For #endometriosisawarenessmonth we talked about #periodpain and #endometriosis and touch upon the too commonly experienced #medicalgaslighting (hello #genderbiasinmedicine!). Find out more of ScixFem here: https://t.co/idLXRdM4nV

Not sure where to start from - too many interesting cool items here! 🤩

[Science Translational Medicine @ScienceTM]

The new issue of Science Translational Medicine is out now! This special issue features research, Reviews, and Viewpoints that investigate the many dimensions of acute and chronic pain, as well as the latest research frontiers in therapies for pain relief. https://t.co/U3kK4GrSb1

Such a beautiful and true to reality tribute to Mac - ♥️

[Federica La Russa @FedericaLR]

@2Bistheanswer You’re da best!

[Federica La Russa @FedericaLR]

A mentor to so many of us, a boss you could always be honest with even in disagreements, a caring human being who would always make sure happy came before productive. Mac will be greatly missed by the scientific community as much as by his colleagues and friends ♥️

We’re very sad to hear of the death of Professor Stephen McMahon
Steve leaves behind an incredible legacy within pain research. He was also awarded the BNA Prize 2019 for Outstanding Contribution to #Neuroscience.
He’ll be greatly missed.

@matwku It is def the end of an era. Mac was truly a great scientist and supportive mentor! He’ll be missed by current and previous group members…💔

[Federica La Russa @FedericaLR]

So sad to see him stepping down! Such an inspiring Director! He will be missed ♥️

Researchers (@nilosh @TTapmeier et al) have identified a specific gene (NPSR1) that increases risk of suffering pain from #endometriosis with a potential new non-hormonal drug target that may lead to improved therapies https://t.co/B6YakMLFRy @Bayer @wellcometrust

Today is a day to raise awareness on #endometriosis. As a woman, patient, ally and advocate, I’ll always be fighting for a change because we all deserve better than this. #wwendomarch #EndometriosisAwarenessMonth #iam1in10
