Nisa Khan published the book Blinding LED Headlights: The Biggest Blunder of Modern Science in December, 2024.?In this book are groundbreaking statements about the spatial properties of LED light.?Specifically, LED light does not disperse following an inverse square law, and LED light has a non-uniform Lambertian spatial shape.?Organizations such as the AMA and IES have not acknowledged these special properties of LED light. The Soft Lights Foundation respectfully requests that the AMA update H-135.932 or adopt a new policy that addresses these spatial properties of LED light and the photobiological, neurological, psychological, and hormonal impacts of LED light on human health. https://lnkd.in/gjdrFD68

Thanks to the ABIM Foundation for facilitating an excellent Webinar today on “building trust and deepening relationships in academia.” Fair and balanced discussions were guided by Dawn Hawkins Johnson, MSN, RN, Dr Maria Belalcazar, and?Dr Reginald Tucker-Seeley. Participants explored the value of trust building and authentic inclusivity…and how these can reshape the landscape of academic medicine. Discussions covered academic navigation, unmasking of the hidden curriculum, the need for multi-expert and eclectic mentoring, institution of intentional faculty advancement programs, coaching, and networking. We also delved into concerns related to academic isolation and career stagnation. Surveys reveal that high rates of attrition in academia are fueled by perceptions of negative self worth…by feelings that one’s opinion or contribution is not valued or important… …being present, but invisible. I encourage academics to avail themselves of these remarkable Webinars that provide a platform for exploration of the many challenges faced within academia and their intersection with those in the broader society…and potential solutions. #discoursematters #abimfoundation

So excited to participate in this discussion!
