I photographed this view in 2008, twice in 2009, 2010, and 2016 to document the changes happening in the Middle East, now “Eager Park,” neighborhood just north of John’s Hopkins Hospital. Figured I’d keep the tradition going since it’s different every time. #bmoreblockbyblock #middleeast #eagerpark #ebdi #eastbaltimore #baltimore #redevelopment #johnshopkins #neighborhood #changes https://www.instagram.com/p/COX22J9Joo2/?igshid=1mykzs6drmuc0

I made this little animated card exactly 3 years ago for my then Fiancée to celebrate her PHD graduation. Since then, we got married and everyone now knows what a Doctor of Epidemiology is... • • • #card #animatedcard #phd #doctor #graduation #graduationcard #greetingcard #animation #animated #gif #animatedgif #disney #disneyanimation #johnshopkins #epidemiology #drawings #draw #art #artoninstagram #video #movie #lol #love #funny #throwback #color #paint #traditionalanimation #videooftheday #movies (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB_LUo7Di0D/?igshid=dmuo72d3s4zh

From before I trimmed my beard! Also got the news yesterday: seven months from today I will be having stage one of phalloplasty! This has been a necessity for me for as long as I can remember, and has been my goal since I started transitioning five and a half years ago. Here’s to finishing electrolysis and counting the days down till I head to Baltimore!! #phalloplasty #phalloplastyjourney #transgender #ftm #johnshopkins #jhcth #sevenmonthstogo #fouryears #baltimorebound https://www.instagram.com/p/B6CSsrLpg05pnl_HGV4FClfAS8LwbfrQufVvmA0/?igshid=k0qezk5syql

Vivien Thomas, African-American surgical technician who developed the procedures used to treat blue baby syndrome in the 1940s. Thomas was also offered the position of Chief of Surgery at his alma mater, Johns Hopkins in 1941. #blackdoctor #surgeon #medicine #johnshopkins #positiveblackimages #inspiration #motivation #strength #education #blackhistory #blackpower #vivienthomas #bluebabysyndrome https://www.instagram.com/p/Bti0CAbBrCG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14q4ytqpfr92x

Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is giving back to his alma mater in a very big way. In what is being hailed as the largest donation to ever be given to a school in the US, Bloomberg's donation will allow Johns Hopkins University to remain need-blind, which will allow the school to accept applicants based on ability and potential rather than financial status. Read more about the donation at the link here.

In 1812 Johns Hopkins left the family tobacco plantation to work in his uncle’s Baltimore store and soon began amassing a fortune through wise investments. Seeing the toll the Civil War took on his city, as well as repeated yellow fever and cholera epidemics, Hopkins’ 1870 will funded a hospital and university among many other bequests... In 1951 Henrietta Lacks’ biopsy during cancer treatment at Johns Hopkins Hospital was, unbeknown to her, used as the source of the HeLa cell line, the first “immortalized cell line” and one of the most important in medical research, but raising concerns about patient privacy and rights. In 2016, at Biddle and Harford, Baltimore artist Gaia painted Lacks and Hopkins together in an arrangement of flowers and images of HeLa cells, for Yvonne Hardy-Phillips as part of “You Are Here”: her Curatorial Practice thesis for Maryland Institute College of Art.  @gaiastreetart​  @micacuratorial @youarehere_twb
