Tahmina Samad, M.D.

Eid Al Fitr Mubarak! Today marks the end of Ramadan with a celebration. May those celebrating find joy and may we all keep those who aren't able to experience the joys of this holiday in our prayers for a better future.

@diaahadid What can we do as US citizens to help prevent further deterioration of vulnerable population: women and infants? Are there any charitable organizations that donations can be made to in order to help prevent closure of these healthcare facilities? If so, can you identify them?

44th annual Sarnoff conference in SF. A decade has passed by and it still feels like yesterday when my co-fellows and I embarked on a journey of scientific discovery in cardiovascular research as med students. Thank you @SarnoffCardio for this amazing community.

@fxgaldos @SeanM_Wu @StanfordMSTP @Will_Goodyer @HanZhuMD @Raissadati I am so thrilled you are staying at Stanford! I consider it a privilege to know you as a mentee and friend. Looking forward to many more discussions about science and a career in pediatric cardiology over a hot cup of Afghan pink chai ☕️ :)

I have had many mentors who have supported me in my MD-PhD journey, and I could not be more grateful for all of their mentorship and guidance to reach this new milestone @SeanM_Wu @StanfordMSTP @Will_Goodyer @HanZhuMD @Tahmina_Samad @Raissadati

My wife Sofia and I are thrilled to announce we matched to @StanfordPeds for Residency! I will be starting in the Physician-Scientist track in June, and I could not be more thrilled for this next stage of our career!

@CardioOncology @baik_alan @UCSF @UCSFCardiology @ICOSociety @CardioOncCOIN @oncology_cardio @UCSFCancer Congrats Alan!!

Big congrats to Section of #CardioOnc & Immunology faculty member @baik_alan in being promoted to Assistant Professor of Medicine at @UCSF! Alan's research revolves around manipulating hypoxia in #CardioOnc including w/ HIF2 inhibitors (e.g., belzutifan)! @UCSFCardiology

Comment|@Tahmina_Samad and @SeanM_Wu discuss the strengths and limitations of available #models to study #CongenitalHeartDiseases @StanfordMed nature.com/articles/s4416…| 👉rdcu.be/dhJv1

@JoyYWu @SeanM_Wu This is too cute! Thanks for sharing with us :)

The @SeanM_Wu + @JoyYWu origin story begins at #LakeLag. On this day I got the worst sunburn ever while hoping he would notice me. He didn’t. Fortunately this story has a happy ending! #FirstDateAnniversary The “lake” has been dry for decades, so nice to see it refilled by 🌧️

Dr. @SeanM_Wu gives a compelling talk on the journey to dissect pathways/cell subsets in❤️development using combo of novel wet/dry lab techniques, along with solid career advice and scientific wisdom @StanfordCVI 👏A tour de force, & I am honored to be an alumna of his lab!

@HanZhuMD @SeanM_Wu @Joseph_C_Wu @EldrinL @StanfordDeptMed @HeartBobH @saptarsi_haldar @rosenzweig_a @JoelNealMD @HwakeleeMD Congrats! It is a big step! So proud to know you as a colleague and friend. Looking forward to all the discoveries you will make Han.

It’s official!!🎉🎉🎉🥳Even tho it’s been a gradual transition, it still feels like a big step to see it in writing. I’m full of gratitude for the ppl who have supported/believed in me. Thank you. So excited to continue the research to help our #cardioonc/cardio-immuno patients!

@chaz_hong @SeanM_Wu @SarnoffCardio @HanZhuMD @baik_alan @IntMedAbel Likewise, thank you for always being so positive and encouraging Chaz! Looking forward to more conversations and to seeing you at another conference in the near future.

@Tahmina_Samad @SeanM_Wu @SarnoffCardio @HanZhuMD @baik_alan @IntMedAbel Great to see you again!

Sarnoff Annual Conference 2023 in Boston. Amazing conference organized by my lab mentor @SeanM_Wu & Sarnoff organization! @SarnoffCardio @HanZhuMD @baik_alan @IntMedAbel. See you all next year!!

All star panel of industry experts discussing similarities & differences between career in industry vs academic @SarnoffCardio #43Annual Mt. Industry-fast pace, results driven, team oriented, lots of bosses. Academic-more job security, less authority, individual success.

So awesome to hear my prior Sarnoff mentor, @EricAdler17 presenting on the role of LAMP2 iso forms in the heart in Danon disease. #KSHEARTDEV23

@SoahLeePhD giving a beautiful talk on building a pipeline to study cardiomyopathy phenotype from rare mutations using hiPSC-CMs.@SeanM_Wu

Having tried to understand #HLHS, I am awed by pioneering work by @SeanM_Wu & @StanfordCVI colleagues, including @SarnoffCardio alum @Tahmina_Samad, who demonstrated cell autonomous functional & metabolic defexts in HLHS iPSCs!

Dr Sean Wu answering questions after his awesome talk on our lab*s work the at the 2023 Keystone Symposium from Genes to Cures @SeanM_Wu #KSHEARTDEV23 @fxgaldos @Will_Goodyer

Sean Wu Lab representing at Keynote! Fantastic talks all around! #KSHEARTDEV23 ⁦@SeanM_Wu⁩ ⁦@Tahmina_Samad⁩ ⁦@_paulheinrich⁩

I always learn so much about cardiomyopathies from Dr Seidman! Amazing talk! #KSHEARTDEV23

Great advice from panelists! Ibrahim Domian Didier Stainier @kristyredhorse #KSHEARTDEV23
