Our study with🌟@LeilaMomtaziMar 🌟on HIV PrEP is out! Here, we identified racial and neighborhood disparities in HIV PrEP adherence.
TLDR: 1/2 of patients filled their initial PrEP prescription, yet only a 1/4 remained adherent at 6 months.

the @AAMCtoday could easily put a stop to the research arms race for residency applications by limiting the # of research items just like they did with extracurriculars last year

Testing Whether Cancer Screening Saves Lives via @JAMAInternalMed bit.ly/3suZ2Tl interesting sample size calculation thought experiment. Puts into perspective how many people need to be screened to even possibly save a life. The number is HUGE for individual cancers.
Daughter’s backpack was super heavy. When I went to investigate there were two books stowed away in secret compartment weighing it down.
Jury duty is a perfect time to wrap up #SMDM abstracts!
