Here's a 1-minute video showing--in the words of visualization hero @EdwardTufte--the "compared to what" factor for today's amazing @NASAWebb image. Thanks to the @WWTelescope for making this possible, and @ADavidWeigel. I only wish @NASA and @POTUS had shown the image this way!
And you can zoom on the first one (SMACS 0723) interactively here in @WWTelescope: web.wwtassets.org/specials/2…
There will come a day when your worth is determined by the amount of outdated technology you keep. And when that day arrives, I will be ready.
Exercising my body and my brain this morning with @accpchest PCCM Virtual Fellows Course! 20 miles while learning ventilator dys-synchrony, did my best against other #CHESTTrainees with @crit_caring_MD Kahoot!, now to learn ECMO for cool down @KUPulmCC
With the #snowpocalypse coming tomorrow - if you're in the KC area and need a ride to/from work or get stuck somewhere this weekend, shoot me a message and I'd be happy to help out! I've got a couple 4x4's ready to roll in the snow ☃️

Board certified pulmonologist! So excited to get these results, and so thankful to everyone (especially my wife, my family, and too many mentors/teachers and co-trainees to name) who has supported me through all my training thus far.
Just one more test next year...
@KUPulmCC
Just your typical biennial disassembly of the washing machine for a deep clean.
...what do you mean that's not normal?
Happy #Thanksgiving! I hope everyone had a great holiday. We had a relaxing evening with good friends and great food!
I have to brag a bit, I think my first attempt at smoked #turkey turned out pretty darned good!
Typically I prefer my blood inside my body, but in this case I'll make an exception (despite almost passing out 3/4 the way through). #DoubleRedDonation @KUPulmCC
The change in the public's perception of the pandemic (and trust in medical professionals) has not gone unnoticed 🙁

So interesting comparing human anatomy to animals!
The last few weeks have been tough. For those in need of a light hearted thread, here’s a brand new 3rd #tweetorial in my extremes of #physiology series. What can the animal kingdom teach us about our physiology?
Buckle up for some fun animal pulmonary facts 🫁!

First off, I’m sorry that you got COVID and I’m glad you recovered. I respect that you have the integrity to admit that ivermectin wasn’t able to prevent your illness.
