Proud of this work from our lab—led by my very talented mentees @JiaqiZou19 and @RiyaYerramilli—reviewing how manganese transport from the gut to the brain shapes health and disease. @Cornell @CornellCHE @CornellNutri frontiersin.org/journals/physi…

Very proud of this. Immense thanks to @BekerAydemir for barging into my office and telling me to “unleash myself” as I was writing the introduction to my dissertation, which became this nice review 🎓

On this fine July Friday, we know what you need: a discussion on ZIP family zinc transporters relevant to β Cell Function and Insulin Regulation. We are happy to share our review in The Journal of Nutrition! @jnutritionorg @CornellCHE @CornellNutri jn.nutrition.org/article/S0022-…

Tariffs & ICE raids are connected insofar as they are attempts to blame economic & social conditions entirely on the actions of foreigners while attempting to paint domestic enemies as a traitorous fifth column working with the foreigners to undermine the country

In rhetoric, this administration is only deporting "criminals", in reality, they are gleeful for the chance to go after people who came to the US as a baby and have done nothing but contribute positively to the only home they've known for decades. Fundamentally anti-American.

Seven of the cited sources in the MAHA report don’t appear to exist at all. “The paper cited is not a real paper that I or my colleagues were involved with,” Keyes told NOTUS via email. New on @NOTUSreports from @emilyykennard and @MargaretManto notus.org/health-science…

Incredibly proud of my two amazing graduate students @bmitchell828 @JiaqiZou19 on their successful defense and graduation! 🎓👏 Excited to see all the great things you'll accomplish. #GraduateSuccess #ProudAdvisor @CornellNutri

I've received additional confirmation, as well as an email I can share publicly. See the directive NIH grants management staff received from Michelle Bulls, director of extramural policy at NIH

Per source, NIH has been instructed to hold off from issuing ALL awards to Harvard, Cornell, Columbia, Brown, and Northwestern (including med schools) Agency staff have also been instructed to not speak about this funding freeze to grantees and applicants

beautiful story of a very intelligent, determined, and skeptical reader trying to confirm a key detail in a widely read piece of journalism and spending months and thousands of dollars to determine it's in all likelihood true bitsaboutmoney.com/archive/two-am…

@johnpaulp For fun I guess

Why is Alabama playing at North Dakota?

@johnpaulp @PabloEscoburner Being good on first and second down helps you be good on third and fourth down

@PabloEscoburner Tell me what this graph means like I’m 5

Tennessee offense will be studied for generations.

@statsowar I got to 5 and quit. Not my job

I would encourage all of you to sit down and write out you 1-25 before the polls drop tomorrow, just as an exercise in empathy if nothing else

@MatthewSitman @KnowYrEnemyPod @ettingermentum Was just re-listening yesterday. Real ball-knowers. Also a much more enjoyable experience post drop-out lol

I think our @KnowYrEnemyPod episode for subscribers w/ @ettingermentum is holding up really well; we recorded it before Biden stepped down, but all the reasons why we said he should, and what we thought would happen if he did, are looking good right now... patreon.com/posts/if-joes-…

Congrats to @AmyHung_yh @YongeunKim2 and @bmitchell828 for a great job on our newest work in @AJPEndoMetab !! Very proud of the teamwork that was put into this one!See how ZIP14 influences glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and metabolic responses ⬇️ doi.org/10.1152/ajpend…
