Huge day for @USSoccer. We will be in Times Square as we unveil our 2026 FIFA World Cup campaign at an exclusive fan event and break down the action with some special guests, including our new mascot.
Make sure to tune in on Fox and Telemundo for the live World Cup Draw and the national campaign launch. Big moments on the Road To ’26, excited to share them with all of you.

An absolutely brilliant @NYTmag article on the mental health of airline pilots.
My friend and colleague @DrHelenOuyang expertly weaves together the stories, the stigma, and the stakes for getting this all right.

Safety in aviation has been on everyone's mind lately.
I reported on how the rules around pilots’ mental health are meant to protect us — and why they might actually be putting us all at greater risk.

UNIQLO is excited to expand its partnership with @StreetSoccerUSA in 2024.
Starting with a pilot program in NYC, we provided hands-on career development for 20 amazing young athletes. From resume reviews and interview prep to styling sessions and professional photos!

During @ManUtd's 2023 pre-season tour of the States we made a donation to @StreetSoccerUSA ⚽️ 🇺🇸
Fantastic to see @MUFCNewYorkReds continuing that support with money raised from the raffling of this signed #MUFC shirt. Fantastic work, guys 👏
Congratulations to New York Red Luke on winning the signed @ManUtd shirt raffle yesterday at @SmithfieldNYC!
Also a huge thank you to everyone who participated and bought tickets - you’ve all donated to a great cause in @StreetSoccerUSA and should be proud of yourselves! 🙏🏼👏🏼

One of the best to ever do it.
@TimHowardGK made his mark on @MLS, the @premierleague, and even on the world stage. Now, he has been inducted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame. #NSHOF24

I wrote this week's @nytmag cover story about ECPR - a new way of treating cardiac arrest. Currently cardiac arrest has dismal survival rates. ECPR could dramatically change that. But can health care systems implement this complex intervention? Should they?nytimes.com/2024/03/27/magaz…

Nights like tonight make seeing things like this that much more special. Thanks to everyone that’s supported and helped along the way. Played for some wonderful clubs/fans and #EveryoneN supporters are up there with the best. Great win.
History for the captain 👏
With his appearance and start tonight, @DaxMcCarty11 took sole possession of fifth place all-time in MLS history for matches played by an outfield player, and sole possession of sixth all-time in starts for an outfield player.

For this week's @NYTmag cover story, I explore childhood obesity — a complex condition that's increasing. Doctors have new treatments for it. Critics warn that these remedies — and even diagnosing it — are more dangerous than obesity itself. nytimes.com/2023/10/31/magaz…

Violence against health workers in the E.R. and hospitals continues to rise, a disturbing trend that will eventually affect everyone. I wrote about this for @nytopinion @nytimes nytimes.com/2023/10/24/opini…

"The obstacles impeding Leff and other hospital-at-home advocates in the United States were bound up with America’s labyrinthine health care system and particular medical culture." #longreads @DrHelenOuyang @nytimes nytimes.com/2023/01/26/magaz…

The pandemic changed how we work, how we learn... how we live. It's also transforming how we're hospitalized. I wrote a feature story in this week's @NYTmag about the hospital-at-home movement. nytimes.com/2023/01/26/magaz…

“Can VR Help Ease Chronic Pain?” is the Sunday Read on @nytimes The Daily. Wonderfully narrated by @zwooman w short intro by me. Thanks especially to @johnmwoo @JackDIsidoro & audio team @NYTmag nytimes.com/2022/05/22/podca…

The #metaverse promises/threatens to upend health care. I wanted to see if virtual reality could treat chronic pain, one of the most challenging conditions for modern medicine.
This is what I found and what lies ahead. In this week's @NYTmag #VR
