P staff (Harkin,
May 28, 2014 - Gave the John E. Enders Lecture at Boston Children's Hospital/Harvard
Medical School. Great audience, SRO. Extremely well-received. Spent entire day
meeting with faculty and students. They are so young, I feel like some historic figure to
them. Some were not even born yet when the AIDS epidemic was recognized in 1981. I
spoke on "Ending the HIV/AIDS Pandemic: From Scientific Advances to Public health
Implementation". Went up the night before and had dinner with Jenny in the North End.
She is doing great. Just finished the first year of her 6 year Ph.D program at Boston
College in Clinical Psychology. Had tough year following her bicycle accident that
resulted in a severe concussion. Recovery had been slow, but she is much improved now
with some residual headaches.
May 30 - June 1, 2014 - Went to Indianapolis to watch Ali row for Stanford Varsity 1
boat in the NCAA Women's crew Championship Tournament. Went with Chris and
Megan and met Jenny coming from Boston at the Indianapolis Airport. Stanford and Ali
have been amazing this year. Stanford was not expected to get to NCAA tournament, yet
they won the "Big Row" against arch-rival Cal-Berkeley. Then they won the PAC-12
Tournament and now they are in NCAA. Ali was selected as the Scholar-Athlete of the
Year in the PAC-12 for Women's Crew!! This is huge since she was first among all
women crew members in the PAC-12. She had the highest GPA (4.05) of all athletes in
any sport in the PAC-12. Also, she was chosen for the 3rd year in a row as the first team
Academic All-PAC-12 team. She also was voted as "most inspirational" by her team
mates In the NCAA tournament they won the semi-finals by 4/100ths of a second. Had a
somewhat disappointing Grand Finals Race coming out 6th in the race (started off slow
and could not catch up) and 4th overall for the tournament. Ali was obviously
disappointed, but what a year she had!
June 3, 2014 - Together with Robin Robinson, I briefed Senate HELP staff (Harkin,
Alexander, Burr, etc.) on MERS. Did it is the Dirksen Building.
June 9, 2014 - Partook in CSIS conference on TB at their headquarters at 1616 Rhode
Island Avenue, N.W. Good symposium. Shared panel with my dear friend Eric Goosby
June 12, 2014 - Went to San Francisco to give Grand Rounds at Moffett (invited by
Marcia Glass (Kat Glass's sister). Timed the trip to coincide with Ali's graduation from
Stanford on June 13-15. Great time; extremely well-received by UCSF community.
Visited with Eric Goosby, Jaime Sepulveda and others from UCSF; spent time with
students and fellows.
Chris and Megan flew to SF with me - I went north to UCSF and they went south to Palo
Alto. That evening met in SF for dinner. Great time. Drove back to Palo Alto that
night
June 13-15, 2014 - Magnificent time at Stanford graduation events. Ali received
multiple academic honors in addition to sports honors. Graduated "with distinction" ,
which means summa cum laude. Also, received Engineering Award and inducted into
School of Engineering Honor Society.
