🔥"Data are sexy!"

This is a statement that is both grammatically AND factually accurate.

We need more data & evidence to help us make the right policy based decisions! JOIN me in this #GivingTuesday challenge to help @academyhealth.bsky.social make data sexier!

AcademyHealth Giving Tuesday collage showing various leaders from across healthcare over the years participating in Health Datapalooza. "Data are sexy!" This is a statement that is both grammatically and factually accurate. It's also a personalized button that I wore at a #HealthDatapalooza conference years ago, spurring instant conversations and creating magical connections at the intersection of public, private and policy. THAT's what @Academyhealth does. Over many years, and through data-based discussions, evidence-based research, and empathy-based actions - @AcademyHealth has been a dynamic force behind bringing health services research, reliable insights and actionable frameworks to help spur transformative decisions and impact the lives of our patients and communities everywhere. The activities, insights and communities fostered by AcademyHealth have been a constant go-to destination for so many amazing leaders throughout the years. Just look at this amazing collage here! And with your support today, they will continue their nonpartisan work for years to come helping policy drive progress for populations everywhere! I am competing against Aaron E. Carroll, CEO of AcademyHealth, to see who can raise the most money for AcademyHealth by #GivingTuesday (12/2 - which is just around the corner). As Board Chair of AcademyHealth, I am determined to win this challenge for patients everywhere - but this is where I need YOUR help! As we take a brief pause to celebrate all that we are grateful for this #Thanksgiving, please JOIN ME in as part of #TeamRasu making a donation of any amount TODAY. https://academyhealth.org/rasushrestha2025 Let's do this! And thank you in advance for your consideration.
