What's the biggest misconception regarding men and boys and eating disorders? Hear @UCSFChildrens pediatrician @jasonmnagata discuss this and more on the @Slate Well, Now podcast.
@UCSFPediatrics @UCSF
1/ For decades, eating disorder research has often left out a core demographic: cisgender boys and those assigned male at birth.
Today on Well, Now, hosts @mayafellerrd & @kavitapmd talk with Dr. Jason Nagata, Associate Professor of Pediatrics.

"This is what it looks like when health care 'does better' by people with disabilities," says @UCSFHospitals Dr. Clarissa Kripke, in this fantastic piece on @NPRHealth. "Health care is about helping people to participate fully in their lives." tinyurl.com/sbbyenud @UCSF

Pioneering @UCSFHealth Dr. Clarissa Kripke is featured in this @tradeoffspod piece for her work caring for patients w/ developmental disabilities in their own homes, so they can live more freely and fully, as the #Olmstead ruling of 25 yrs ago intended.
@UCSF @ADANational
In our latest episode, we explore what it will take for the nation to get closer to the full promise of Olmstead — and one doctor's work to forge a better path.
