1/2 Terrific collaboration with Dr. Vitaliy Rayz from @LifeAtPurdue. Computational modeling of platelet activation in CAS and FMD. First author @SumanGuntupalli from @CCLRI Image and revisions courtesy of PhD student @edelyn_park. Next generation stroke risk stratification.
“It’s indisputable that this particular genotype influences the effectiveness of clopidogrel," said lead author Lari Cavallari, PharmD, University of Florida.

2/2 Nice h/t to an Irish-born, Scottish trained physician who pioneered transvenous heart biopsy during his time at Stanford.🇮🇪🏴 https://t.co/Ror8qRiyyu
1/2 One of the most innovative presentations I’ve seen in a while today by @KiranKhush1 from @Stanford. Donor derived cell free DNA circulating in the blood as an alternative to endomyocardial biopsy to evaluate cardiac transplant rejection. https://t.co/RsMyMx1c6F #MedEd
A little history on megakaryocytes by @BRamkhelawonLab before the 🎤 drop: MKs can be reprogrammed in AAA. Different kind of platelet. Also the 🫁 (where MKs also are) talks to the aorta. #VascularDoscovery2026

Wonderful vascular medicine capstone grand rounds by @Dr_AravindDB today. Thrombosis vs. bleeding risk w/ anrithrombotic therapy after Watchman device placement. Need to consider bleeding 🩸 risk comorbid conditions (📉 platelets) vs thrombosis comorbid conditions (PAD) #MedEd

Failure isn’t a detour in science — it is THE path.
And talking about it openly makes us stronger and helps our students. 👩🏼🎓👨🏼🎓
I didn’t get funded in a truly weird NIH category this cycle. Many scientists feel that the changing rules have become harder to interpret.

To all of my scientific wounded warriors this weekend 🥊:
Your grit is your superpower. The fight in the dog will always outlast the dog in the fight.
Keep showing up.
Keep collaborating.
Keep choosing kindness.
Keep perspective.
