It's #BlackHistoryMonth! Feb 3 is National Women Physician's Day - the bday of Elizabeth Blackwell, the 1st woman to get an MD in the U.S. (1849).

Rebecca Crumpler was the 1st Black woman to get an MD (1864).

There are no photos of Crumpler! but you'll see photos, so let's talk about them. 1/10

WAKE UP BABE, THE FIRST NEW HUBBLE IMAGE OF 2025 DROPPED!!!
Many mostly small, bright objects scattered over a dark background in space. In the top half on the right is an elliptical galaxy, a round light larger than the others, with a slightly warped ring of light around it. In the bottom half there is a barred spiral galaxy, big enough that we can see its bluish arms and its core in detail. Other objects include distant galaxies and nearby stars.

So delighted to learn the amazing Dr. Rana Said won the @aanmember.bsky.social 2025 A.B.Baker Award for Lifetime Achievement in Neurological Education, in recognition of her many contributions and innovation in medical education 🎉🎉🎉
A headshot of Dr Rana Said Dr. Said served as program director of the UTSW Child Neurology Residency for 20 years prior to transitioning into the role of the Director of Pediatric Neurology Education and Associate Clinical Chief of the Division of Pediatric Neurology earlier this year. In her time as program director, she received many accolades nationally, most recently receiving distinctions from the top neurology and child neurology institutions, such as the Child Neurology Society's 2023 Training Program Director of the Year Award and the 2024 American Academy of Neurology Residency Program Director Recognition Award. In recognition of this new crowning achievement, she will give a keynote speech at the Academy's annual meeting in April and receive a framed award certificate with a $1500 cash prize.
