So incredibly proud of the hard work from the JAB lab and especially for recent PhD graduate Omar Osorio leading the charge on this exciting work just published online in JCI Insight! insight.jci.org/articles/view/…

There are no words adequate to express the gratitude I feel for those who contributed to and supported me through this effort. It’s the product of their talent, fortitude, guidance and belief that made it possible. Especially @tombrettlab and countless others who will hear from me in due time ❤️🙏🥂

You know how the emails pile up over the holidays, and when you clean your inbox out by quick screen/delete, you hope you didn't get rid of something important? Just found out we @jablab3.bsky.social had a big paper accepted a week ago because the notice got deleted. Happy discoveries!

Isn’t it amazing that when bullying behavior happens to others, it’s easy to give advice and guidance. But when it happens to you, it’s hard to figure out what to do in the moment.

Interesting riff on science inspired by a story about Chappell Roan. I like it. Equally good food for those: 1) quietly struggling to find the motivation to keep going with their science 2) ignorantly raging about the process and taxpayer value of science www.instagram.com/reel/DCjzrMJ...

This is very interesting. And it DOES NOT mean that TREM2 is not a good target. It's a complex target.
