"Authorship is more than a line on a CV—it is an ethical necessity. Every cleaned data set, debugged script, and refined figure deserves acknowledgment. And every early-career researcher deserves the confidence that their work will not just be used—but respected."
How an academic betrayal led me to change my authorship practices. #Science

Thrilled to share this in-depth investigation of the gut-brain axis. Hope you will enjoy this humble exploration of new hypotheses--a process I truly enjoyed.
Is brain/gut axis a superhighway for immune response to #Alzheimers? Study in @cellpress.bsky.social shows immune cells use that route in mouse models. Feeding animals high fiber diet reduced AD-related frailty. Congrats Dr. Winer, Dr. Makhijani, & Dr. Andersen

The gut immune system is altered in mouse model of Alzheimer’s, providing a new target for therapeutics
Feeding the animals a high fiber diet reduced Alzheimer’s-related frailty including tremor.
