The Trump administration’s escalating attacks on science, research, public health, and now academic freedom itself are appalling. They also create opportunities for my colleagues and me to speak out, especially given the relatively milquetoast messaging from some major medical associations and other expert bodies. (I won’t name names for now.) Today, I’m sharing three examples of those opportunities from the past week.

Tomorrow (Friday, May 30) at 2 p.m. ET, I’ll be joined in the Doctor’s Lounge byER physician and former Survivor contestant Dr. Kishan Patel, over on Substack Live. (Yes, the CBS reality TV show Survivor.) Here’s the link to join us and a calendar invite. Okay, so, I realize that the world is on fire and this all might seem a little lighthearted. But in 2020, I really did not take care of myself, as I wrote in The New York Times. At times, 2025 has felt equally intense.

Question for you! Colonoscopies find some cancers which can often be cured by removal *during that procedure*. So, why do you think that screening colonoscopies (that is: done to uncover asymptomatic cases) are not performed on 100-year-olds?
The US Preventive Services Task Force: •men ages 55-69 PSA testing for prostate cancer=individual choice. •men 70+, advises *against; harms of over-testing/over-diagnosis prevail over benefits. So before we say Biden’s cancer was “missed”, let’s know the evidence on screening https://t.co/oKHqxKSeFN
