Michigan unveils influenza epidemic resource

I found this to be such an interesting story. The University of Michigan has put together a detailed resource that covers one of the most devastating epidemics of the modern era, and it's not designed just for the medical or academic communities. Learn more about The American Influenza Epidemic of 1918-1919: A Digital Encyclopedia in a piece that I wrote for Examiner.com.    

University of Michigan hospitals once again earn national honors

I realized that I had not posted in this space a recent article that I wrote for Examiner.com about the fact that U-M hospitals have once again earned national honors, so I wanted to further spotlight this important story now.

U.S. News & World Report again rates C.S. Mott one of best children's hospitals

Michigan NeuroSport focuses on concussions

I wrote this article tonight for Examiner.com, and the website to which I link contains plenty of information on a topic that is starting to get lots more attention, especially in the NFL, college football, and hockey.

University of Michigan Press Author Series - Annie Lehmann

 

Earlier this month I wrote about Michigan-based author and parent Annie Lubliner Lehmann's The Accidental Teacher: Life Lessons from My Silent Son, the first Open Text Project book from the University of Michigan Press. Lehmann will participate in a U-M Press Author Series event tomorrow (Tuesday) night, April 27, from 5:30-7 p.m. in the Gallery/Room 100 of the Harlan Hatcher Graduate Library. Not only will she discuss The Accidental Teacher, which centers on raising a severely autistic son, Lehmann also will answer questions from the audience and sign copies of the book, which will be available for purchase after her presentation.

It's easy to find the library, situated in the heart of the school's Central Campus. Learn more about the author and her deeply personal memoir, and I hope you can attend the event.

The Accidental Teacher

 

I just published a piece to my Examiner.com page about The Accidental Teacher: Life Lessons from My Silent Son, the first-ever Open Text Project book from the University of Michigan Press. It's from author Annie Lubliner Lehmann, who lives in Michigan, and who chronicles the journey she and her family have had while learning to help her son Jonah, who was born with severe autism.

The Open Text Project is quite an interesting concept, and I encourage readers to participate in the discussion surrounding this heartfelt memoir.

Big Ten Blood Challenge

As many of you know, I write about the University of Michigan for the Detroit edition of Examiner.com. I posted a piece there today about the Big Ten Blood Challenge, which is a terrific collaboration.
