I might have gone a little over board making this.... but totally worth it!
It is always so hard to know if you are doing a good job as a parent. But seeing as my teen left this on my whiteboard. I think I am doing okay so far. What do you think.
There’s a big story everyone is missing—but this article hits on it. We aren’t just seeing public health dismantled bc we’ve been taken over by conspiracy theorists and lunatics. What we’re really seeing is the giant, predatory, underegulated wellness industry come to Washington.

As I keep saying, T cells are the best cells. 🧪 Congratulations.

New research from Dixit lab @yalemed.bsky.social showing nerve-associated macrophages (NAMs) decline in aging which impairs the breakdown of fat and increases inflammaging. Dixit addresses the biology of aging and intercommunication between nerves and macrophages. www.nature.com/articles/s43...
Nerve-associated macrophages control adipose homeostasis across lifespan and restrain age-related inflammation - Nature Aging
Gonzalez-Hurtado, Leveau and colleagues characterize adipose resident tissue macrophages across lifespan in mice, finding that nerve-associated macrophages, which mitigate inflammation and control lipolysis and catecholamine resistance, are lost during aging.

WGA Statement on ABC’s Decision to Pull Jimmy Kimmel Live!
This is a massive, history making abuse of your power. It will define your legacy and one day you will come to regret punishing free speech and trying to destroy democracy.
One of the hallmarks of authoritarianism is to terrify people into self-censorship. ABC ending Kimmel’s show is the perfect example of this.
Congratulations to my friend Randi Weingarten on the launch of Why Fascists Fear Teachers. From banning books to controlling curriculum, authoritarians go after public education because it's a cornerstone of democracy. Randi's book is a critical read for this moment. sites.prh.com/whyfascistsf...
We all said it when he was looking to be confirmed. I did not need more proof but hopefully this gives those hold outs some. Now please tell your representatives that it is time for Congress to finally impeach RFK! #impeachrfk #impeach #savescience

Trying to come up with a way to help explain immunology to a general audience on social media, any critiques are welcome. Here is a few images I have made for how i am thinking of approaching it. 🧪
