Sanitation worker Nazir Nalls was emptying a garbage can into the back of his truck in Milwaukee in April when it suddenly slipped off. Inside was a dog, painfully thin but still alive. His supervisor named the dog PJ and adopted him. wapo.st/4gkj3Tn

Dear PG lovers, Yang & Schmidt provide a novel perspective on the alveolar and endothelial glycocalyces. These structures play a key role in critical illnesses such as sepsis and acute respiratory distress syndrome. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Congratulations to my great friend Wolfgang Kuebler, who received the Comroe Award and Lectureship from the American Physiological Society. Wolfgang’s impact on endothelial physiology cannot be overstated. I am grateful for his friendship, teaching, and advice over many years.

The samples in this study survived a nuclear disaster, global pandemic, and mass shooting (ask me offline) to provide some solid pilot data for future planned work. Glad these events are behind us, and kudos to @SarahKatsandres & team for persisting. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

What an honor to have Dr. Robert Brown, a leader and legend in our division, share his reflections on his career for Grand Rounds. Dr. Brown shared many stories and lessons and left us with a final challenge: to keep MGH a great community with providers who feel part of a team.
Lessons: The road is bumpy; failure is a step in the process of succeeding. Accept when things are not perfect and don't let that get in the way. The best experiment is the one most likely to disprove the hypothesis. Celebrate when you find you have been wrong about something: it is an opportunity to learn.

Lessons: DDX should always include the possibility that what everyone has been thinking is wrong. Brain-body interactions are profound. Be inclusive, tolerant, enjoy/celebrate differences amongst us. Don't rush to judgement: gather the facts. Don't tolerate abuse.
