@mckinnongalloway: Massachusetts General Hospital. When most people hear the word “study,” they think of new medications, surgeries, or treatments. But not every study is trying to help people live longer. Some are trying to help people live better. This week, I had the opportunity to sit down with Dr. Vanessa Merker and learn more about a study she is leading alongside Dr. Scott Plotkin exploring how caption glasses may impact communication and quality of life for deaf individuals. I’m also excited to officially launch Humanizing Healthcare, a new series dedicated to taking people behind the scenes of healthcare innovation, research, and the patient experience in an immersive way to better understand what actually goes on from a patient perspective #fyp #nf #deaf #nf2
