Excited to share the 1st of my profile series on health tech's "gatekeepers" – the people who decide what promising ideas actually get deployed in health. First is @ycombinator health care partner @SurbhiSarnaSF: statnews.com/2023/08/01/yco…
Lovely to see the Jon Norris’ (formerly of SVB) inaugural HSBC Venture Healthcare Report covering the first half of 2023. business.us.hsbc.com/en/campaigns/i…
Also deeply disappointed in this piece. I spent the weekend making sure that 10-person companies could make payroll despite their SVB deposits evaporating, ensuring EAs and technicians could get paid. This rescue wasn't about rich ppl! SVB-backed companies employed 1.4 M folks

Driving on hwy 101 today, I saw a large white Tesla driving aggressively up the rear of a small car … basically being a car Karen. Large BMWs used to be “that person” … Tesla people, don’t do it!
What if the JPM healthcare conference turns out to be a super spreader event? I have heard of 3 people who attended stuff and tested positive on Wed or Th last week

It’s clear to me that @PeteButtigieg is the single most effective communicator the Dems have. He understands policy, politics & is a good human. Well worth the quick watch

Tough crowd. @Venrock led @athenahealth first VC round (was an angel&MD round prior); led @includedhealth A round (was a seed prior); & was sole VC seeding (and still largest investor) in each of @DevotedHealth, @AledadeACO, and @LyraHealth... fortune.com/2022/09/23/top…
Having just spent another $500 on cardiology for this 17 yo creature, I am stunned by the cost of having an old animal (whom I adore). I haven’t looked into pet insurance but it might be worth it if the dog is still young! Deaf, CHF, collapsed trachea, elevated liver values, …
I have to admit that, while I love so much about living in California, the whole kids go back to school in mid August thing sucks … it’s hard that our summer is over already while my east coast friends/family have that summer mood until Labor Day
Zoom norm question: thoughts on the behavior of joining a zoom by video but never turning on your own video (they can us but we can't see them)? I have joined telephonically (when driving) and have turned off my video intermittently but the one-way-video notion is odd to me...🙃

Geeky humor
With the private market downturn, I've seen an explosion of SPAM fundraising emails/calls - people asking me to invest in crypto, SaaS, fintech, etc. Its not subtle that I'm a devoted healthcare investor! My hunch: CEOs/bankers are going for volume of outreaches in this market
