End of an era - FINALLY DONE with medical training!! 9 years of post-graduate education/training later, I’m your newest friendly, neighborhood Toxicologist! 🐍🩺☣️🎉
In this week’s #PAIN Featured Image, @HJStratton13 et al. explain how pre-operative prevention of psychological stress-induced sensitization of nociceptors in women can help prevent post-operative pain. Learn more at bit.ly/44bAVbY

Thanks to @IASPpain for promoting our work in #PAIN where we discuss a new concept called prevention of nociceptor remodeling that can change the way we treat pain. By considering a patient's sex, we may be able to intervene early and prevent chronic pain from taking hold.

Surgeries are a common source of #pain in the clinic. Check out our new paper published today in PNAS exploring how stress can lead to enhanced pain after surgery. We found that targeting prolactin can improve outcomes in females. @PNASNews.

Very excited to announce that I received my Notice of Award from @NIH_NINDS today for my F32 fellowship!! Thank you to all my mentors and especially @decouvriez for your support and guidance! Looking forward to investigating spinal mechanisms of #chronicpain.
We appreciate @IASPpain highlighting our work looking at sex differences! These differences could be crucial for tackling #chronicpain

Read this intriguing #EditorsPick about functional sex differences in nociceptors across species from @HJStratton13 et al. and published in @Brain1878. Read more info on this study and many others at bit.ly/45ojVig #PRF

🚨Excited 🚨 to share our newest Porreca Lab manuscript out in @Brain1878 showing functional sex differences in nociceptors across species. Forever grateful to our collaborators @AubinMoutal @anabioscorp @LaurentMartin__ @mahdidolatyari1 @UAZMedTucson

This needs to be shared. #MedTwitter We need patients' just as much as they need us.
The amount of eye baggage I have accumulated in fellowship is obscene. Any aspiring or practicing #derm care to enlighten me on how to fix my circles without actually sleeping? Would be forever grateful 🙏❤️ #medtwitter
Tried to fix sleep, not gonna happen. Gracias #dermatology #ladymedtwitter

Check it out #MedTwitter! Our new article demonstrating indirect targeting of nav1.7 to treat chronic pain is out! #ScienceTwitter
This could be a new therapeutic strategy for #painrelief without opioids! #teamwork
Delighted to announce that our paper is now published in @PNASNews:

A 🧵on this discovery, how we got here, and what it means:

📢@HJStratton13 and @LisaBoinon's paper on NGF/VEGFA is out in @PAINthejournal with contributions from @Kimgmz6 @LaurentMartin__ @AubinMoutal and twitterless others at @NYUDental @NYUPainResCtr

This is so cool!! First time showing sex differences in HUMAN neurons, amazing! Congrats love! #medtwitter #academictwitter #phdtwitter #science
Check out our #bioRxiv preprint from the Porreca lab where we demonstrate sexually dimorphic sensitization in human sensory neurons! A first with big implications for our understanding of #ChronicPain

that feeling when u take off a pair of nitrile gloves to put on a new pair but your hands are sweaty from the last pair so the new gloves don’t slide on easily and they get all bunched up and everyone is watching u and thinking wow he really can’t put on gloves how embarrassing
