Student eval comments that'll keep this wannabe comedian going: "I appreciated making the jokes in lectures" "I like when he cracks little jokes" "He made some funny jokes about the topics that helped me learn" "Daniel was a great instructor and so funny" "He knows the material and is funny"

Can NAD⁺ slow aging? The supplement helps cells make energy and repair damage, but human evidence is thin, and hype is high. Experts (incl. APS members Daniel Craighead and Jonas Treebak) say proceed with caution. More in The New York Times: ow.ly/8ziz50XircF #ISpyPhysiology 🧪 📷: iStock

Your lungs hold secrets about your health as you age – here's a simple test to check them
The condition of our lungs can reveal a great deal about our wider health. Luckily you can also get them into better shape.

Can you hack aging with NAD supplements?
Early research shows potential—but human studies haven’t proven the hype.

Our work on cerebrovascular pulsatility index in CKD has been ranked by @wiley.com as a #topviewedarticle in @physrep.bsky.social, meaning that it was in the top 10% most-viewed articles published by the journal in 2023. Give it a read 👇: physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.14814...

Cerebrovascular pulsatility index is higher in chronic kidney disease
Middle cerebral artery (MCA) pulsatility index (PI) was higher, but cerebrovascular reactivity to hypercapnia was preserved in patients with non-dialysis dependent CKD as compared to matched controls....
