"PhD-level experts in your back pocket" is a completely nonsensical description of AI but a pretty good description of social media if you follow the right people

Each summer I have the privilege of helping risings MS2 students do kidney research. This years group got a special treat from Dr. Keisha Gibson who gave our welcome keynote lecture.

Was hoping this shirt would simply be a memento of a different time. Sadly it’s coming out again.

Last year, 9,000 deceased donor kidneys were discarded due to storage and time limitations. Reporter Elizabeth Gabriel joins us to discuss how a lab in Indiana is working to solve this problem with a kidney “life support” machine.

The Effort To Save Thousands Of Donor Kidneys From Being Wasted
Last year, 9,000 deceased donor kidneys were discarded due to storage and time limitations. A kidney “life support” machine could change that.

Melissa and I wrote about our research being purged... www.minnpost.com/community-vo...

Our published work in a government journal curiously disappeared
Several studies for a CDC journal were purged without explanation before a judge’s order restored them. That's unacceptable.

Anxiously awaiting a hoped for NOA for an R25 to bring the goodness of kidney research to undergrads. Feel free to send thoughts, prayers, good vibes, well wishes…whatever you work with.

Do you know a MS1 in an accredited school in Florida? Do they want to do research (and get paid) next summer? Do they think kidneys are cool? I have ten spots in an NIH supported training program if you do....
