@KevinJTraceyMD This makes a lot of sense and thanks for putting it out here. I can barely think of any systems in the body that are more interrelated than these. I come from an immunology background with a touch of neurology and it’d be exciting to put more work on physiology
BIG ANNOUNCEMENT📣: I haven’t been this excited to be part of something new in 15 years… Thrilled to reveal the passion project I’ve been working on for the past year and a half!🙀🥳 It started from my frustration with the depressing effect that the current publishing system has on the well-being of myself, my team, and pretty much every scientist I know (maybe you’ve noticed from my stupid jokes… :) I was exhausted of dealing with the huge delays, reviewers that can be abusive, and how arbitrary it all is. Unfortunately, the most important factors are often WHO your reviewers are and who YOU are... It’s clear we need alternatives or at least ways to improve the situation. So, together with a really special and talented team we worked to develop this idea into “qed” a platform where you can get CONSTRUCTIVE feedback on your own work or CRITICALLY assess other people’s papers. It can be a real difference maker if many of you join us (thousands have tried it already, but today we release a NEW and much stronger version ;) Let’s harness qed to put the power back in the scientists’ hands, to do, to read & to publish science on our own terms. I’m dying for you to TRY IT, and it’s very simple - just drop a paper (the link to the website is in the replies👇) - it’s completely secure, private, and free, and you get results fast. Please show your support, SHARE, tell your friends, and let’s be the revolution 🫵!
I am hiring a PhD student to start my lab at @ucl! Get in touch if you have any questions, the deadline to apply through ELLIS is 31 October. More details🧵
Today I wore my Mentra Live smart glasses for 14 hours.
This is the first camera glasses I've ever worn all day without pain
We're hiring an engineer to own the code on these glasses
Tell your cracked Android friend or DM me!
This is a good example of a startup that can both make a lot of money and also make the world better, because these glasses are transformative for the deaf. So if you want to make a lot of money and make the world better, this would be a good job to apply for.
It’s been a tough few weeks. My 10yo daughter was diagnosed with a very rare, aggressive cancer called interdigitating dendritic cell sarcoma (IDCS). I’m reaching out to identify clinicians/patients who have encountered pediatric IDCS, indeterminate dendritic cell histiocytosis or other (non-LCH) histiocytic sarcomas cases.
I'm trying to understand non-surgical chemo and targeted therapy options, new pathology markers to better diagnose subtypes/treatments, and any data on progression in pediatric patients. Please feel free to share – I’m trying to cast a wide net due to the rarity of this condition and how little is known.
People can contact me directly at my first name (as written in my profile) at https://t.co/ubo0zQRMn0.
Big update!!! 🥂
Starting January 2025, I will begin a tenure-track Assistant Professor position in the Department of Pediatrics, Division of Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition, in the Heersink School of Medicine at the University of Alabama, at Birmingham. 🧵1/5
@illBlissGoretti Wonderful lineup here, I’ll be waiting on streaming platforms.
I love the fact that you acknowledged all the guys that put this together on the album cover. I pay good attention to those guys; what’s the lyrics without them? All the best nwanne 💯
My autobiography is now published on the @NobelPrize website. It covers both my personal and professional life, highlighting the decisions and events that have had the biggest impact. I appreciate the opportunity to tell my story. Hope you enjoy reading it
