Will be highlighting our new patient and caregiver advisory panel, and hoping to encourage our funded FQHC to highlight their many successes. We have now funded over $1M into CA FQHC to help with their QI efforts. Not too shabby for an all-volunteer nonprofit. #MedSky #Gastrosky #GISky #PublicHealth

dropped off markedly. To make a cash donation (I also did this so they could supplement with perishable food): give.ucdavis.edu/FASA/322731 . #Medsky #GISky #PublicHeatlh #Food4All @ucdavis.bsky.social #UniversityLife

once I realized that this financial situation was untenable. Students currently don't have the same options as I did way back then. So, check your local university and see whether they have a similar program. The person staffing the pantry indicated that the county food bank supplies have also

Students should be able to focus on their studies rather than their next meal. I remember what it was like with my parents supporting me for a bit as an undergrad and only having a couple of dollars in my checking account. I had the benefit of scholarships and then student loans

Wonderful! As an all volunteer nonprofit working to improve the care continuum at community health centers (among other things), not having access to full articles but having years worth of systems level QI data that needs to be published, this is a perfect model to help.

These are great! Planning a conference for next year - these are great conversation starters! Also, since I do the opening - might be a funny way to have people stand based on how they identify as part of the opening.

2y later, realize a lesion on my kidney was dismissed as nothing & now I am out 2y later with signs and symptoms of RCC. If CT shows presence of concerning lesion, we might want to be including more use of AI in complicated patients, as part of the “what are we missing” approach. #MedSky #GastroSky

but also that these locations track for all family members (the critical n of 1 consideration). A colleague (Lynch expert) suggested 2y ago that I have an annual MRI because of a shared mutation with my brother who died of RCC. My less than intellectually curious oncologist was dismissive and yet

Also curious how Claude’s very honed (many questions/scenarios presented based on complex medical hx) will be accurate or not for an upcoming scan. If validated, might provide new insights to how atypical Lynch patients may not only be at risk of cancers in atypical locations

red flags across all specialities - likely even more important for patients who see multiple specialists all ordering tests for their purposes but maybe not reviewing tests that others ordered, or that were ordered during ED visits.

that my recurrent TNBC that was dx in 2019 (mammogram) was actually imaged as being there in 2018 with classic breast cancer signs but it was never flagged as needing followup. My history was ignored. Further reminds me about the need for EHR passport that integrates

Apparently the governor just signed new legislation banning ultra processed foods in schools as well - we seem the perfect state to test this given the farm to fork mentality and the amount of the world’s food supply we grow. Should be interesting also given the free breakfast and lunch for all kids
