Another amazing performance to start our day at #AAMC25! Thank you to Triniti Gistand and #SanAntonio’s Agarita Chamber Players for sharing your beautiful music with us!

Thank you to the gifted author, poet, and @cantomundo.bsky.social founder Carmen Tafolla, PhD, for her moving performance to start our second day at #AAMC25!

Our first morning at #AAMC25 could not have started more beautifully. Thank you, Ballet Folklórico Sol de San Antonio, for a stunning performance. What a joy to witness!

My congratulations to Elena Fuentes-Afflick, @aamctoday.bsky.social's chief scientific officer, on receiving the Francisco Hernandez Order of Merit in Medical Education from the Pan American Federation of Medical Schools! Her work continues to shape med ed and health care across the Americas.

I’ve been in academic medicine for 45 years. This is the first time I’m seeing a perfect storm, as proposed federal funding cuts threaten our ability to provide patient care, train the next generation of doctors, and conduct life-saving research. More from my conversation with @cnn.com last week.

I loved visiting Galveston last weekend to celebrate the @utmbhealth.bsky.social class of 2025! Congratulations, graduates. It was an honor to be your commencement speaker.

Let’s dispel the misconception that medical research is a financial burden. In reality, it drives economic growth and global competitiveness — creating jobs, supporting industries, strengthening local economies, and solidifying the U.S. as a global leader in medicine and science.

It was wonderful to visit the @urochestersmd.bsky.social last week as we celebrated the Class of 2025. Congratulations, graduates! It was an honor to share in your commencement ceremony. 🎓
