We are privileged to have a phenomenal #Scientist-Leader at the helm @utmbhealth . Driving #innovation in #kidney treatments via original research. 🚀⚡️ @UTMBinnovations
Today, I had the privilege of presenting to @bmb_utmb as part of their weekly BMB Seminar Series. I shared my professional background in kidney research and key findings of those studies such as new advancements, including a potential new drug for kidney disease. It was a pleasure to get to talk with @UTMBHealth faculty, staff, and students about leading research and innovation in this area of study that I am so passionate about.

MAGI2, is a new biomarker for glomerulopathies! 🌟 This slit diaphragm protein is key to nephrin 🐙localization and causes effacement shown with our rapid zebrafish model. 🐟🔬 With MAGI2, we can distinguish primary from secondary FSGS! As shown in our manuscript uploaded at bioRxiv, even FSD (filtration slit density) measured by PEMP at @NIPOKA_Podocyte alone offers a clear differentiation between primary and secondary FSGS, marking an amazing step for kidney biopsy analysis and patient care! This discovery is a result of extraordinary collaboration within the STOP-FSGS project, funded by BMBF, bringing together world-class research teams: 🇩🇪 @Tobias_B_Huber 's lab 🇩🇪 UKE Pathology 🇫🇷 Christos Chatziantoniou's lab 🇮🇹 @GianniCapasso4 's lab 🇩🇪 Thomas Benzing ’s lab 🇩🇪 Uwe Völker's lab 🇩🇪 @NIPOKA_Podocyte GmbH 🇩🇪 and my fantastic team at the @UMGreifswald doi.org/10.1101/2024.12.01.6… A heartfelt thank you to all involved in this international effort !🌍💪🔬🙏

Investors should be honest with themselves on how hard it is to develop a drug, let alone make money from a drug See analysis by @AtlasVentures We try to give you the background to skew the results in your favor #learnbiotechinvesting #biotech #investing #BiotechPrometheus

$10M bet from @AstraZeneca on engineering Tregs for type 1 diabetes. Really cool to continue to see CAR Ts shift from oncology to how we think about autoimmune treatment. Proving that cell therapy can work beyond oncology! 👏

Nah
Sad news for all current graduate students out there. ChatGPT pretrained on scientific papers of the last two decades can now predict the results of your study. Oops. nature.com/articles/s41562-0…

Reminder: Drug development is hard. People think it's linear, but it's not Here are schematics of what most people think, what it is in reality, & modifications for small or large molecules Investors take note: all must work to MAKE a drug, but almost any step can BREAK a drug!

Super excited to partner with Tim Niewold @HSpecialSurgery on a new #clinicaltrial to expand testing of our #Integrin #agonist in #lupus in addition to #lupusnephritis and develop it as a first-in-class myeloid directed therapeutic, with support from the @LupusResearch via their Inaugural Translational Award to Tim. @UTMBinnovations @utmbhealth lupusresearch.org/lupus-rese…
