🎉 Great to get this out. Fantastic effort from all our co-authors. Our latest research developing the sodium iodide symporter as an in vivo metabolic sensor for PET imaging. Check it out 👇

🆕Paper by Piotr Dzien, @kblyth1, @DavidYLewis and colleagues proposes PET imaging of the sodium iodide symporter (NIS) as an in vivo testing method for metabolic treatments targeting energetic pathways to rapidly determine metabolic drug potency cancerandmetabolism.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

Honoured to give the First Minister @JohnSwinney a tour of our @CRUK_SI imaging labs today and discuss the importance of the Scotland Total Body PET Facility to Scottish patients. @UofGlasgow @uniofedinburgh @NPIP_Org
First Minister@ScotGovFM

First Minister @JohnSwinney visited @CRUK_SI where he met volunteers and heard from university and charity leaders about the future of cancer research. His visit came as it was announced Scottish scientists will co-lead a global project to improve the treatment of bowel cancer.

My resting heart rate is 48. 😬
Helen@anomalie_blue

Low resting heart rate (bpm < 70) is the best physiological predictor of violent/antisocial behavior. In a remarkable longitudinal study of over 700,000 men, those with the lowest RHR: -were the most likely to commit both violent and non-violent crime -had a 31% increased risk of getting into a car crash -were 41% more likely to be injured as a result of assault -demonstrated an earlier onset of criminality than those with a RHR > 82 bpm When adjusted for confounders (ex: socioeconomic status, physical activity), the relationships between low RHR and antisocial behavior became even stronger.
