This week we began the incremental resumption of research activities (in careful compliance with Massachusetts state guidelines) on the Medical Campus.
My continued thanks to BUMC Facilities, Environmental Health & Safety and the Building Coordinators for their continued work to provide a safe environment for all members of our community.

Masks and Physical Distancing
As the Medical Campus works to reopen safely, we rely on all members of the BUSM community to comply with the state’s requirements for physical distancing and wearing a mask.
Please wear a mask at all times
while on the Medical Campus and in the hospital. We understand that wearing a mask at all times is uncomfortable, but compliance is critical. COVID-19 is a serious illness, and vigilance with physical distancing and appropriate use of PPE are critical to the safety of our patients, our colleagues and ourselves. Please remind each other to comply.

Only a limited number of ANCC accredited organizations meet the rigorous criteria to achieve distinction.
This recognition highlights BUSM’s longstanding and continued commitment to providing innovative, relevant and evidence-based inter-professional education to improve patient outcomes. Congratulations!

5 p.m. | Virtual Event
In honor of our colleague, Lance Martin, Diversity & Inclusion and Student Affairs invite you to "Summer Soulstice," a soulful open mic night at
5 p.m. on June 19, 2020.
Lance was planning this event just before he passed, and we have every intention of seeing it through.
Participants are encouraged to share their talents in singing, dancing, poetry, comedy, magic, musical instruments, art, and more. This event is BYOR (Bring Your Own Refreshments) so if food is one of your passions, we also look forward to seeing culinary dishes of your proud heritage.
Sign up here
to participate as a performer; we'll circulate Zoom information for general attendees closer to the date.
