Masking is a great example. Ask a gen z “leftist” or “progressive” if they pro-palestine then ask them if they still mask

[Tanisha Long @Tanishaevonne]

It is beyond disappointing to see my alma mater, the University of Pittsburgh, disband its Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.

Pitt’s shameful decision to cave to anti DEI bigotry only hurts students in the long run.

Congratulations to Dr. John Evankovich on his new @nih_nhlbi R56: "Indole Metabolites as Xenobiotic Danger signals in Acute Lung Injury"! 🎉🎊🎉

[Jay Tan @JayXiaojunTan]

How do our cells sense nutrients & metabolites? It's important for not only development but also healthy aging and disease prevention.
Join us tomorrow for a fascinating talk by Dr. @RobertoZoncu about lysosomes in nutrient sensing & growth control! @PittDeptofMed @PittGeriMed

Today there are 1,817 people incarcerated at the Allegheny County Jail. 26 of them are youths in their teenage years.
Teens are not adults.

Dr. @TravisBLear and Dr. Toren Finkel commented on an article published in @NatureAging by Dr. Minamino et al., which suggested that a novel vaccine-based strategy might provide a targeted method to eliminate the #senescent #cell population.

Good evening, Pittsburgh. If you go outside and look pretty much straight up, you will be treated to a Moon/Jupiter dance. They’re so close that it’s just lovely to look at.

When I was an undergrad at a PWI, I had a white man write a letter of recommendation for me - I don’t remember for what. He was so proud of that letter, he sent it to me after he submitted it. In that letter, he told the story of one of our first interactions…

[John Evankovich, MD @JEvankovichMD]

Awesome presentation by Beyza Tuncer - an undergraduate researcher in our laboratory @AgingPitt @PACCM - at the @PittBioSci BIOSC Undergraduate Research Symposium on work she did in the Summer of 2021. Great work!

Every politician running for office should have a response to this article by @JerrySDickinson detailing how they plan to make Pittsburgh and Allegheny County livable and safe for Black people https://t.co/ChPciDi5wb

Her name is Dr. Jill Biden. Get used to it.

This is very bad.
