In my recent letter published in @ScienceMagazine, I discuss how political repression, specifically the developments in #Iran, doesn't stop at borders. Universities need to treat this as governance, not politics.

Presented at #ASCO26:
Among patients with previously treated metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, the RAS(ON) inhibitor daraxonrasib led to significantly longer overall survival and progression-free survival than chemotherapy. Full phase 3 RASolute 302 trial results: https://t.co/xwLWBZYRzq

Science is more than papers, experiments, and conferences. It’s failure, persistence, mentorship, uncertainty, curiosity… and occasionally complete chaos.
Alongside the fun AI videos, we’ll also have candid real conversations about the highs, lows, and everything in between.
For the @American_Heart watermelon challenge, mic drowned in the rain, crushed the whole watermelon. Recorded zero audio. So here’s the fully dubbed version. Women are less likely to survive a cardiac event — and heart research ignored female biology for decades. Do the challenge, donate and raise awareness for heart health in women!

راحت؟ راحت اینه که تو کشورت بمونی، کنار خانوادهات، زبانت، دوستات، امنیت روانیات و داشتن آزادی. نه اینکه تو ۲۰ سالگی چمدونتو ببندی، بری یه کشور غریب، از صفر زندگی بسازی، همزمان درس بخونی، کار کنی، مالیات بدی، تحقیر مهاجرتو تحمل کنی، دلتنگی بکشی و هر روز برای بقا بجنگی.
ما از خوشی نرفتیم. خیلیا رفتن چون سیستمی که باید نگهشون میداشت، پسشون زد. ولی با همه اینا هنوز داریم میجنگیم، یاد میگیریم، پیشرفت میکنیم… چون آیندهی ایرانو آدمای ناامید نمیسازن، آدمایی میسازن که زیر فشار هم کم نیاوردن.
Humbled and honored to have received 1st place at @UKYMedicine 17th Annual Trainee Research Day. Thank you for your trust in my science.
Excited to present my work in our Dean's Distinguished Lecture Series and share it with such outstanding colleagues & their impressive research.
What an incredible few days at #VascularDiscovery26. Amazing science, inspiring discussions, and a reminder of how strong & collaborative the vascular biology community truly is.
A perfect way to close the meeting with the outstanding talk by @kiranmusunuru and what he reminded us in science: “You have to be the critic of your own work.”
Safe travels to everyone heading home. Looking forward to seeing you all again next year in Boston!

Exciting talk by @Joseph_C_Wu at #VascularDiscovery26 highlighting the future of drug discovery through “New Approach Methodologies” (NAMs).
Human iPSC models, organoids, organ-on-chip systems, and AI-driven platforms are rapidly transforming how we study disease and screen therapeutics with major implications for cardiovascular, neurologic, pulmonary, and metabolic diseases.

Kicking off an exciting start to #VascularDiscovery26 this morning in Bellevue!
From AI-driven drug discovery by @Joseph_C_Wu and emerging cardiovascular research trends to a keynote from Dr. Peter Libby on inflammation in atherosclerosis.
Fantastic line up to start the day.
@AHAScience
Excited to attend #VRIC26! Meetings like these are incredibly important for basic scientists, they connect mechanistic biology with real clinical vascular disease challenges. Translational science moves faster when clinicians and bench scientists are in the same room.

Today, May 12, we celebrate the birthday of Maryam Mirzakhani (1977–2017) - the first woman and first Iranian to win the Fields Medal.
Her groundbreaking work on Riemann surfaces and moduli spaces continues to inspire mathematicians worldwide.
May 12 is now International Women in Mathematics Day.
