@middletennwx I'm sorry but people keep saying Friday evening and the old person in me thinks that's 6pm and the normal person in me thinks 10-11pm. What time should you hunker down on Friday?
Excited to join the PSTP Pathways Webinar Week tonight at 7 PM ET! We’re focusing on Pediatrics tonight! Featuring Dr. Lisa Satlin (Mount Sinai), Dr. Daniel Moore (@armyofdan, Vanderbilt), and Dr. Ann Chahroudi (@AnnChahroudi, Emory). #PSTP
@AmiBhattMD Ami, please stop writing junk clickbait posts like these. Taking immune suppressive drugs isn't life as normal. Risks are significant. This approach will not fully mitigate complications risks. The science is interesting, some of it is good, it is very incomplete. Do better.
Excited to run this endeavor with colleagues @reboundhigh and @Tracerider. Critical advances in the approach to #T1D brought to the clinic by @T1D_TrialNet and @SanofiUS. I encourage people to screen for type 1 diabetes and reach out to us for questions about this new treatment.
Led by @armyofdan, our diabetes immune therapy clinic helps identify presymptomatic, at-risk individuals for Type 1 diabetes intervention. He recently co-authored a study that offers updated screening recommendations for #T1D.

The type 1 diabetes research community recently lost a brilliant, driven, and thoughtful researcher and friend in Helen Thomas. She touched my career in many ways and impacted me in a profound way. Thoughts are with her family.

I'll be on a panel focused on training the next generation of physician-scientists (May 3). Hope to see you there! @NPSCW_PedsPSTPs@PASMeeting@UCSFNeo@UCSFPediatrics

With the Olympics coming up this summer, #NashvilleTN should know that Olympic fencing is flourishing in #MiddleTN. Hopeful that someone like @emwest22 might pick up a story. The next two weekends have tournaments @nashelitefc including qualifier for US National Championships!
@MAndersonUCSF Do you happen to have any imaging that might reveal pancreas size in the kiddos? I am always on lookout for more unusual diabetes diagnoses and impact on pancreas size. The dx at 1d of age is wild.
Advocate for your pediatricians and for the nation's best and brightest to improve lifelong health by focusing on children. After all, all disease begin in childhood so we should make sure that our best efforts start there too.
Did u know your child’s doctor is paid 25% less than adult docs with the same yrs of training and debt? The way we fund care in this country is backwards, leading to a dwindling pool of med grads choosing pediatrics @bvincibmc and I propose a fix here: https://t.co/wMnHK7DALs
Wow, that is difficult to even comprehend. I started on my track to diabetes research there on a Jdrf summer research program summer 1994. Would never imagine that the physical space would cease to exist.
Congratulations to my twitterless colleague Daria Esterházy & team @UChicagoImmuno on identifying the lymph node sharing in the gastrointestinal system that shapes pancreatic immunity. Checkout their creative cover page @ImmunityCP inspired by the #Chicago metro rail map.
A conserved acetylation-dependent mechanistic insight for understanding the link between fatty acids and insulin resistance, which may provide a potential therapeutic avenue to intervene in the development of #T2D https://t.co/r35jJOmfJT
As our understanding of the adaptive immune repertoire increases, we will need efficient ways to model the pathogenic potential of TCRs and phenotypes. Happy to share this new work by @leeanadenise1 and colleagues editing primary human CD8+ T cells.
