Drs. @wjdeardorff and @ADHaimo published an editorial entitled "From bedside-to-model: Designing clinical prediction rules for implementation" in @AGSJournal Read more: agsjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jg… .
Drs. @marlon_aliberti, Ken Covinsky (@geri_doc), and @seijlee presented at the Congress of Geriatrics and Gerontology of Sao Paolo, Brazil. The sessions focused on opportunities for international collaboration, ePrognosis and the central role of function in #geriatrics.
Congratulations Dr. Rebecca Sudore (@prepareforcare) for being an awardee for the Spring 2024 Academic Senate Distinction In Mentoring Award for faculty at the rank of Full Professor! Ceremony will be held on Mon, 4/1 from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at Parnassus Campus, room N-225.
People put the "us" in #USDeN! Featured member: @wjdeardorff Read his USDeN profile: deprescribingresearch.org/james-deardorf… We're looking forward to gathering with our network for #USDeN24 in Boston on 5/15--just 🔟 weeks away; more info here: deprescribingresearch.org/network-activi… #Deprescribing #Research
Today we celebrate eight years, around 2 million listens, and 300 podcasts with an Ask Me Anything (AMA) podcast in the style of “Hot Ones”. What could go wrong by answering listener questions while eating chicken wings loaded with extremely hot sauces? geripal.org/geripal-300th-…
One of the most fun GeriPal episodes we’ve recorded. Hot ones style! Around the 6th hot sauce we hit new levels of panic and alertness. Works for eliciting straight from the heart answers to listener questions. youtu.be/XL_cMyON-8k?si…
@wjdeardorff I'm honored that I finally have a journal article that has been tweeted and highlighted upon by @wjdeardorff (I was hoping that every word would be highlighted but I also recognize my limitations as an author...)
Thank you @CLOSLER for helping me share a bit about a patient and her most beloved companion.
"Sometimes we never get the chance to tell a patient what we admire about them. After my patient died, I realized I’d been inspired by the inner strength she showed by caring for her dog despite health and life challenges."— @lingshengli @UCSFGeriatrics tinyurl.com/4vh7rmcd
Interesting geriatric career path through the world of prognostic modeling by @wjdeardorff.

@wendymac says, "Drawing is looking, & looking is loving." @UCSFGeriatrics showed each other a little love this week with a 1-min blind contour drawing! #DrawTogether #ThisisGeriatrics
Knowing that contact days are not created equal, and that better understanding patient preferences is key, it's clear that we can do more to honor patient/family time/burden when delivering care. E.g., by ⬇️unnecessary care, coordinating services, shifting care to home settings.
Congrats Dr. Krista Harrison (@klharrisonPhD) for receiving her first R01 from the NIA for a project titled, "Improving hospice care for racial and ethnic minoritized older adults with Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias (ADRD)." Learn more: medicine.ucsf.edu/news/krista-ha…
Look at the huge chunk that post-acute care makes up! And yet, so much of what happens there remains "in the dark" re: medical and health services research. #geriatrics
We talk a lot about overall health spending, but less about the profit pools. Super interesting lens from @McKinsey here. They peg the overall U.S. healthcare profit pool at ~$580B in 2022, with 40-45% of that flowing to providers and ~10% to payers. h/t @SebastianCaliri
4% of deaths in Canada are due to Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID). Well, on today’s podcast we try to answer the question why MAID has taken off in Canada and whether it should be of concern. geripal.org/what-is-going-…
