It is a wrap. Best 6 years I could have ever dreamt of (3 years categorical pediatrics @nationwidekids and @mghfc + 3 years pediatric neurology @harvardneuromds). Made the most wonderful friends, met the most outstanding teachers, mentors, patients and families. Thank you ❤️🙏.
Congratulations to the class of 2024! Best wishes as you step into this new chapter of your lives. Cheers to a bright and successful future ahead! 🧠✨

Fascinating study. This is a much-needed approach to improve quality of life in people living with #ALS #MND. Do you know of plans to expand this ACT treatment? What are next steps?
