Many rejected grant proposals over several years, happy to finally get my first R01. Thanks to @Tulane_Surgery @TulaneMedicine @TraumaTulane and all the mentors that kept supporting me.
Tulane Surgery’s @STaghaviMD has been awarded a $1.2M CDC grant to study how bedside intervention & community support can reduce revictimization after violent injury. “…Ultimately, I hope this work puts trauma surgeons out of business.” Read more: bit.ly/4qPKbMP

There is no standardized treatment catastrophic brain injury (CBI), a fatal injury. Giving dopamine, DDAVP, vasopressin, levothyroxine, or steroids alone: ↑ odds of organ donation after CBI. DDAVP and steroids together have the highest odds of successful donation. @KristenNordham @STaghaviMD ovid.com/jnls/jtrauma/abstra…

20 years later, the return to the Superdome remains one of the most surreal moments. @MichelleBeisner detailed the story of the devastation of Hurricane Katrina and the role the Saints played in its aftermath.

The closest thing the NFL has to college football hatred is Falcons and Saints twitter when both teams are relevent. Y'all need Jesus. My goodness.

NFL officiating is broken. If that’s roughing the passer on Danny Stutsman then just put flags on quarterbacks and call it a day. How do you want a defender to hit a QB throwing the ball ? He can’t stop his momentum once the hit is applied. @wdsu
