I gave a talk about why healthcare needs a trip to Mars for Boehringer Ingelheim at their global HQ and got questions here on LinkedIn whether I'd release the talk. We created a summary of the storyline and the major messages in this short video. Here is why healthcare needs a trip to Mars. I hope you will like it. #themedicalfuturist #digitalhealth #future #healthcare #medicine #technology #health #healthy #video #keynote #speakerlife #mars #healthcareonmars …see more

US stock markets joined virtually all others around the world in closing down, including losses of around 1.5% for the big major indices. The week played out as expected: volatile (2 days higher/3 lower) around a downward trend (just over 2% lower). Oil had a strong week, up 13%. #markets #interestrates #stocks #economy #stockmarket #gold #investmentmanagement #equities #interestrates #stocks #stockmarket #bonds #economy #equities #forex #trading #banks #oil #stockmarkets #us #investment #finance …see more

It seems my paper on why there is no precision medicine without artificial intelligence is getting some good traction from other papers. I argue that the cast amount of data digital health technologies generate cannot be analyzed simply by human beings but by human beings augmented by artificial intelligence.

Fresh off a $200M funding round, Affirm’s CEO Max Levchin talks to me about what's next for the company:   http://bit.ly/2AdoInB

Right now it's tough for almost everyone. We’re all facing very real fears about our health and the health of our loved ones, and fears about the economy and our livelihoods. But statistically, it appears the coronavirus pandemic is affecting women more than men — for all of the same old reasons. Sigh. #gender #KellyeMedia #coronavirus #work #equalpay #inclusion …see more

We all have that one person in our career who took a chance on us. That mentor who saw the potential in us even when we didn't. Close the Gap Foundation kicked off our second annual STEM Mentorship program this weekend. Spark 2020 is about closing the opportunity and network gap for low-income and underserved communities. #plusonepledge I'm incredibly proud of our high school scholars who attended, engaged, and spent their entire Sunday afternoon with us. And all the mentors and keynote speaker Tiffany Pham who showed up for our students. #mentorship What does mentorship mean to you in one word? Comment below. Thank a mentor by tagging them.

Do you know what the number one source of workplace distraction is? It isn’t cell phones. It isn’t the email inbox. It isn’t social media. Surveys reveal that the biggest source of distraction for American workers is actually our co-workers! The people we work with can be a constant distraction, even without meaning to be! This is especially prevalent when it comes to open offices. This is why every copy of my book Indistractable comes with a piece of cardstock that you can pull out, fold into thirds, and put on your computer monitor. For as long as you need, you can signal to your coworkers that you’re busy. If you don’t plan the time for focused work, it’s not going to happen. And not only do we need to protect that time, we need to defend it. #Traction #Productivity #Indistractable …see more

I just saw a quote by Annette Breaux that beautifully states what all teachers, professors and student life staff know or can benefit from knowing: "Remember, everyone in the classroom has a story that leads to misbehavior or defiance. 9 times out of 10, the story behind the behavior won't make you angry.  It will break your heart."   I'd change the word "classroom" to the word "campus"  or "school" --- and that expands the quote meaningfully and importantly.  I was recently on a panel where I suggested that we offer support to new minority faculty.  Another panelist said: why is that needed?  They can do it on their own.  I said: not everyone can or should be forced to pull themselves up by their own bootstraps.  What is wrong with helping others, even without their asking?  Let's be clear and candid: We all need help in one way or another. And, many of the rules of the game of the academy are not so clear and are not spelled out as another panelist pointed out so aptly.   And, if we can enable success, does it really matter as educators how we do it?  As long as success is there (real success), is there some reason we think those who don't ask for or get help are better?  Moral superiority for being able to work alone?  Please. …see more

A couple of months ago, @arkrepublic contributing writer Charles Moss pitched the idea of exploring manhood and masculinity in a series called, The Man Project. It has been a revelatory and honest exploration of what it's like to be a man in the era of #metoo . Here is one of his posts where he speaks with Mark Pagan, a former b-boy living in NYC who started the podcast, "Other Men Need Help."

Edna Adan Ismail describes herself as a #midwife and a #nurse first and foremost. When she says she was one of the first fully-licensed #midwives on the African continent back in the 1950's, you have to believe her. Because she is a legend in #globalhealth and #reproductivejustice circles, and she will be featured in my Jan. 2019 National Geographic feature on #maternalmortality . From the moment I captured my first image of Madame Edna, and noticed the picture of her with U.S. President Lyndon B. Johnson just over her left shoulder, I knew I was witnessing living history. From her childhood in 1940's Hargeisa to her education in #Djibouti to midwifery training in #London , Madame Edna seemed destined to return to #Somalilland to advocate for women and girls. She has been a Minister of Family Welfare and a Foreign Minister. She has been a World Health Organization Representative. After leaving WHO, Madame Edna decided to build a hospital for pregnant women in a region with one of the highest maternal mortality rates in the world. Meeting Madame Edna changed my life. It taught me you're never too old to need #rolemodels , and that #passion and #purpose have no expiration date. #Africa #midwivesmatter #midwivessavelives #maternalhealth #reproductivehealth #childbirth …see more
