I wrote about this new analysis that shows it’s really worth digging into state level data when we think about disparities. Outcomes differ widely by state and by racial groups within states. statnews.com/2024/04/18/hea… via @statnews

"It's doable" is one of the best quotes from my 2023 reporting.

“You cannot have health equity without data equity."@ushamcfarling discusses pitfalls of lumping nearly 25 million people into a single Asian American category. Read more about the harmful blindspots caused by this general classification in @statnews here:bit.ly/46ujuSy

Glad to see some justice on this finally. This has gone on for far too long. Orthopedic surgery needs to do better as a field if this type of behavior is tolerated. dailybreeze.com/2023/11/03/har…

NEW: I’m not sure people fully appreciate how dire the US life expectancy / mortality situation has got. My column: enterprise-sharing.ft.com/redeem/75e5e3d… And some utterly damning charts. 1) at *every* point on the income distribution, Americans live shorter lives than the English.
A truly stellar STAT First Opinion piece on liquid biopsies and the effects of potential false positives: statnews.com/2023/10/29/ctd…

ICYMI last week: An important article about the health disparities that get obscured when we lump 25 million Americans into one AAPI category - from @ushamcfarling in @statnews. “It’s even worse than Hispanic. At least Hispanics share a language.”
Blending together the highly diverse pool of Asian Americans in widely used metrics obscures vast differences in their health. trib.al/IlyxeBp
"Invisible in the data: Broad ‘Asian American’ category obscures health disparities" by @ushamcfarling @statnews. See also @JPHMPDirect article led by @naoko_muramatsu on making the invisible visible and battling structural racism against Asians in U.S. journals.lww.com/jphmp/fulltext…
People with Asian ancestry are almost always grouped into a single racial category in U.S. public health. “You cannot have health equity without data equity,” said @NinezPonce. trib.al/RabIHzV
“You cannot have health equity without data equity."@ushamcfarling discusses pitfalls of lumping nearly 25 million people into a single Asian American category. Read more about the harmful blindspots caused by this general classification in @statnews here:bit.ly/46ujuSy
Excellent work by @ushamcfarling who looked into health data equity, and how classifying people coming from 50 + countries (which are home of 60% of the world population) as one Asian American group is detrimental for health understanding: statnews.com/2023/11/21/asi…

There are growing signs an unprecedented exodus of life scientists from academia is slowing the pace of basic research -- untested hypotheses, unused grant dollars & projects languishing in limbo. My special report for @statnews statnews.com/2023/11/15/lif…
Joke’s on you, Boston, because I always have my own exclusive coffee spot in the STAT offices.

On #NationalFirstGenDay, I'm thinking about the happiest day of my life -- the day I got into @USC Becoming the 1st in my family to attend college meant that I could become a doctor & support my family who sacrificed it all to give me a shot. Thank you @USC for believing in me!

This week, Miami-Dade County will take a final vote on a measure to protect outdoor workers from heat. It’s one of many efforts on all levels of gov’t. But even as the science on heat’s dangers becomes clear, the laws face political opposition. NEW: statnews.com/2023/11/06/hea…

I never share photos of me without makeup, especially when my face and belly are round from prednisone. I hide my bruising under long sleeves and pants. This is me, though, and I am working to love the body I live in and accept that I have no control over my immune system. My…
Let’s be nice about our bodies. QT this with a pic of you looking however (you don’t need to be 🔥, you are just right, just as you are) My body, after 3 surgeries, 6 blood transfusions, 6 iron infusions, stage 4 #endometriosis, and #fibroids carried me up this mountain.
