Thank you @opeyemiolabisi.bsky.social and the whole @dukekidney.bsky.social , @gbadegesinlab.bsky.social , Laura Barisoni et al! It was a great couple of days of scientific excellence mixed with pleasant company and nice weather. #APOL1 #FSGS #rFSGS #genetics #pediatrics #NephSky #SkyNeph #Medsky

We have the momentum, let’s solve the problems of rFSGS, first step is to have critical mass of patients’ derived biomaterials to start answering fundamental questions that will lead us to better understanding of disease mechanisms and durable therapy🙏🏽

Happy to share this excellent editorial on our recent NEJM paper www.nejm.org/doi/10.1056/... by Simone @genetickidneydoc.bsky.social Simone you nailed it! www.nejm.org/doi/10.1056/... 🙏🏽

Our initial observations in @dukepump.bsky.social a program addressing the workforce crisis in uronephrology. journals.lww.com/cjasn/fullte... Take home: program is feasible, student feelings of id as BioMed researcher up!! We are excited with these baby steps #NIDDK @asnkidney.bsky.social #ASPN 👏

Happynew year College Students!! We are accepting applications for tthe Duke PUMP. A summer research and immersion program to address the workforce crisis and diversify the workforce in Uronephrology. Spend & enjoy a summer of science at Duke. Link for application duke.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

Just saw this paper which says that APOL1 channel activity drives podocyte injury, and that small molecule APOL1 inhibitors are beneficial in a mouse model of APOL1-mediated CKD...intriguing: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Welcome @dukepump.bsky.social

Duke PUMP is our effort to address the workforce crisis in Nephrology& urology. We are accepting applications for our 3rd cohort. Only 37% of positions filled in Peds Neph this year!! We should engage young folks in career in Neph from elementary school!! #NIDDK #ASPN @asnkidney.bsky.social

Amazing, the story of the humble beginning of Congressman Shri Thanedar of Michigan @shrithanedar.bsky.social The only Pharmaceutics researcher in Congress. In him we have a huge champion for #rFSGS @rfsgsinitiative.bsky.social @kidneyomicsamps.bsky.social @genetickidneydoc.bsky.social

Great meeting!! Tough problem(s) requiring great minds and stakeholders with “can do attitude”. Amazing listening to Congresswoman Haley Stevens of Michigan linking biomedical research and workforce development to National defense!! @rfsgsinitiative.bsky.social

Match day!! Huge workforce crisis in Peds Nephrology, only 20% of program filled second to the last overall. We need urgent intervention #ASPN #NIDDK #AAP #ASN @atomickidney.bsky.social @jostflynnmd.bsky.social @asouth-neph.bsky.social @kidneyomicsamps.bsky.social @rheaultm.bsky.social

Bluesky community, please welcome @dukeopsd.bsky.social This is an innovative centralized PSTP program @dukemedschool.bsky.social It leverage & extend access to research & career support for Trainees & Young Investigators. Please follow us🙏🏽

Nephrology and Transplant community please welcome Krista @kristalentine.bsky.social to bsky @kidneyomicsamps.bsky.social @rfsgsinitiative.bsky.social @rheaultm.bsky.social @nephrosparks.bsky.social @mcstarr1.bsky.social @atomickidney.bsky.social @mannonmom.bsky.social

Hello bsky community of biomedical researchers, nephrologists, transplant nephrologists, Please welcome and follow @kristalentine.bsky.social giant and thought leader in transplant research, #APOLLO @the-asci.bsky.social @asnkidney.bsky.social @opeyemiolabisi.bsky.social 🙏🏽

🚨 We are officially two weeks out from the #rFSGSConference! 🚨 Reserve your spot so you can join us in Washington, DC to discuss #rFSGS research, funding, and treatments. Register today: www.scgcorp.com/rFSGS2024/Re...

rFSGS is a major cause of kidney tx loss in FSGS. Join us on Dec 9th in DC with pts and other major stakeholders in the room to discuss how we can harness modern tools to address this area of need @kidneyomicsamps.bsky.social @genetickidneydoc.bsky.social #alessiafornoni @opeyemiolabisi.bsky.social

Check out the final version of this paper in AJT focusing on genetic evaluation of kidney transplant candidates. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... Thanks Christie Thomas #UniIowa for leading the efforts and all the Co-Authors.

@altmetric.com please add @bsky.social mention to your journal article metrics. All researchers especially biomedical researchers, love this❤️ to send the message loud and clear. @opeyemiolabisi.bsky.social @genetickidneydoc.bsky.social @kidneydoc101.bsky.social

www.bostonglobe.com/2024/11/22/l... this may be behind a paywall, but worth sharing nonetheless. Thankfully, most people don’t have experience with talking to parents who have lost a child. The tips the author shares at the end are very helpful if anyone faces this tough situation.

Here we go my pubmed goggler @scholargoggler.bsky.social Cool app. Thanks @bsky.app This is the home for all Scholars and highly functioning folks👍

The final version of our paper www.nejm.org/doi/10.1056/... One APOL1 risk variant is associated with CKD & FSGS. We have a solid basis for new mechanistic studies in our journey to find durable cure for APOL1 KD @opeyemiolabisi.bsky.social @kidneyomicsamps.bsky.social @genetickidneydoc.bsky.social

rFSGS is a major cause of kidney tx loss. There is a need for multidisciplinary rethinking of how we are going to solve this. We are all looking forward to the Dec 9th meeting in DC @genetickidneydoc.bsky.social @isgd.bsky.social #ASPN @opeyemiolabisi.bsky.social @kidneyomicsamps.bsky.social

Excited to be on Bluesky, thanks @kidneyomicsamps.bsky.social for letting me know that this is the right space to have deep discussions about science, medicine, and be in a community of smart people🙏🏽
