Liz Goldberg, MD, ScM

Thank you, Liz! I’m so grateful for this incredible organization that has supported my research and connected me with an amazing network of successful researchers like you. I hope to give back and support its mission.

Congratulations to @lauraburke20.bsky.social!

EMF was one of the first to fund my research & I’m looking forward to seeing them support many more young investigators in emergency medicine!

Thank you for sharing your experiences. It’s important for Americans to be aware of the impact the recent NIH changes have on cancer research and the future of biomedical research.

Trump Is Shutting Down the War On Cancer

I am not a political pawn. I am a living, breathing human being who has dedicated her life to a scientific problem that I believe matters for human health. The article below tells our story; I hope you will read it and share it www.nytimes.com/2025/09/14/m...

Jeremy, doesn’t this also make it more difficult for ESIs to get their first R01s? It would seem this will further increase the median age at first R01 funding and create a huge gap in scientists in a few years who had to pivot to other pursuits when their labs couldn’t get that first pivotal R01.

Trump Is Shutting Down the War On Cancer

An incredible first hand account of the chaos that has ensued in NIH funded research labs and its far reaching impact on the future of cancer research.

Can telehealth help unravel the knotty problem of fall prevention in older adults? Prevening falls is critical to reducing injuries among older adults, and telehealth tools may help providers reach more people in rural areas.

Proud to share our teams' work on making fall prevention more accessible to emergency department patients who present at smaller, resource-limited EDs.

Go you! I’m sure your Mom is so grateful that you fixed it for her. And it takes a very patient person to help someone with technology who isn’t a digital native.

Was at #AAIC25 this week talking to patient advocacy organizations for #AlzheimersDisease.

Many don’t know about the deep crisis we are facing in #NIH funding. We need to continue to talk about this & importantly enlist our patients/future patients.

Thx @jeremymberg.bsky.social for this graph.

Es ist interessant zu hören dass Notfallmediziner in Deutschland auch daran denken wie wir die Shiftarbeit besser machen könnten. Wir haben noch viel zu erfahren / forschen damit man länger und besser diese Arbeit machen kann!

I received this vaccine in my third trimester. My baby is now a healthy three year old. And I didn't get severe COVID while pregnant. Win win.

Let's stop taking away options from women to receive evidence-based treatments to keep them healthy in pregnancy.

More here on evidence-based ways to prevent dementia. @thelancet.com www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

There are ways to reduce #dementia risk:
🦻get hearing checked
🚶‍♂️exercise
👭stay social

But beware of #pseudoscience. A family member was sold “light therapy for the brain.”

If it cured dementia, it’d be the first.

Physicians aren’t hiding cures—we’re trying to protect from harm.

Yet Again, AI > AI + Clinician As long as all your patients come in with their pre-formatted vignettes.

Yet again – in a non-clinical surrogate setting – clinicians aided by AI outperformed clinicians using conventional resources.

But AI, by itself, led the way.

Emergency Department Visits for Medication-Related Events With vs Without Pharmacist Intervention: The URGEIM Randomized Clinical Trial - PubMed ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03725046.

New Paper Alert!

I'm thrilled that we now have pharmacists embedded in emergency care in many EDs.

Here, evidence that a #pharmacist led intervention reduced costs and recurrence of medication-related ED visits compared to usual ED care.

My quote of the day

At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us.

Evaluation of a text message + pedometer intervention to increase steps after emergency department discharge: a pilot study - PubMed Safe Steps appears feasible, safe, and may be effective for promoting activity after ED discharge.

Can we increase step counts after the ED visit in older sedentary Americans with a text message based intervention & pedometer?

Yes! 🙌 And no fall events or other safety events identified.

Congrats Dr. Brian Suffoletto
