See: Is …

I asked the group above to be in my National Physicians Week, National Doctors Day photo, because I believe doctors exist to help human beings produce health, which helps them and us, change the world, or as I like to say, help the 🌎 learn to ❤️ better. This week, I also learned that fellow …

Health and sustainability are inextricably linked. Sick humans on a healthy planet are not more sustainable than healthy humans on a sick planet. I applaud WeWork’s (@WeWork) commitment to the environment. Climate Change is a threat to human health. At the same time that meat is not being catered for corporate events, there are copious …
I’ve discovered that what I do has a name – “Narrative Art” (thank you George Lucas) Every photo tells a story, I’ve been asked to tell this one (just this once…) There doesn’t seem to be an enormous mea culpa from the scientific community that we got it wrongFiona Godlee, Editor in Chief, The BMJ, …

In addition to being the nation’s capital, Washington, DC also has the most visible and numerous (by proportion) LGBTQ communities in the United States. It shows. Visibility is not an afterthought here, it’s the default. In the last century, they used to say this about another State; in this century it’s As DC Goes So …
