Physician-scientist Diego R. Hijano discusses his article "How humor builds trust in pediatric oncology." Diego shares how personal loss and his own cultural and linguistic experiences shaped his approach to care, teaching him that laughter can be a bridge in even the darkest hospital rooms. Through stories of playful exchanges with children, language slips, and inside jokes with families, he explains how humor softens fear, restores humanity, and strengthens the patient-physician relationship. Drawing inspiration from Danny Thomas and the legacy of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, Diego emphasizes that presence, not perfection, is what patients remember most. Listeners will gain insight into how humor can serve as both a clinical tool and a personal anchor, reminding physicians that healing extends beyond medicine.
