This is by far the most common vaccine I strongly recommend in ID adult clinical practice. As ID doctors, we see some truly severe cases of zoster, with post-zoster sequelae that may last months or even rarely be permanent. @CIDJournal doi.org/10.1093/cid/ciaf329

When a traumatic brain injury (#TBI) sidelined Caden Taffe's football aspirations last year, the 17-year-old discovered he had another talent to hone on the track. #UCSDHealth’s concussion clinic played an integral role in Taffe’s return to sport. 📰 🔽 today.ucsd.edu/story/unexpec…

This was not easy for me to write, but if it helps one person, then it's all worth it.
We love you, Katie.

Oldie but a goodie. If only I could have a @BreneBrown voice in my head leading into a Rumble...
There is no mastery without feedback. But it’s hard.
This checklist has really helped me over the years.
My mantra for receiving feedback: Be brave. Listen. You can take what’s helpful and leave the rest.
My mantra for giving feedback: Clear is kind. Unclear is unkind.

current 10-year ASCVD risk prediction models may underestimate risk in young people
30y risk more predictive even of short-term (4y) events
41% of young adults had low 10y risk but high lifetime predicted risk
important to think long-term

A non-medical friend recently asked me to describe clinic. I told her to imagine you have 20 meetings in a day, half of them new clients with urgent needs. Each requires your best self. You are late for at least 10 of them. You must prepare a report and deliverables for each one.

Yep... we can run and not expect an increased risk of OA. If you have OA, you can continue running.
Please don't tell runners to stop running.
Very,very,very ,very few ppl will ever get near the limits of what the knee can endure.

The Triton Family is saddened by the loss of Athletics Board Member Mark Bracker. He was an avid supporter of UC San Diego Athletics and worked hard behind-the-scenes to help in our transition to Division I.
Our thoughts are with his loved ones.
Great new resource! 👀 👏🏼
