In my recent letter published in @ScienceMagazine, I discuss how political repression, specifically the developments in #Iran, doesn't stop at borders. Universities need to treat this as governance, not politics.

This one feels different. Honored to receive the Jay D. Coffman Early Career Investigator Award from the PVD Council at #ScientificSessions26. This recognition belongs as much to the Whiteheart Lab and my mentors as it does to me. Still a lot to learn, and grateful to keep learning from this community.

ZEUS at #ScientificSessions26: monthly ziltivekimab cut free IL-6 by 76% and hs-CRP by 64% in 6,376 patients with ASCVD + CKD.

3-point MACE: 17.6% vs 17.7% (HR 0.99).

Serious infections: 20.4% vs 17.9%.

Hitting the target didn't lower events. The point is neutral trials teach as much as positive ones so the question now is which patients, which target, and when.

Of course, Inflammation is still a valid target. ZEUS tells us where it isn't enough on its own.

Ran into the University of Kentucky USTiCR undergrads at #ScientificSessions26 and grabbed a selfie. They spent 10 weeks this summer doing full-time cardiovascular research in UK labs, and now they're at Scientific Sessions. Good to see them in the room this early!
