miss bonus video.)

@CMichaelGibson @ABIMcert @InfoNbpas I managed the EBM part of JAMA (Users guide etc) when I worked at JAMA.
