'Give a man a fish, you will feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish & you will feed him for a lifetime' 🐟 The same applies to #Reconstructivesurgery #BFIRST train surgeons in poor countries to an independent level so they can train their own #Sustainable #ThursdayThoughts

Fun to co-chair with @JoanLipa this morning an almost all female panel on Hereditary Breast Cancer. London Breast Meeting is the best! #LDN_BM #breastcancer #rintasyöpä #hus_uutisoi @drzoewinters

Particularly in light of the second textured gluteal implant ALCL published this month (First USC, now Brazil case) disease appears to not necessarily be anatomic specific – at Houston, TX
Very good back-and-forth in the journal from two expert groups discussing a case of ALCL in a patient with gluteal implants: Piubelli et al: academic.oup.com/asj/advance… Gould et al: academic.oup.com/asj/advance… #plasticsurgery #ALCL #patientsafety #pathology

It was an incredible honor to celebrate the #Apollo50th anniversary of the historic lunar landing with my crewmates on @Space_Station yesterday. Their passion and drive for space exploration paved the way for the engineering marvel to which I call home.

“I changed what I could, and what I couldn’t, I endured.” Dorothy Vaughan was the first African-American female supervisor of the NACA, which later became @NASA. Remember the women who made the #Apollo50th anniversary possible: go.nasa.gov/32dBnoZ

Her calculations proved critical to the success of not only our country’s first orbit in space, but to the first steps on the Moon. Today, the @NASAIVV Facility in Fairmont, WV is being renamed after Katherine Johnson in her honor. Learn more & celebrate: go.nasa.gov/324kvAX

On June 18, 1983, a young physicist from California boarded the space shuttle & launched into history. On that date, Sally Ride became the 1st American woman in space. Happy birthday, Sally Ride! Today you would have been 68 years old. Learn & celebrate: go.nasa.gov/2Qlv1y5
