Julia Edgar Thanks 🙏 Julia. Not on Pubmed yet - Wiley @AdvSciNews need to speed up 2 early cites, 1 read it, other cited it to claim the exact opposite of what we show 😳 Journal of Physiology (edited @PGreenhaff). Huge 💪 effort by Tanner Stokes, Ph.D. Howard Cen in Stuart Phillips (he/him) & Jim Johnson, PhD labs

Does fat influence insulin section? Jim Johnson, PhD and colleagues⁩ report robust insulin secretion in response to fatty acid stimulus in ~8% of donors, challenging the idea that fat has negligible effects on insulin release. medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Way to talk in generalities Joe. Not saying there aren't a lot of fucked up things about pharma. That's why we created Costplusdrugs.com. But to ignore that the same industry has saved who knows how many lives is bullshit and you know it. It's also disrespectful to all

Why weren’t the same people now weirdly obsessing over a shirtless RFK Jr. equally impressed with Fauci running 3 miles a day while being over the age of 80? Because these people don’t actually care about health. Instead it’s all about optics and internet points.

Fascinating developments in weight loss drugs! Eli Lilly's triagonist phase 2 data: Nearly half of participants achieved >25% weight loss, with a quarter surpassing the impressive >30% mark. The bar continues to rise for incretin-based therapies. nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

Intriguing data showing the rather dramatic effects of Retatrutide on weight loss in obese participants: nejm.org/doi/10.1056/NE… Given the degree of weight loss, it'd be interesting to know how well lean tissue mass is preserved 💪

RNAseq counting tools are not perfect. I simulated 240 GTEx samples to test multiple tools. Below I show the difference between actual and estimated counts for each simulated sample. But, what is causing this? And will it affect differential expression? (1/7) #Bioinformatics

Interesting article that explains a lot of the junk that's spread on social media these days. nature.com/articles/s4156…. A bit of Googling doesn't = a degree; let's defer to the experts when it matters... TLDR version: nature.com/articles/d4159…

Most recent commentary on the implications of GLP-1 based therapies on skeletal muscle health: ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI…. Great to see the attention this important topic is receiving!
