When classrooms and clinical rotations shut down in March 2020, medical school faculty, staff, and students craved connection, comfort, and guidance. Out of that need, the Kern Institute created a weekly newsletter, the Transformational Times, to gather and amplify the voices of those rushing to the front lines and of those who supported them. The nascent community shared its reactions over the summer to racial injustice, in the fall to the COVID-19 surges and the return to school, and in the winter and spring to the continued societal discord and slow adjustment to the new normal.

Minhas mãos cobriram meu rosto e eu apoiei minhas costas nuas na parede fria de azulejos, deixando o desconforto gelado me abraçar ao me lembrar que ainda estava viva e fui escorregando até sentar no chão do banheiro.

Hull, parte dal racconto della discesa nel buio per arrivare a spiegare quello che definisce "il dono oscuro": uno stato in cui la mente recide ogni legame sensoriale con la vita precedente e, per sopravvivere, inventa un nuovo linguaggio.
