A $4.2M NIH grant will expand @ucsf/UC Center for Climate, Health and Equity research into how climate-related events, such as wildfires, affect health. These events particularly affect young children, seniors and people with chronic diseases, researcher Arianne Teherani says. ucsfh.org/407VW50

Red, blue, republican, democrat -- in moments like this we come together. Thank you, Greg Abbott.

A month ago we Vevo Therapeutics announced that we have generated the largest single-cell perturbation atlas in history, Tahoe-100M. Today, we announce that we will fully open-source Tahoe-100M in Feb, as part of a collaboration with NVIDIA Healthcare to train cell state models.

“People are often surprised that we don’t have a drug to treat #TBI,” our chief of neurotrauma Geoffrey Manley, MD, PhD, told San Francisco Chronicle. He is now leading a clinical trial at UCSF evaluating three drugs as potential treatments: sfchronicle.com/health/article… Zuckerberg SF General Hospital & Trauma Center UCSF Health

So awesome! “Daily ferry service is sailing toward Mission Bay.”  Imagine commuting directly to UC San Francisco Mission Bay via high-speed zero-emissions boat! Scheduled to begin service in 2027. Now all we need is service to the South Bay! 😊 ucsf.edu/news/2025/01/4…

AI isn’t replacing imaging specialists, but it has health care experts reimagining the field. From faster diagnoses to better brain scans, here are four ways AI is changing health care at UCSF Center for Intelligent Imaging. tiny.ucsf.edu/zi6Vuc UCSF Center for Intelligent Imaging

Just saw this old tweet… my thinking from seven years ago on what it means to actually predict the future of disease in an individual…
