Today is 3 years since we lost my good friend Andy Tager. Andy was an inspirational physician scientist working to eliminate #IPF and #HIV. I’d appreciate your memories of Andy. Tagging @KaminskiMed @IPFdoc @rsknipe and I hope you tag others 1/8
Andy got me interested in developing molecular probes for lung imaging. His enthusiasm and optimism stays with me. His messages were punctuated with multiple exclamation points !!! and I first thought “What’s with the faux optimism?” 2/8
But that was Andy. So excited about science and its potential for transforming lives. Sharing new data was like Christmas morning with a 5 year old – he couldn’t wait to see the data. Like all good scientists he saw positive or negative results as revealing the full story. 3/8
Good morning! I will be “live tweeting” (not sure streaming is considered live) #ATS2020 #D85 ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURES AND THE AIRWAY MICROBIOME. #Thread (1/?)
First up, Traffic-Related Air Pollution, Host Defense, and Effects on the Airway Microbiome. Christopher Carlsten, MD, MPH. UBC, Vancouver, BC, Canada.
I will be “live tweeting” about #ATS2020 #B2 WHEN CF BECOMES NON-CF BRONCHIECTASIS: THE ONGOING BATTLE AGAINST INFECTION IN CYSTIC FIBROSIS DURING THE CFTR-MODULATOR ERA. (I'm not yelling the ATS program is) #Thread
First up, Mara Cray a 24yo CF patient discusses her perspective. (I hope they put this up for even non-attendees as I can not do it justice via twitter. Sorry twitter) She Has been on several modulators with wonderful results.
She is doing much better but still has exacerbations and recently had ABPA. The asthmatic components of CF are “primally stressful” because of how acute they are and how uncomfortable they are.
