I am deeply saddened by the passing of Dr Brian Durie, a visionary leader, pioneering scientist, and dear friend to me and the @iStopMM team.
He worked with us from the very beginning and coauthored all iStopMM papers.
His legacy will continue to inspire us.

There’s no right answer, so tell us yours!
Great to see @iStopMM group at it again - patients, nurses, APPs, and physicians can fill out easy survey (written in patient-friendly language) about what % #MMsm risk and pt scenarios might prompt BMBx.
