Had a great time at my book panel at @healthjournalism.org, discussing my findings from Coverage Denied with @usha.bsky.social and a great audience. If you’re interested in reading my analysis of US health insurance barriers and how they burden patients and their physicians: a.co/d/07W4SeVu

Dan is my husband, as well as a phenomenal science reporter and editor with experience at not just SciAm but NatGeo, USAT, BuzzFeed, and Science News, too (and has a background in aerospace engineering to boot). You should definitely hire him. I don't know anyone who hustles more to get a story.

I also want to address the use of the word "clean," which implies that grants that use "misaligned" words like "minority," "gender," "latinx," "equity," "lived experience," or "social determinants of health" are dirty. This kind of language matters. Grants that address these issues are not dirty.
