School nurses are truly some of the most dedicated, compassionate, and resourceful professionals I know. Every day they are caring for students, supporting families, managing crises, and serving as a critical link between health and education in their communities.

Over the years, many of these incredible nurses have become much more than partners in our School-Based Telehealth program—they’ve become friends. It was such a gift to reconnect, share stories, celebrate successes, and simply enjoy being together.

Thank you to the Mississippi School Nurse Association for bringing us all together and for the important work you do to support school nurses across our state.

To every school nurse in Mississippi: thank you for showing up for students every single day. You make a difference that reaches far beyond the walls of your schools!

We had an incredible time at the SEARCH Society 2026 conference this week!

Dr. Chandra had the privilege of moderating the AI/ML/DL in Telehealth track, one of the most forward-looking sessions at the conference.

Four remarkable presentations that showed just how fast this space is moving by Dr. Neal Sikka, Dr. Hiral Soni, Shayen Bhatia, and Sandy Hatoum.

From synthetic video to voice AI to motion capture, the intersection of machine learning and telehealth is no longer theoretical. It’s here, it’s clinical, and it’s changing patient care.

Our team is honored to be part of this community of researchers and practitioners.
