Grateful for the chance to share our research with Kansas legislators — and thrilled our proposal won a $500 grant at our annual research symposium @KHSU_KansasCOM ! So lucky to have a brilliant friend & co-author like @christina_baum3 by my side on this journey 💙📚💪

Did you know? Saint Lidwina of Schiedam, from 14th century Netherlands, was one of the first documented cases of Multiple Sclerosis. 🧠

Looking forward to learning more about MS & the new therapies becoming available while I do my research. #LearningEveryDay

Reading about the mind-body connection in disease & stress management, as highlighted in this article, inspires me as an osteopathic med student. It's a reminder & motivator of why I pursue endometriosis research. To one day ease the pain of these patients. #EndoResearch

[Paul Yong @DrPaulYong]

New paper from @pelvicpainendo: patients with #endometriosis had worsening mental health during #covid pandemic, which was predicted by more systemic symptoms related to the nervous system being present before the pandemic. Published in @TheJournal_Pain:

A very interesting read and topic about the interplay of inflammation and its effect on the brain & MS 🧠

Love to see and learn about the constant innovations in the world of neurology and MS!

Entering the final month of my 1st year of med school during #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth reminds me of the vital importance of self-care and wellness, especially when feeling burnt out. Don't give up on your journey; prioritize your wellness along the way. #WellnessReminder 😌
