As we transition from spring to summer, my career is also entering a different season. For the first time since pre-K, I’m leaving academia! Packing up my office today was bittersweet. I’m grateful to have had the opportunity to lead a lab and look forward to new adventures ahead! #academicsky

Role for the #APOL1 G1 variant in hydrocephalus? Interesting finding with human correlation! One caveat is that Apoe KO mice don’t recapitulate athero (in non-coronaries) without diet stimulus + aging. I would like to see a study with high fat/salt Micky D diet. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

When I got recruited people told me, “Don’t worry, last time anyone didn’t get tenure was back in the big NIH cuts and they just couldn’t get funding, even tho they did great science.” Cold comfort…and warning that R1s don’t care about your science, teaching, or mentoring - just money. #academicsky

I'm a big fan of sequential nephron blockade, including diamox, which I have used successfully many times. But as a reminder, the VAST majority of patients w/ADHF can be successfully decongested with adequate loop diuretic doses and adding thiazides when necessary #medsky #cardiosky

Aw jeez, not this again. According to this consultant, hospitals now *lose* an average of $304,312 per physician per year. 🤦🏻‍♂️ Guess it's time for another thread on budgetary gerrymandering.

Screenshot from the Kaufman Hall “Physician Flash Report,” which asserts that the average physician “subsidy” topped $300,000 for the first time in Q3 of 2024. “The employment model where hospitals subsidize physician employment is broken and needs to change.”

Congrats @fperrywilson and team on this #KidneyWk LBCT! A tremendous effort. My take: a Kidney Action Team would be helpful if we had better diagnostics + therapeutics for AKI; unfortunately our collective clinical toolbox for AKI remains sorely lacking.
