Excited for this one! On the cover of @BloodJournal this week, our paper "Indoles derived from intestinal microbiota act via type I interferon signaling to limit graft-versus-host disease" https://t.co/Qwb6Dy2JWA #GVHD

NEWS: Cochrane says lead author of a mask review misrepresented its findings, apologizes for summary statement that was imprecise and says they will update it.

They say their review did NOT find masks don't work.

Plus, I examine the actual evidence.

Biologists show that #indoles, found in certain dietary plants and beneficial bacteria, can regulate mechanisms for #HealthyAging, reproductive success, and genome integrity across generations. https://t.co/4uP0NWbfUc

Georgia — it's important to remember that as of today, Brian Kemp’s 6-week abortion ban is not in effect. If you have an appointment, keep it and call your provider.

The following orgs can support you if you need reproductive care & resources or if you want to get in the fight.

@erikfoto @jjoannid @IntelPointAlert Correct. N Druid Hills HS is right next to research and medical buildings.

[spectre @spectre_info]

Incident has occured at Druid Hills High School, which sits across from the university. Currently no students injured, but police do have at least one student at the high school in custody.

Senator Lana Theis accused me by name of grooming and sexualizing children in an attempt to marginalize me for standing up against her marginalizing the LGBTQ community...in a fundraising email, for herself.

Hate wins when people like me stand by and let it happen. I won't.
