The American Heart Association mourns the passing of the legendary cardiologist Eugene Braunwald, M.D., widely recognized as one of the most influential figures in the history of cardiovascular medicine. Over seven decades, his work reshaped the understanding and treatment of heart disease, leading many to call him the father of modern cardiology.
Braunwald was a lifelong contributor to the American Heart Association, helping advance its research and scientific mission, and was honored with some of the Association’s highest honors for his lasting influence on cardiovascular care and research. His influence extended well beyond his own discoveries, as generations of Association‑supported investigators, clinicians and academic leaders were trained by Braunwald or guided by the clinical trial standards and mentorship models he helped establish.

An autonomous @rivr_tech delivery robot being tested in Pittsburgh. Snow, ice, hills and stairs everywhere: it was genuinely feeling dangerous as a human to go outside at times. Really a great stress test for the robots.

Phil-anthropy = love of humanity. True leaders demonstrate civic virtue and benevolence toward others.
Phil and Penny Knight announced today a record-breaking $2 billion gift to the Oregon Health & Science University’s Knight Cancer Institute to transform the future of cancer care and set a new standard globally.
Thank you to Phil and Penny Knight for their incredible generosity.
ALT White text over a black background; “Give Cancer Hell” An OHSU Knight Cancer Institute logo is placed below.
ALT The top text reads: Cancer is the biggest fight in the history of the world. We will win. It will be hard. We're built for it. We care. Every breath. Of every second. Of every day. Great things come from the most unexpected places. Look around. We're surrounded by heroes. This is not a job. This is our life. Cancer does not discriminate. Neither will we. Bold moves only. Cancer doesn't see us coming. We will outlast, and we will outwit it. This fight is and always will be personal. "GIVE CANCER HELL." in bold at the bottom.

A lot of working class folks will lose their health insurance
And that’ll lead to more medical debt, people not getting their illnesses treated and unfortunately, some deaths
Policy should help people live long healthy lives
Helping people stay insured is a part of that
