Check out this paper investigating outcomes in postmenopausal women post-liver transplant. Happy to have been apart of this team!
Really thrilled to have been able to publish this project on liver transplants in post menopausal women, who are more likely than men to have NASH, greater weight gain, and more non-cardiac complications sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Today’s Interclerkship day of lectures focused on bias in medicine. I found this thread to be an important expansion of some of the topics that were discussed today
American medicine has been built upon the abuse of black people with no oversight. I'll revisit a few cases of how Black people were abused in the field of medicine.  A THREAD(s)!
