Primarily a father to 2, husband to 1, often a marketing professional for the University of Michigan (Go Blue!), and occasionally a spandex wearer in pursuit of triathlon. I also like ice cream.

Glad to see another #MichiganMedicine physician at the #DEI march today on the Diag. Huge turnout, I estimate at least 1000 people. (Including lots of seniors, disabled with wheelchairs, walkers and canes) and a very cute golden retriever puppy named Louie proudly sporting a pride flag on his collar

🚨Here’s a list of just a few of the major pieces of misinformation Kennedy shared about autism🚨
RFK Jr. knows amazingly little about autism
For someone who's been talking about it for so long, the HHS secretary got many basic facts wrong.

1) Not to simply counter the recent comments of complete asshat—and apparent example of a merit hire—RFK, who’s most significant qualification is his last name, with an ableist example, but here’s a boy enjoying a triathlon. He’s also a tremendous artist, deep thinker, and future engineer.

RFK Jr. says there are no autistic poets, so we interviewed one.

Hear from Elizabeth McClellan, @popelizbet.bsky.social, an award-winning poet, attorney, and legal educator based in Memphis, Tennessee.
RFK Jr. says there aren't autistic poets. We asked an autistic poet.
"I will challenge RFK Jr. to write a poem as good as me any day of the week."

Ok, good job, Garber, but I really could have done without the word "private" in this passage.

"No government—regardless of which party is in power—should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue."

Coinciding with it's "No" letter Harvard has refashioned its university homepage into essentially an advertisement for the social benefits of university research. This is the current front page.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Wow!

Three scholars at Columbia, Michigan, & Maryland just introduced a measure of the partisan leanings of employers in the U.S.

The data is constructed by linking voter registrations to online worker profiles.

VRscores capture the political affiliations of 21.8M workers across 2.6M employers.

The stock market is so bad that Fox News removed the stock ticker that they’ve been showing for 28 years for the first time because they didn’t want their viewers to see the truth of what was happening in real time.
