Hello! Please see updates from our classmates:

Johnny LaZebnik was thanked in the credits of Heated Rivalry. That is his only important update from the last 10 years.

Rachel Hobert founded Huml Health last year. Mental health and addiction treatment runs on what patients say, and people in crisis often cannot or will not say how they are doing. Huml fixes that. They put wearable devices on patients, read the signals their bodies send—sleep, heart rate, patterns of strain—and turn them into objective data for the care team. That data flags risk days before someone leaves treatment against medical advice, follows the patient home after discharge through the most dangerous weeks of recovery, and gives programs the evidence to prove their care works. The result is treatment guided by what is actually happening in a patient’s body, not just what they can put into words. In Huml’s first year: there was more than 6,000 patients worth of data; two of Arkansas’s largest health systems signed on; and it achieved a spot on Inc. Magazine’s Female Founders list. They are based in Bentonville. If it touches your world, find Rachel at huml.health.

I am over halfway done with my ophthalmology residency and excited to be performing intra-ocular surgery this year. I took a short break from work to visit Sarah Mi and Taran Carr in San Diego. Melissa Leung drove down from LA, and we all caught a Padres game and explored the zoo!

I hope everyone is enjoying the (finally) cooler weather.

Stay well,

Mariam
