ICYMI: Last weekend at the Fairport Music Festival, Jack Harrison followed his dreams and performed live with his band The Unknown. The Golisano Children's Hospital Miracle Kid went through lengthy treatment for a brain tumor at Golisano and is doing well today. "Seeing Jack Harrison on stage, performing with his friends, is exactly why organizers, volunteers, musicians, and the community support the Fairport Music Festival and Golisano Children’s Hospital," said Fairport Music Fest founder Andy McDermott.

Last Friday, first-year medical students at the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry had the opportunity to experience healthcare through the lens of the Deaf community. Students navigated through a mock healthcare system, called Deaf Strong Hospital, where ASL was the primary language. In keeping with reality, only a small portion of students had access to an interpreter. The annual exercise run by UR CTSI's National Center for Deaf Health Research helps build empathy in the next generation of doctors.

Seeing the excitement and pride from the future physicians and their families at our White Coat Ceremony was inspiring. It was an honor to oversee the ceremony for the first time as Dean of the School of Medicine and Dentistry. To our students, you are just beginning an incredible journey. You will be challenged here, you will grow here, and you will make a difference in the lives of countless patients. Remember, this ceremony underscores the symbolic importance of the white coat as more than just a piece of clothing, but as a reminder of the values and responsibilities of our profession. It engenders trust between the physician and patient, so earn and value that trust throughout your career to promote health and alleviate suffering. Congratulations and best of luck to the Class of 2028! University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry; University of Rochester

Blaine, at just 14 years old, spoke to a crowd of community members and leaders at our recent ribbon cutting for the new Brighter Days Mental Health Urgent Care. His words impacted everyone in the room as he told his story, shared about his time our Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Inpatient unit, and highlighted the importance of accessible mental health care for all ages in our community. Thank you for sharing your story, Blaine!

Please join me in wishing Professor Ruth Lawrence a Happy 100th Birthday! She is a University of Rochester legendary faculty member whose impact in improving maternal/child care worldwide is undeniable. And to think she did this during a time when there were hardly any female academic pediatricians, while at the same time raising her nine children! I am in awe! Happy Birthday, Dr. Lawrence! https://lnkd.in/g8KB33kS

Happy 100th birthday, Dr. Ruth Lawrence! Today, we honor Ruth Lawrence, MD, a pioneering force who redefined medical leadership and disrupted gender barriers in the field of medicine! Prior to UR Medicine and her 70+years of dedicated service in Rochester, Dr. Lawrence was the first woman to be offered an internship at Yale University. Since then, she has been a beacon of hope to women in medicine and a leader in the innovation of patient care. Her groundbreaking research in the fields of Pediatrics, Neonatology, and Breastfeeding and Lactation Medicine, have surely improved patient care around the world. As both a published author and teacher, Dr. Lawrence has shared her expertise with and served as an inspiring role model for healthcare professionals everywhere. Join us in celebrating Dr. Ruth Lawrence and her extraordinary contributions to medicine! 🌟🩺
