A tomahawk missile costs the taxpayers the same amount of money as one five-year major NIH research grant. Remember that every time they tell us one of those missed the target, blew up paintings of enemy aircraft or tanks, or was the fifth and unnecessary hit on the same target.
Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM
I love how diligently you have continued to march down this path to solve this problem. Hopefully this will all eventually culminate in a paradigm shift for aortic disease.
(Also, incredible figure)
In December we published a @jaccjournals.bsky.social Brief Report demonstrating that ascending aortic diameter can be partially estimated from the ECG.
It's so cool that the fbi is basically the make a wish foundation for one podcaster
A poignant piece from my colleague at the Stanford Prevention Research Center.

Nice work, @just-jack-1.bsky.social and several other Stanford Cardiology fellows and recent alums! Stanford is a wonderful place for trainees who want to conduct collaborative and high impact research. #CardioSky

Incredibly important story that everyone should read.
These are not disorganized lone actors, but well-funded and powerful networks to be treated as serious threats.
They are using our work to push a eugenicist and racist agenda that is scientifically invalid and morally reprehensible.
Proud to share the inaugural JACC Cardiovascular Statistics annual report, offering a clear-eyed understanding of cardiovascular health in the United States.
Where we stand. Where we've made gains. And where we're falling behind. #JACCStats #medsky #cardiosky

Seth Rosenthal 9:53 AM craig hodges for his career shot a three point percentage of 0.39985795454 9:54 which is to say craig hodges might hate round numbers even more than alex 9:54 if he'd hit one more three-pointer in his career he'd be above 40 percent 9:54 and then there would be exactly 50 players in the 40 percent club alex rubenstein 10:22 AM one of these days, probably not in our lifetimes, society will focus on the point of all those anecdotes: to recognize the mere fact that there exists a number that someone reached which means X, Y, and Z, regardless of the level of roundness of that number (ie lets say an nba player had a certain number of career games scoring 30+ points, and that number of games wouldnt be a record, but if you change the threshold to 29 or 31, that unlocks a number of career such games that would be a record, who gives a rip? again, the point of the anecdote should be the acknowledgement that there simply exists a number that someone reached more than anyone or whatever, regardless of whether that number is 100 or 94.618 or 61.849)…or that someone has the most or fewest or 2nd-most or 2nd-fewest, etc. of something without feeling compelled to specifically tie it to a round number (ie if someone hits 71 dingers in mlb next season, it should obviously be framed as the 2nd-most anyone’s ever hit in a season as opposed to 1 of 3 players to hit 70+, which is obviously undermining the feat)
good morning from the Dorktown slack room
We’re excited to share our new Nature Genetics paper examining the genetic architecture of aortic valve function and aortic stenosis. We used deep learning of cardiac MRI and MTAG to study disease biology long before clinical diagnosis.

Congrats @abarad.bsky.social! You are a rising star in precision nutrition! 🌟
Thrilled to share that I’ve been awarded an AHA Postdoctoral Fellowship! So grateful for the support and honored to have the opportunity to advance my research in precision nutrition for CVD prevention. Huge thanks to my mentor @shoaclarke.bsky.social and collaborators for their guidance! 🫀🧬

Tweet by Jay Bhattacharya: It's the height of irony that the European Commission fined @elonmusk 's @x for not being transparent. The old Twitter handed out blue checks to cronies with no transparency whatsoever. The purpose of the old Twitter blue check system was to suppress dissidents and censor speech. Quote tweets himself saying: Twitter 1.0 placed me on a blacklist & denied me a blue check on the grounds that I am not noteworthy enough. Meanwhile, Twitter 1.0 gave blue checks to every covid alarmist, whatever their credenitals and lack of notoriety. The EU is silencing political opposition.
Imagine you're overseeing the termination of clinical trials, the destruction of people's livelihoods, the dismantling of scientific research in the US, and you're complaining that Twitter didn't give you a blue check 4 years ago.
We are excited to announce EchoPrime is published in Nature. EchoPrime is the first echocardiography AI model capable of evaluating a full transthoracic echocardiogram study, identify the most relevant videos, and produce a comprehensive interpretation!
After two years and thousands of manuscripts, I’ve learned that the real work of an editor isn’t gatekeeping — it’s partnership.

How do GWAS and rare variant burden tests rank gene signals?
In new work @nature.com with @hakha.bsky.social, @jkpritch.bsky.social, and our wonderful coauthors we find that the key factors are what we call Specificity, Length, and Luck!

GPM Symposium Model Systems: Preclinical to Phase I Bridge
Nov 7 12:30-5:15
Learn state-of-the-art systems to bridge therapies from the Preclinical to Phase I trials
Speakers: Kricket Seidman, Joe Wu, Kiran Musunuru, Vicki Parikh, Eric Adler, and more!
Congrats, Satoshi! Your work is incredible! I feel fortunate to get to collaborate with you. Looking forward to seeing your lab grow!
Excited to share that I’m launching a Computational Genetics Lab spanning MGB Personalized Medicine, Cardiovascular Research Center at MGH, @harvardmed.bsky.social, and @broadinstitute.org. Our research focuses on the genetics of common diseases, with a particular emphasis on cardiovascular disease.
ENDORSE! Please can we make MOC make sense?
🤣 Incredible
