We Are All Jane Doe

So what are the books that I got sent by MIT this week? So the first one is The Exquisite Machine: The New Science of the Heart by Sian E.

Harding, and it says on the back, "Your heart is a miracle in motion, a marvel of construction unsurpassed by any human-made creation.

It beats 100,000 times every day.

If you were to live to 100, that would be more than three billion beats across your lifespan.

Despite decades of effort in labs all over the world, we have not yet been able to replicate the heart's perfect engineering.

But as Sian Harding shows us in The Exquisite Machine, new scientific developments are opening up the mysteries of the heart, and this explosion of new science, ultra-fast imaging, gene editing, stem cells, artificial intelligence, and advanced microscopy has crucial real-world consequences for health and wellbeing." Sian E.

Harding is a recognized authority in cardiac science and is a professor of cardiac pharmacology in the National Heart and Lung Institute at Imperial College London, where she led the Division of Cardiovascular Sciences and the BHF Center for Cardiac Regeneration.

She was special advisor to the House of Commons' Science and Technology Select Committee on Regenerative Medicine, and she has been awarded the Imperial College Medal and a Lifetime Achievement Award from the European Society of Cardiology.

HFA.

Sorry, I don't know why I was crying while I was reading that.

I just thought that was really cool.

Gosh.

But, um, so that's the first one I got.

I do kind of feel a bit ridiculous this y- [laughs] this far into my year of medicine that I'm reading about the heart just now.

If that's not even the most ridiculous part about how I paced this, I saved hematology for last.

[laughs] It's like that's the...

I, I couldn't have planned worse.

I should have started with blood and the heart at the beginning of the year, but c'est la vie.

It's already happened, so getting into the heart now, and I'm finally understanding more nuance.

It's just great.

I mean, I love learning, and so it's fine.

I...

This was...

I'm not in school.

I can kind of just pace things however I want, and I'll learn it when I learn it, so it's totally all right.
