I'm thrilled to see this out!😊 Thank you so much @MicheleLabUM for your mentorship & support. Many thanks as well to Dr. Susan Brooks + @EdgewiseTX for their contributions to this exciting work.

A new paper from @MicheleLabUM postdoc @kdturnerphd in @AJPCellPhys shows short term daily deflazacort has stronger effect than long term treatment on protecting against muscle injury and increasing force production in muscular dystrophy mice. https://t.co/7PZ96pnjkR

@JordanKach @JordanKach And 5X more likely to be incarcerated than ~70% of the rest of the U.S. population.

82% of mass shootings (the #1 cause of death in children 1-17) were conducted by members who make up 70% of this same population...but carry on about what you think you know.

@he37035157 @ufc The entire situation was unprofessional which is the point I'm making -- Beyond that, I'm done. I think I've had my fill on arguing with bots tonight.

@PeterS1065780 @ufc Thanks, obvious bot.

#ProudPostdoc moment! I was recently honored with the Bishr Omary Physiology Outstanding Teaching & Service Award!! ✨️
Many thanks to my mentor @MicheleLabUM , the @UMPhysiology dept, the support of the #NIH IRACDA program and this exceptional community at U of M.

I'm elated to hear of this flourishing partnership between @umichmedicine and @MaterialiseNV ! My husband is the manufacturing & process lead on this project at Materialise and to say I'm a proud wife is an understatement! 😊

A new clinical trial will allow @umichmedicine researchers to study 3D-printed bioresorbable devices aimed at treating children with rare and life-threatening airway condition tracheobronchomalacia.

I couldn't be more proud of Benicio for taking on such a special project in @MicheleLabUM for the SURP program. Best wishes as you wrap up your last year @MIT. Can't wait to see what you do next!! 🔥

[Dan Michele @MicheleLabUM]

Congrats to all of our @UMPhysiology summer undergraduate fellows in our SURF, SURP and M-SURE programs for presenting their research at our annual end-of-summer symposium today, including Benicio Tapia from @MIT who worked with @kdturnerphd in our lab on muscle membrane repair

Other people in science: "So tHis is my cOOL & inTeREStinG TOTALLY quantifiable data"

Me in @MicheleLabUM: "I have no idea what those speckles are"

[Kristen D. Turner @kdturnerphd]

@WallaceUcsf @WallaceUcsf @Xanaxides Thank you so much for the compliment. Love what I do with @MicheleLabUM @UMPhysiology !!

@TimCaseyClyde @Hinkley_JM @kaizouumb One of you mentioned this also being fitting for the cell culture & radioactive rooms. Years ago. :)

Snaggin twitch characteristics from 1 of 5 pc's (and growing) in this spot -- a closet-sized room full of engineering for exps in muscles ~1mm long.

Somewhere in the world, someone is doing this exact thing at this speed in real time (with all 5 pcs helping out). Show yourself!
