That said, we deeply appreciate again the interest and hope that this study has sparked and we will work to inform you ASAP on the protocol as soon as we get through the IND process with FDA. Thank you all 🙏🏻 /end

before the protocol is fully confirmed. I’m sure many people have thoughts and lived experience about dosages and protocol, but when we’re starting something new like this we have to follow guidance from studies that have gone before, so that is what we’re doing right now. 2/

Thanks everyone for the excitement and questions about our rapamycin trial for #LongCOVID. We will definitely share a protocol as soon as we can on the regular channels (clinical trials.gov, etc), but we are still waiting on some clearances from regulatory bodies 1/

When I tell this story, all Americans 🇺🇸 and most British 🇬🇧 don’t believe me.
Italy 🇮🇹 cannot have startups by design. This is due many items, starting with the untranslable “studio di settore”.
The 🇮🇹 tax authorities assume that given x company assets you MUST make a profit 1/5

Researchers provide an important clue to Long Covid, finding viral proteins in the blood of 25% of people > 1 year after infection. Team at UCSF led by @MichaelPelusoMD and supported by Amy Proal @microbeminded2 of @polybioRF

Our new @UCSF #FindCOVID/#LIINC paper in @NatureComms showing SCV2 burden in first 3 weeks of COVID predicts future #LongCovid.
In addition to LC treatment trials, we need investment in studies to prevent LC! Zero US-based trials on prevention so far.

Excited to be visiting @VirusesImmunity at the 2nd @YaleCII symposium today to talk about #LongCovid - Where we are, where we need to go, and how we can get there.

Keynote talk by @MichaelPelusoMD. “#LongCovid is not a mystery anymore. Working with patients, I have optimism that we can figure this out.” #YaleCIISymposium

Our mechanistic review of #LongCovid - published in @CellCellPress - hopefully will be helpful coming out of the very inspiring RECOVER-Treating Long COVID meeting this week.
Excited for the progress we will make together in the next year!

The preventable loss of a family-owned neighborhood small business, the kind of place San Francisco supposedly cares about. What say you, @MattHaneySF and @LondonBreed ? sfstandard.com/2024/09/07/ba…
Today in San Francisco, we have Hot Fog. What is up with that.

Everyone still underestimates Paul Graham's theory that the more charismatic presidential candidate always wins, which has held true in every US election since they started doing televised debates in 1960 (with very rare exceptions)

New @UCSF #LIINC paper: immune activation & viral persistence in tissue up to 2 years post-COVID. Found double-stranded RNA in #LongCOVID, suggesting active reservoir persists and evades immune clearance. Thanks @polybioRF, @NIH for support. @ScienceTM

OK that was rad. We often get flyovers at the start of @SFGiants games that go right over my home. Usually F15s from the California Air National Guard at Moffet Field, or a C130 from Travis AFB. But tonight, a U2 spyplane just overflew the house!

We're back at #SIIM24 & @UCSFimaging's Dr. Marc Kohli (@shadowdoc) will be presenting twice today! See what topics he'll be covering. ⬇️ @SIIM_Tweets

So grateful for this @ScienceMagazine piece by @jcouzin highlighting 2 studies - @DrDenDunnen's and our's by @keylas3 et al (with @PutrinoLab) showing that IgG from people with #longCOVID can transfer patients' symptoms in mice👇🏽
