Happy and proud that this study is published @JExpMed. We discovered a novel NR2F1 agonist that induces cancer cell dormancy and prevents outgrowth of disseminated tumor cells. Press release: https://t.co/fEtDYOgtgo; Original study: https://t.co/viVvSxMA0r

A new therapeutic approach prevents the growth of metastatic tumors in mice by forcing cancer cells into a dormant state in which they are unable to proliferate.

@AshleyGWinter Besides the point, but I hate it when textbooks explain the countercurrent multiplier without including the vasa recta!!

@amyfaithho There are so many things that are wrong in this tweet, and the ones that followed, and all the justifications.

@goddek @AlastairMcA30 Genuine question, how do you have a PhD in biotechnology and not know the difference between DNA and RNA?

@JAguirreGhiso @EinsteinMed Congrats Julio!

Okay - "Pfizergate" is still being perpetuated by the anti-vaccine crowd who are 1) Pretending transmission studies never occurred and 2) claiming vaccine requirements were not backed by science. But let us look at the ACTUAL timeline: 🧵

(1/4) Did you know that there are bacteria in human tumors? Well, this is old news now 😊. Our new study, featured on the cover of @CellCellPress, shows that human tumors contain fungi as well and that tumor fungi matter! (Cover by @munafomarzia) https://t.co/gQA3olwSpO

@SaltClear @WFKARS Highly underrated comment

[Ed Yong is not here @edyong209]

🚨I wrote about “brain fog”—one of the most common & disabling symptoms of long COVID (and many other pre-pandemic conditions), and one of the most misunderstood.

Here’s what brain fog actually is, and what it’s like to live with it. 1/

@GarrettForMI That coffee order sounds very specific! As if you’ve ordered it many, many times.

@WFKARS @dalepartridge And that’s not even close to being his worst tweet!
