Is there something better than capturing a sunset in a carrot juice bottle ?
Overlooked Benefits of living in New Haven - you get to meet Oncology giants like Roy Herbst in your neighborhood, and (even better) their new dog!!! #WorkLifeBalance #PetsThatOwnDocs
Just returned from the @faseborg.bsky.social Lung Epithelium in Health and Disease meeting! It was the LARGEST ever, hall was simply full, and enthusiastic discussions went on till late. Science was great, meeting old friends & colleagues and making new ones PRICELESS!!! #ScienceMatters
Markie was so stressed that she could not watch the screen.. but I could hear her prayers. #spain❤️ #worldcup2026
2/n Demands are minimal: Independent medical evaluation. Red Cross access. Charges or release. Independent investigation. He is not alone: >1500 Palestinian health workers have been killed, many others still in detention, with no charges, 6 have already died #SaveDrAbuSafiya
1/n Signatories from 70 countries, across all continents; healthcare workers, concerned citizens, accomplished scholars from world's top universities, all wrote to World Medical Association refusing to accept silence when a colleague, is detained, tortured. So far NO ANSWER from @medwma.bsky.social
Our urgent call in @bmj.com is out: >3400 signed letter calling on Word Medical Associations to STOP THEIR SILENCE. Dr. Abu Safiya is imprisoned by Israel >18 months with no charges, in solitary confinement, lawyer reports beatings, danger to his life. This must End. 🧵 www.bmj.com/content/394/...
Who said there’re no biomarkers in Pulmonary Fibrosis? In phase 2 trial of an LPA1 antagonist that ⬇️ FVC decline, treatment improved epithelial injury, fibrosis biomarkers in IPF , inflammation, fibrosis, collagen degradation biomarkers in PPF. Really cool link.springer.com/article/10.1...
Jason Stanley, renowned philosopher and leading scholar calls the silence of American Medicine on Dr. Abu Safiya a scandal, saying: the protection of Medical Personnel CANNOT be selective! I AGREE!! #SaveAbuSafiya tinyurl.com/SaveMD
Join us for an urgent Webinar about Dr. Safiya, Friday July 10th, at 12PM - I will be among the speakers - physicians should be rewarded for taking care of their patients not detained and tortured for it cugh.org/events/webin...
was all for USMNT in this World Cup, but sadly, after the CORRUPT INTERVENTION, there was no other outcome. The US could not win, cause that a win would’ve been blemished forever. Sport betting 101: bet against any team the man in the White House intervenes for. #TrumpCurse
The protection of medical personnel cannot be selective. Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya has been held without charge for 18 months by Israel, beaten and tortured and his lawyer says his life is in immediate DANGER. Sign the healthcare workers petition demanding action: forms.gle/Jyt4AxZ6Cmbd...
Wouldn’t be a PCCSM Fellowship Orientation without homemade cookies from our favorite fellowship coordinator Sue😊 #ThisIsYalePCCSM #BestFellowship
From our fellowship director: you may have faculty or trainees with ties to Venezuela, here’s an opportunity to show solidarity: Donate to the Venezuelan American Medical Association (VAMA) earthquake relief fund #HelpVAMA nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com?url=https%3A...
Is there a better way to celebrate the achievements of a lab member who’s leaving for next phase than Pizza at Ernie’s Pizzeria and Ice Cream at Bill’s Carousel? #WestvilleCT #NewHavenBliss #KaminskiLab
We flood our trainees with swag - including onesies for babies - which sometimes are used appropriately for pets 😍
Love seeing our fellowship coordinators preparing the swag for the new fellows!! #BesrAdmins #WelcomeNewFellows #ThisIsYalePCCSM

Opening verse of Book of Psalms says it accurately: “Blessed is the man not walking in counsel of the wicked, nor standing in road with sinners” Blessed be NYC Mayor Mamdani for not marching with bigots, racists, proponents of ethnic cleansing and genocide. #ShameOnSchumer #בעצתרשעים
Grateful to all the amazing people who worked on this manuscript, it is a true multi-national, multi-institutional effort, especially @AurelienJustet, Venerino Poletti, Claudia Ravaglia, Ivan Rosas, Sarah Tomasetti, their teams #CollaborationMatters #TrumanWasRight www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
But most important is our finding that, not unlike early-stage cancer, the molecular and cellular hallmarks of IPF, a LETHAL disease, occur before loss of pulmonary functions or symptoms, highlighting the urgent need for early detection #EarlyIPFIsIPF www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
There are also interesting findings regarding fibroblast, endothelial, immune cell populations www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
These alveolar niche findings are replicated in archived samples obtained by video assisted thoracoscopy two decades earlier (!) at the NIH, as well as in spatial transcriptomic analyse www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
snRNASeq of Early IPF lungs reveals emergence of aberrant basaloid cells & alveolar intermediate epithelial states & marked loss of AT2 and AT1 cells in early IPF. These changes associate with subsequent disease progression 🙀 #EarlyIPFisIPF www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
