“I was sure macrophages would simply digest the microplastics and that would be the end of it. I was genuinely shocked by what we found,” said Adam Soloff, PhD, about his study presented at ATS 2025.

“I Was Really Surprised by What We Found”: The Body Doesn’t Handle Microplastics the Way We Thought - Futura-Sciences
What really happens when microplastics get into our lungs? Scientists once thought they knew—but a new study from the University of Pittsburgh shows the truth may be far more troubling. Microplastics are now everywhere—air, water, ... Read more

Jeffrey Epstein advised Steve Bannon that the lawyers representing Brett Kavanaugh in his confirmation hearing should accuse Christine Blasey Ford of being on medications that cause false memories or memory loss.

POTUS gave a convicted child sex abuser favorable treatment, and dangled the prospect of a pardon, so she would tell lies about if he was implicated in her crimes. That's not speculative or circumstantial, it's a cold hard proven fact, in and of itself more than enough to demand removal from office.
Ghislaine Maxwell lied about Trump never going to Epstein's house (directly contradicted by her email correspondence with Epstein), and she was rewarded for that lie with a transfer to a cushier prison. The coverup is happening in plain sight.

Back in February we enrolled and were approved for companionate use of our phase I solid tumor therapy for a patient given weeks to months to live.

He’s here in clinic and hugging staff and everyone in site!

Love this!

Invest in science 😊

Back in 2020, when in person shadowing was not allowed, I began virtual shadowing sessions to help students log their shadowing hours 😊

To date, we have continued these sessions, with our 1000 student signed up!

If you know any students who would like some virtual shadowing hours (free), DMs open🤗

Hi, all!

A small group of people with long COVID is hosting a virtual rally on Saturday at 2:30 pm Pacific. We recognize that not everyone is able to participate in person, so we started hosting protests online in April.

Spent the evening discussing 5 years later regarding the start of the COVID19 pandemic.

I can STILL recall the first patient hand I held after their terminal extubation. A hand I held so they wouldn’t die alone, while the family cried over Zoom.

That sound, that feeling, it is etched into my mind😞

One of the elders of our Greek community brought me a homemade baklava today 🥹

“I’m 89. When I make baklava it’s for special occasions. You don’t have your mom today but I know she would want you to have baklava for your birthday.”

Love my community 💜
