@mbeisen @curious_cynic You mean publish on X and Bluesky? Or just in the MSM? Or just tell friends…

@curious_cynic Don’t publish in journals is not the same as don’t publish

Some forward thinking science foundation should announce a competition to be held in 2029 to fund early career scientists who did not publish **any** of their postdoc work in journals. Inspire them to not just preprint but come up with new ways to communicate and encourage use of their work.

@CaitlinPacific One of the most beautiful things I have read in quite a while. Thanks

I wrote this story because the state of the nation and the world stopped making sense to me, and my iPhone addiction only made things worse.
I craved connection to the eternal, to the old codes and promises, to world without end. And I found it. theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…

@awgaffney Is that what we do for folks who are sick? They are why I went into medicine.

Much to ponder next week in the ICU

The doctor of the future will prescribe heavy lifting, whole foods, high protein, clean drinking water & 10,000 steps a day.

We are heartbroken to announce that Prof (Stephen) Ben Walsh, died peacefully on 30th Sept while surrounded by family & friends. Both his family & @RenalUCL are raising funds to find a way to honour his memory and achievements. More info below: justgiving.com/page/in-memory… Ben's passion for science & medicine was an integral part of who he was. And after self-diagnosing with lung cancer 18 months ago, he decided keep his condition private to protect his clinical and academic work. Remarkably Ben continued to work throughout his illness, right to the very end, ensuring that his students, colleagues and patients were taken care of, and that all he had built would continue on. There are no words to really express the profound sadness we feel, the loss of a dear friend, colleague and mentor. He will leave a very large hole in our lives and he will not be forgotten. Details of funeral/memorial services will be made available in due course. We're also requesting anyone with pictures or videos of Ben to upload these to the Google Photos or Dropbox links below. We've also attached a link to a Google Doc for messages of condolence you may wish to leave for the family.

Wow! Great to see a trainee and a collaborator describing the virtues of Kidney Cure ( both trainees of my friend and colleague, @gerardo_gamba )

The KidneyCure application cycle is open! Four funding opportunities are available to kidney researchers, including the William & Sandra Bennet Clinical Scholars Program, who's alums include @SaynaNorouzi (@GlomCon) & @ssfarouk (@Neph_SIM). #KidneyResearch #FundingOpportunities

If that were true, I would need to scan every published paper. Instead I peruse top journals in my field. Impact is important.
Prof. Nikolai Slavov@slavov_n
@ItaiYanai I think very differently. Discovery, mentoring, teaching, the success of my students, and many other things are far more rewarding for me. Also, I place more confidence in my (and community's) evaluation of a research article than in journals. blog.slavovlab.net/2014/12/17/exc…

This is why using genetic human disease to anchor one’s experiment is so useful. The evolutionary purpose of the protein is revealed by the disease.
Kevin Mitchell@WiringTheBrain
That's why we see the same protein often involved in very different processes in different contexts, interacting with different partners in different molecular networks or pathways...

Great work and nice summary. Although it does confirm my bias!

As the editorialists @SofiaAhmedMD and @VictoriaRiehlT noted, let’s do better for our patients and give them more choices for managing chronic kidney failure. annals.org/aim/article/do… (my first tweet thread - hope I did it right)

@eric_weinhandl @ChristosArgyrop This seems like an association and might be broadly confounded.

I wish I had paid more attention to hydration earlier on. I might have avoided some chronic problems if I had done so.
You’ll find me with my water bottle everywhere now.
David Ellison@dhekidney
Two recent developments confuse me rounding in hospital; every house officer now has their water bottle at all times (see pix) and when did all caregivers start wearing scrubs 24/7?

From the guy who discovered and studied the rats that lack the hormone that makes us able ‘stay hydrated’ without doing the water bottle dance. journals.physiology.org/doi/full/10.11…

@dhekidney What’s confusing about wanting to be hydrated and dressing appropriately for the hospital?
