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. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.25…

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

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: Identification and targeting of a unique NaV1.7 domain driving chronic pain | PNAS www-pnas-org.ezproxy.med.nyu… A 🧵on this discovery, how we got here, and what it means:

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 @AubinMoutal @mahdidolatyari1 @anabioscorp @UAZHealth

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

Seeing how much the world accepts that it’s impossible to move on after watching CPR really makes me think about how we (medical professionals, especially those who work in Emergency departments) are expected to just move on immediately after a code.
