There also seems to be a wide range of clinical severity vis-a-vis medical decision-making related to possible interventions lumped together in group C. Not only seems too granular, but perhaps too granular in the tails rather than in the middle where it matters?
Are you in the terminal a lot with Claude but work a lot with markdown files? I am using glow to see rendered markdown in the terminal. They have a great tagline, too. Anyone using anything else?

#PVRI2026 was incredible! Got to catch up with friends & colleagues, hear exciting science, share our own (PAEC biopsies & systems pharmacology for precision PAH care) and applaud @brownpvd.bsky.social colleagues @willoldham.bsky.social & Dr. Klinger who were recognized for their own stellar work!
📣 We are recruiting a post-doctoral fellow!
Join an interdisciplinary, NIH-funded research program studying metabolic reprogramming in pulmonary fibrosis with strong translational focus and collaborative environment. Apply here: jobs.brownhealth.org/search/jobde...
For ~century, we’ve asked: why do proliferating cells ferment glucose even when O2 is around? I’m thrilled to share our latest work @natmetabolism.nature.com, led by @thebiokimist.bsky.social. By leveraging conditional essentiality in HPLM, we propose a provocative new answer to this classic Q. 🧵
When I ask a patient what medicines they take and they wave their hands and say “it’s in the chart” I need them to understand that “the patient’s chart” is a mythical concept, more akin to the scattered scribblings of the British constitution rather than a single, comprehensive document.
Excited to share our latest work out today in @cp-molcell.bsky.social, revealing a molecular link between succinate dehydrogenase and purine synthesis, connecting two fundamental metabolic pathways. Huge congratulations to the first author, Mushtaq Nengroo! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Woohoo! Latest preprint from the lab describing how fibroblasts can use alanine to bypass glutamine requirements for differentiation and ECM production. It's a lovely example of metabolic flexibility with implications for how we study cell metabolism. Shout out to Fei Li, who led this work! #cureipf

Excited to announce that, In 26 days, I will be joining Brown University Health! Excited for new colleagues, new opportunities, and renewed energy to advance our work toward a cure for pulmonary fibrosis!
Phew! I was worried for a minute that I let the cat out of the bag, but it is internet official.

Such a great meeting! Looking forward to #PVRI2026 in Dublin!
#rstats folks: If you have a habit of updating your library after an R upgrade by copying the old one and run update.packages().
--> DON'T DO THAT <--
Especially not with 4.5.0. You will overwrite base packages with ones from a previous version and as these are not on CRAN, things go bad.
Thanks so much @navneetsinghmd.bsky.social @brownpvd.bsky.social for the opportunity to visit and hospitality! Wonderful to be able to see you all! @gauravchoudhury.bsky.social @willoldham.bsky.social
Thanks! This is superhelpful!
#rstats folks! Does anyone have workflow tips on using ggplot2 in both manuscripts and slide presentations? Currently using targets to generate panels/figures themed for manuscript. These are not easy to port to slides given size of points, fonts, etc. Any advice appreciated!

I do not pay the kind of attention to college basketball that I once did but it is still important to take time out of my day to root against Duke
🏋️♀️ Strength training is vital for women entering #menopause - boosting metabolic, mental, & bone health. But like any intervention, it needs proper assessment & guidance. I started at 43, lifting heavy: no injuries. The secret? Good coaching, mobility, movement literacy, slow progression, and rest.
Senescent cells contribute to disease and are found in many tissues but are hard to analyze because markers have been derived in culture and do not account for cell-type differences. Here, we define new signatures based on millions of single cells (1/5) www.nature.com/articles/s41...
