He was a giant in transplantation & immunology. He was also a kind person and a true gentleman. I am ever grateful to him for supporting my research in the early years of my career, and writing a personal letter that made it possible for me to stay in the U.S. RIP. @ASTSChimera

So universities make research professors pay for their entire salary & research through grant funding, but then the university also takes a cut of your grant funding? Seems like you’d have to always apply for grants, so when do you do research? Is this why you’re all kinda grumpy


So proud of @immunoboccia and her recent presentation at the most recent Phagocyte GRC! Congrats also on your award! Getting famous!

It’s worth repeating. A mom drove there. Got handcuffed. Got out of handcuffs. Hopped a fence. Went inside the school and walked out with her two kids. All while 19 officers waited outside the classroom where the gunman was. #UvaldePolice #Uvalde

YES! There is still room for reunion tables at #APSA22. So far we have class of 2002, 2005, 2013, 2015. 2018 is in the works. We will also have complimentary table for class of 2024 and 2025 so they can finally meet in person. Who else wants a table? #togetheragain

I must not be doing my job on the #APSA22 #hypeteam well because @grant_christa is leading the charge to organize the Class of 2018 to sponsor a reunion table. Thanks Christa! Where are my peeps? Let’s uh… reunite! @MarkLikesTrauma @kristyrg39 @robinpetroze @flairsully
