Bit of an experiment for those of you not deep in the weeds of immigration. I’ve got a question for you.

Imagine a woman from India with an MA degree. She has a job lined up willing to sponsor her for an immigrant visa. How long do you think it will take to get the visa?

Reply below. No googling!

20 years ago my group published a paper that identified a target (a kinase) in pancreatic cancer that drove cell proliferation and chemotherapy resistance. We worked with a medicinal chemist who designed a small molecule inhibitor (SMI) to this kinase. In 2018, this SMI went into the clinic. 1/2

Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield Won’t Pay for the Complete Duration of Anesthesia for Patients’ Surgical Procedures In an unprecedented move, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield plans representing Connecticut, New York and Missouri have unilaterally declared it will no longer pay for anesthesia care if the surgery or procedure goes beyond an arbitrary time limit, regardless of how long the surgical procedure takes. The American Society of Anesthesiologists calls on Anthem to reverse this proposal immediately.

As a surgeon, I have some thoughts on this. 🧡

Nearly every kid we saw in the ICU with COVID, once the vaccine was available, were kids who hadn’t gotten vaccinated. The vaccine was the difference between life and death, or at best a normal life and a devastated one.

Please support bookshops.

Independent bookshops.

They are so wonderful. Yes you pay a little more.

But I think of it as paying for the experience.

The experience of browsing.

And that oh-so-important bookshop smell. πŸ––
Fu** big corporations.
