I shared my journey from aspiring artist to clinical trials program manager — proof that there’s no one “right” path into research. Clinical research needs all kinds of minds: creative, analytical, compassionate, and curious. #FutureResearchers #PublicHealth #STEMCareers 🧪

Grateful for the chance to speak with students in the Clinical Research Summer Observation Program today at #CWRU! Their curiosity and energy were a reminder of why mentoring future researchers matters. The next generation is already asking the right questions. 🧪#ClinicalResearch #STEMEducation

MEANWHILE… measles outbreaks are escalating in Ohio and other states, largely due to declining vaccination rates.

Sad to see about NIH-related layoffs impacting colleagues at the CDC and FDA. These agencies are critical to public health, science, and innovation — we deserve better. Via @nytimes.com 🧪 #publichealth #CDC #medsky

Faculty members should always assume there are first-generation students in their classrooms, because there almost always are.

First-generation students have unique needs, which can be amplified when they enter graduate programmes. A Comment article in Nature Reviews Psychology argues that faculty members need to be aware of the needs of this population and how to support them. https://go.nature.com/3FkQDs1 #Academicsky 🧪

The Times identified more than 30 frozen studies that had volunteers already in the care of researchers, including trials of: malaria treatment in children under age 5 in Mozambique treatment for cholera in Bangladesh a screen-and-treat method for cervical cancer in Malawi tuberculosis treatment for children and teenagers in Peru and South Africa nutritional support for children in Ethiopia early-childhood-development interventions in Cambodia ways to support pregnant and breastfeeding women to reduce malnutrition in Jordan an mRNA vaccine technology for H.I.V. in South Africa

Ohio leads the U.S. in cases of bird flu. Here's what to know. Commercial flocks confirmed with bird flu continue to rise in Ohio. Currently, there more than 8.7 million birds infected by this outbreak.

Earlier today I was walking and listening to the Sound of Ideas on #IdeastreamPublicMedia. It was a great segment on the H5N1 virus. I rushed home to take notes! The epidemiologist in me can’t resist. 🧪 @doctoramye.bsky.social and @jennifernuzzo.bsky.social - thank you for sharing your knowledge! 🧠

I wish I was joking.

The YRBSS provides crucial youth health data and is often used as a training data set for future public health scientists in data analysis, coding, and interpretation. Losing public datasets erases health issues, limits research, and hinders future scientific development. 🧪

Federal funding = investment in science that serves the public, not corporate interests. Check out this thread for some amazing work by scientists all over the country! 🧪

Thank you for sharing!

Done! Thanks for doing what you do! Please feel free to share! 🧪

Each time science takes a backseat to profits or politics, #PublicHealth suffers. The #FDA’s job is to use scientific evidence to protect us from unsafe food, drugs, and devices. Science-driven oversight is crucial. #TrustScience #FDAHistory 🧪 🧫

In 2004, the 1st HPV vaccine (Gardasil) is approved to prevent cancer.

During the COVID-19 Pandemic, Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) fast-tracks vaccines & treatments. Real-time clinical trial data sharing accelerates pandemic response.
