5 Years Since COVID-19 Hit: How the Pandemic Affected CU Clinicians CU Department of Medicine clinicians reflect on the immediate effects and years-long aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic.

This look back at how our campus medical community responded to the COVID-19 crisis as it erupted five years ago is gripping and important work by my talented colleague, @taylerleighs.bsky.social. Congratulations to her!

The word ADVOCACY is written in black on a blurred background of a hallway. The American Physiological Society logo, name and black and purple variegated swirls also appear.

APS and 50+ science orgs signed a letter urging Congress to protect U.S. research. Funding freezes, political interference and staff cuts threaten innovation. Congress must act to safeguard science and our global leadership. Read more: ow.ly/AIkk50VbXOh #ScienceMatters #FundScience 🧪

Living a Long Life With HIV: CU Research and Care Strive for Successful Aging When HIV first emerged in the 1980s, there were no treatments and no cure. Today, dying with HIV has mostly turned into living a long life with HIV.

For decades, HIV was seen as a death sentence. Today, thanks to research & medical advances, people are not just living longer—they’re redefining what it means to age with HIV. Experts & advocates are shaping the future of HIV care. 🌟💙 @cudivofid.bsky.social
