Here’s one of my best of the day.

Check out the Baily's Beads effect, drops of sunlight forming around the moon as sunlight streams over the craters and valleys of the lunar surface.

A photo of the total solar eclipse shows beads of light beginning to appear on the right side of the photo as the sun begins to return to view. Various solar flares can be viewed around the dark ring.

An inspiring way to open the final full day of #AAMC26 with Disney Legend Martha Blanding, who shared her remarkable journey of breaking barriers, achieving historic firsts during her 50-year career at Disney, and the importance of resilience and believing in yourself.

Disney Legend Martha Blanding speaks at the closing plenary of AAMC Learn Serve Lead 2026 in Anaheim, wearing a bright orange outfit and Minnie Mouse ears. Large screens show her speaking and a photo from her Disney career. A quote overlaid on the audience photo reads: “My career has been in pixie dust, not penicillin. But nonetheless, we both strive to make dreams come true, don’t we?” #AAMC26.

Lots of food for thought from one of this morning’s #AAMC26 plenary speakers, Dr. Joel Bervell, who shared powerful insights on the blind spots in medicine and the importance of recognizing what we sometimes fail to see. @joelbervell

Photo of Dr. Joel Bervell, science communicator and physician, speaking during a plenary session at AAMC Learn Serve Lead 2026. The graphic features his quote: “Medicine’s most dangerous blind spots aren’t always the things that we don’t know. The things we know and still fail to see. Sometimes they’re hidden in a device. Sometimes they’re hidden by who isn’t in the room.” #AAMC26

An uplifting hour spent with social media novices, intermediate users and experts to discuss the importance of communication skills at #AAMC26!

A huge thanks to our @AAMCtoday comms team and Vladimir Oge, @MeredithKHerman @jamesamolnar @DavidJSkorton for creating this space for dialogue on risks, benefits and the landscape of social media in medicine!
