Cutting NIH funds hurts all Americans. Why? Three main reasons: #1: These funds support a huge industry in all 50 states. For every $1 of NIH funding generated, there is a short-term return of ~$2.46 in economic activity1. The $4B in cuts will take away $10B from the economy.

With support from a $4M grant, @Zuloaga_lab is leading a new study into how #menopause impacts #AlzheimersDisease, and if an estrogen therapy that targets the brain could help protect against #dementia. #AlzheimersAwarenessMonth albanymed.org/news/4m-nih-gr…

The result of a great collaboration with Yi-Pin Lin @c5486112 and support from @NIAIDFunding (and hard work from many @JesseBonin1). We were curious why Lyme disease outcomes are variable and we tested how co-infecting pathogens impacted pathology (& hematopoiesis!). – at New York, USA

I'm excited to have this out in the world. Kudos to Rachel Grazda 🎉! We pursued the curious link between IFNg-dependent monopoiesis that accompanies bone marrow failure, and we began by asking why aren't dead cells being cleared? nature.com/articles/s41419-0… – at New York, USA

We found heterogeneity among bone marrow monocytes, but in all populations, we found increased expression of SIRPa. Efferocytosis was ⬇️ in bone marrow failure and correlated with high prostaglandins and reduced pro-resolving lipid mediators. #FailedResolution
