This was a pleasant surprise! In the midst of troubling times for research, I was recognized for my impact on HIV research over the years by the Texas Developmental-Center for AIDS Research!

This is such an interesting question- as someone who studies #intellectualhumility you are right. Past misinformation on many things has been proven to be true through #science π§ͺ

4/4 π§΅ Itβs heartbreaking that while we have made incredible strides, including U=U, long acting PrEP, and breastfeeding with HIV, that we still have so much work to do to #endthehivepidemic

I recently learned that one of my favorite people, an amazing young man, who was an advocate and researcher, who had been living with HIV passed away this year. He was a good friend, and a sweet and kind person. 3/4π§΅

Vespers: A nursing origin story set in the dawn of the HIV... : AIDS
An abstract is unavailable.
When I was in college my favorite artist #KeithHaring died of AIDS related diseases and shortly after, a friend of mine asked me to go with him to get his HIV test results. So, in the summer of 1990 I moved across the country to care for children impacted by HIV and AIDS. #worldAIDSday

New on TheBodyPro: The U.S. Latinx HIV crisis is all too easy for many to overlook, but critical for clinicians to acknowledge and address. At ANAC 2024, Vincent Guilamo-Ramos, Ph.D., outlined the stakes -- and what care providers can do about it. www.thebodypro.com/hiv/anac-202... #HIVsky #IDsky

Pertussis βΒ a disease commonly referred to as whooping cough β is spreading quickly, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warns. The U.S. has seen five times more cases in 2024 than we diβ¦

A grim thread

I once cared for a baby who died from pertussis, a tragedy Iβll never forget. The family was pro-vaccine, but the baby was too young for their first dose, and Tdap during pregnancy wasnβt routine. Vaccine decisions arenβt just personalβthey profoundly impact the most vulnerable among us.

Posting this because these images are making the rounds again. Plus, someone told me it was the best thing I ever did, and I was flattered.
p.s. only possible since I've been directly involved with several papers that meet these exact criteria, so mea culpa

Goodreads is owned by Jeff Bezos. A better alternative is StoryGraph, a Black woman-owned platform. And before yβall start, you can transfer all your Goodreads data to Storygraph so you literally have no excuse.
