To all aspiring young #WomenInSTEM: Mentee: Should I avoid being pregnant while trying to secure a faculty position? Me: Be pregnant & go on interviews. If they don’t welcome you with open arms and offer childcare options, they don’t deserve you. #KnowYourWorth

Vaccines save millions of lives. Unfortunately, a small fraction of people develop debilitating diseases after vaccination. Thank you @WSITYpod for having me on the show to discuss post-vaccination syndrome. Please listen and understand what the patients are going through and why many of them lost trust in the medical and scientific establishment. We must do better.
Why Should I Trust You?@WSITYpod

@NeurologistMom Sorry to hear you feel this way. We are still very much interested in Long COVID, PAIS, and ME/CFS, and will continue our search for the mechanisms and therapy. Please do not lose hope 💙

What I have realized recently is that researchers’ interest in Long COVID seems to be fading. It is probably the exhaustion of trying to pursue studies without funding. We already felt at the edge of an abyss. Now it feels like we are shoveling into it.

For the first time, a prestigious Dutch #VICI grant (€ 1.5M) has been awarded to research on post-acute infection syndromes (#PAIS). I’m deeply grateful for this opportunity to further indentify the underlying mechanisms: zonmw.nl/en/news/39-res…

Yale School of Medicine researchers review mucosal immunity and find that nasal, oral, and vaginal vaccines can build tissue resident memory T and B cells plus local IgA, blocking infection at entry sites where shots often fall short. nature.com/articles/s4157…

A very welcome sober analysis of this incredibly important topic - as expected from this careful group, it captures both optimism and realism "Despite the potential of intranasal vaccines, safety of these approaches must be rigorously tested owing to the anatomical proximity of the nasal mucosa to the central nervous system..."
