What good is data if it’s not transformed into insights that compel policy makers to take action? Happy to be invited by @NASTAD to present #HCV Data for Action, sharing the impact of modeling and means to influence policy makers at #CSTE2019 alongside @AnnetteGaudino. @CDAFound

The world has lost a great man, scientist and philanthropist. He will be dearly missed. My condolences to the family and specially the very dear Dr. Lily Lou.

I am shocked and at a loss for words. John Martin former CEO and Chairman of Gilead passed away from a freaky fall waking home from his office. He was a giant and visionary in antiviral agents and cancer. Our sympathies and prayers go to his family and to our dear Lily Lou.

~200 experts have endorsed the case for simplifying and using absolute targets for viral hepatitis elimination goals. A big thanks to everyone who collaborated on this paper. Where do you stand on this topic? #nohep @CDAFound @Hep_Alliance onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
