Day 1 of our new Endocrinology Practice in sunny San Mateo! Grateful for the collaborative spirit. Dr. Myat Soe and I were there today with commutes of 10 min each & free parking! UCSF Health Endocrinology and Diabetes will now see you on the peninsula!

Just chaired, with Lisa Morselli (MCW), a cool session #ENDO2025 on cardiometabolic health in people with HIV. Steve Grinspoon (MGH) on mechanistic benefits of statins; Celestine Wanjalla (Vandy) on pathologic T cells; & Heidi Crane (UW) on clinical management. @endocrinesociety.bsky.social

Wonderful event last night in Downtown San Francisco for all our UCSF endocrinology faculty, fellows, and fellowship alumni. Wonderful to see so many amazing friends and colleagues from across the last 50 years! We nailed it!

Thrilled last night to see Bob Farese, Jr., an outstanding mentor in whose lab @gladstoneinst.bsky.social trained as a UCSF postdoc. A scientific friendship between 2 academic endocrinologists spanning 21 years! #ENDO2025 #downtownSF

Chinese Dragon Dancers officially welcoming #ENDO2025 to the meeting! @endocrinesociety.bsky.social @ucsfdc.bsky.social

Uplifting to see the science presented by our UCSF early stage investigators in Endocrinology #ENDO2025. Congrats Drs. Karin Wu (bone metabolism) and Rob Weber (mineralocorticoid physiology)!

A great part of #ADASciSessions is getting to see one of our UCSF endocrine fellows present her first poster at her first ADA meeting! Congrats to Dr. Aye Khine and her mentor Dr. Zoe Quandt! Had to wait to catch them (foot traffic!). Love our @ucsfdc.bsky.social faculty who came to support!

UCSF Diabetes is out in force in Chicago at the 85th ADA #ADAscisessions! Amazing posters from trainees and faculty, talks, sessions, panelists, and symposia! We’re doing our part and loving it! @ucsfdc.bsky.social @amdiabetesassn.bsky.social #Chicago !

Loving #Chicago following a scientific ad board meeting this am, ready for #ADA scientific sessions tomorrow! My afternoon? Art Institute of Chicago! See you tomorrow, diabetes community. @ucsfdc.bsky.social

#endocrinology in the house last night! Great time talking science, medicine, and the state of our field. Outstanding UCSF Endo GR today by Dr. Susan Mandel of @pennmedicine.bsky.social on thyroid nodule assessment & triage. @jasosamd.bsky.social @americansurgeon.bsky.social @endosurgsf.bsky.social

When you’re at a scientific conference listening to the keynote during the closing minutes of a nail biter between your alma matter and Wisconsin….Go Bruins!

Thanks NIDDK for supporting leaders from each of the Nutrition and Obesity Research Centers to attend a 2-d workshop last mo on training mentors across the diversity of metabolic research. Madison, WI was COLD, but there was warmth in the room! Thanks, CIMER for running it!

Going to SoCal this wk for Deuel Conference on Lipids, but also visiting my parents and brother who were each evacuated from their homes in my beloved home town of La Canada Flintridge. This was the view from my brother’s backyard last week. Lots of hugs needed!

Today I got word a key paper will be published. I also was privileged to attend our UCSF Department of Medicine’s leadership retreat, this year on mentoring. Closed the day finalizing long term strategy for the UCSF Diabetes Center @ucsfdc.bsky.social. Then, once home, I looked up & saw this. Yeah.

Our commitment to training the next generation of US endocrinologists must address the staggering shortage that currently exists. These are prevalent and complex diseases, people!

I love that I can see myself in my institution’s embrace of the holiday season, including its broad definition. Today walking into my clinic building at The University of California San Francisco!
