@pittkidneyctr @jclinicalinvest @StephanieMutch6 @PittDeptofMed @IcahnMountSinai @womeninnephro Very excited to see our joint JCI publication demonstrating that PIEZO1 is a mechanosensor in intercalated cells and is required for FIKS.

Congrats Kleyman & Satlin labs on their work showing intercalated cell PIEZO1 is a mechanosensor governing flow-induced K+ secretion (FIKS) via BK up-regulation! @jclinicalinvest @tkleyman @StephanieMutch6 @PittDeptofMed @IcahnMountSinai @womeninnephro jci.org/articles/view/… 🎆

Working 5 full days a week. Still have work to do in rehab, but thats OK. PEG tube to come out soon!

Big day...survived the ASN mtg, and was discharged from Swallowing Clinic, no more Barium swallows...can eat now!!

Going to asn...nice.

Worked 5 days last week. Barb not thrilled, but it felt good to be back.

Have a sinus infection...can't catch a break.

Time flying by. Back at work 3-4 days a week. Working on frozen shoulder. Eating...yes eating! Eggs and toast never tasted so good!
