@inside_exercise @DHWasserman1 I am DEEPLY saddened by this news. Dave was a warm, engaging, incredibly modest friend. He was one the best scholars around in the area of metabolism. I will miss him very much.

Very shocked to hear that David Wasserman has died after complications from surgery. Very sudden and unexpected. A true giant of glucose metabolism and a really great guy. Very generous too. A huge loss. RIP. @DHWasserman1

A new podcast is online with David Wasserman discussing Glucose metabolism, exercise and the liver. Prof Wasserman is recognised as an absolute authority on glucose homeostasis. @MouseCentral @GlennMcConell1 Spotify open.spotify.com/episode/4lW6q2… YouTube youtu.be/Qw8aJkuBpe4

This is the most scientifically grounded discussion I have heard about implicit bias. Banaji has studied many categories of IB. In all but 3, there has been dramatic improvement. But, there no progress on bias based on age, body weight, or disability. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/hid…

podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the… Listen to these students describe how they “do” their writing assignments by cutting and pasting ChatGpt-generated text. Listen to the way they rationalize what we used to call plagiarism. It spells the end of writing assignments.

I woke up this morning with a fantasy that Jackson gets appointed to the SCOTUS and when a big case comes up she gets together with Clarence Thomas. She is so eloquent & convincing that he breaks down crying, regrets for his awful votes and decisions, and then joins the liberals

About 20 years ago, we developed a new mouse model system to study type 2 diabetes. Here we review >100 articles that describe discoveries from that model, including some dramatic developments in diabetic nephropathy. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Thrilled to have been awarded the 2023 “Type 2 Diabetes Millennium Award” to study “the heterogeneity of insulin secretory granules”. Thank you @DiabetesAus for your incredible support of our work.

What does #research into changes in the gut health of babies, a study looking at ways of preventing the pancreas from ageing, studies on improving outcomes in foot and kidney complications, and research on the emerging impact of COVID-19 have in common??? diabetesaustralia.com.au/mediarelease/d…

Airing my festivus grievance: helium balloons. Helium is a finite, non-renewable resource necessary for basic research and medical treatments. Stop putting it in balloons! news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/…
