Science does not know borders and good science cannot happen in isolation. The only way we will find truth and improve patient care is to collaborate. This is just one example of an amazing international collaboration to sort through the mountains of genetic data we have in VWD. #isth2025

It has been 40 years since the cloning of the VWF gene was published. Very fitting that the ISTH SSC is focusing this year’s talks on the role of genetics in VWD. Names of so many giants in VWD science who mentored all of us who continue the scientific and clinical work today. #isth2025

Every time I attend a scientific conference, I’m reminded of this New Yorker cartoon by Steve Macone

In case anyone is wondering why I haven’t responded to emails or text messages, it’s because this girl came home recently! Her name is Quinn, her dads love her so much, and she is pure love and happiness in a ball of fluff. I’m sorry but responses will be delayed!

A story in two photos…
#BlockedByVinay was a hashtag badge of honor for integrity in academy medicine on the old #MedTwitter

Vinay Prasad, who consistently spreads misinformation and is basically an internet troll, is now going to oversee a key FDA center regulating vaccines and gene therapies. I’m one of many who was blocked online by Vinay because he didn’t like having his lies challenged.

Really insightful and inspiring talk today by @britshmit.bsky.social, sponsored by Cornell PRIDE. As both a Cornell alumnus and a Harvard faculty member, it was great to see this work highlighted to our communities. While there is chaos all around us right now, there are also glimmers of hope. 🏳️‍🌈

Congratulations to Trent Crick on his presentation, "Exploring the Intersectionality of Mental Health Outcomes for LGBTQ+ Young Adults with Bleeding Disorders." Thank you for asking me to mentor you on this much-needed project.

And the final question… for $1,000,000, take a look at this mushroom and tell us whether it is safe to eat.

We can and should do better! Let’s end menstruation stigma and period poverty! Take note of what @shematologist.medsky.social outlines below this video. #Men4Menstruation #HeForShe #PeriodPoverty 🩸

Connecting with fellow advocates Dallas Ducar @dallasducar.bsky.social from Fenway Health, Dr. Brittany Charlton @britshmit.bsky.social from the Harvard Chan School of Public Health, and Massachusetts State Senator Julian Cyr @juliancyr.bsky.social further fueled our passion for this vital cause.

Hearing from incredible leaders like Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey @govmaurahealey.bsky.social and @hrc.org President Kelley Robinson @kelleyjrobinson.bsky.social was truly inspiring. Their dedication and commitment to equality resonated deeply.

Thrilled to have attended the 2025 @hrc.org New England Dinner to stand in solidarity with our regional LGBTQ+ community. Especially grateful to share this evening with my husband, Dr. Jorge Alvarez, and our dear friends and colleagues, Drs. Scott Hadland @drscotthadland.bsky.social and Jason Vassy.

OMG I had to transfer airports in Tokyo once but it was because my connection was cancelled and JAL rebooked me via Haneda… after I landed in Narita. At least I got to see Tokyo Disneyland from the bus 🤣

In spite of all the bad news around us today, I felt empowered by a meeting with amazing colleagues to help plan how the bleeding disorders community will continue its scientific, clinical, and advocacy work. #rarediseaseday #hemophilia #VWD @shematologist.medsky.social
