1. What are the benefits and risks of GLP1? Our new study in @naturemedicine comprehensively maps all the benefits and risks of GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1) (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound). By Yan Xie, Taeyoung Choi and me 🧵 nature.com/articles/s4159…

Let me address this. We wrote the grant to do this project in 2018. It was funded in 2020. We deliberately delayed this to devote time and effort to addressing Covid and Long Covid. My team and I remain committed to working on LC, but we cannot default on our other commitments.

Large study of #GLP1 users over many years by Ziyad Al-Aly, MD and his team has uncovered more benefits (especially related to addiction and neuropsychiatric disorders) than risks in veterans.

🚨 ICYMI: Our latest study shows that the popular GLP-1 weight loss drugs (e.g. Ozempic) have broad health benefits — reducing risks of 42 health conditions. They are not without risks — increasing risks of of 19 health conditions. nature.com/articles/s4159…

I applaud Robert F. Kennedy Jr commitment to prioritizing funding for Long Covid. We stand ready to work with you to address the needs of Americans impacted by Long Covid. Thanks to Senator Todd Young for raising this important question. youtu.be/x3I8CKL4T1Q?si… via YouTube

To the community: A ‘yes’ to supporting Long Covid research is better than a ‘no.’ We will hold him to it—and I stand ready to work with him if he’s serious about advancing research and care for those impacted by Long Covid.

I talked to Dani Blum from The New York Times about the potential role of GLP-1 drugs on Alzheimer’s disease. They seem promising, but more data is needed for sure. nytimes.com/2025/01/31/wel…

For decades, the junk food industry has deliberately engineered foods to be addictive. Ozempic and other GLP-1 drugs have helped people break free from this cycle. In response, the industry is now searching for ways to counteract the effects of these medications, aiming to design

Honored to speak at Harvard University’s Radcliffe Institute workshop on #LongCOVID. I am energized by our 2 days of brainstorming about the road ahead. The challenges are real, but I’m leaving hopeful. Millions living with Long Covid are counting on our progress—we must keep keep pushing
