1) By legislating a ban on Gain of Function Research (GOFR) in Florida, what are you advocating and promoting with regard to #biomedical research really DeSantis? #science
2) Are you legislating that only medical research in the state of Florida will be farther removed alternatives such as single-protein or replication-incompetent virus in vitro studies, in silico modeling,…
3) or further removed long-term genetic sequence comparison of samples collected from patients are under increasingly intense investigation to replace GOFR? #biomedical #research

🧵1/12: Writing your first case report can be a rewarding experience as it allows you to contribute to medical literature and showcase your clinical expertise. Here's a step-by-step guide to get you started! #CaseReport #MedEd #MedTwitter
🧵2/12: Start by selecting an interesting or unique case that adds value to the presentation, diagnosis, or treatment of a condition. The case should provide new insights or challenge existing knowledge. #MedicalWriting #CaseSelection
🧵3/12: Look at existing literature for similar cases. If there are less than 20 cases reported on PubMed, it's a good indication that your case might be worth sharing. A thorough literature review is essential for a successful case report. #PubMed #LiteratureReview
👉Join us at 11am today for this important conversation as #California prepares to review eligibility for millions of #MediCal recipients. We'll be speaking with experts and health care practitioners about what this could mean. Follow the livestream: ethnicmediaservices.org/media-briefing…
Welcome to today's briefing sponsored by @DHCS_CA and organized by EMS and @CaliforniaBlac2. We'll be looking at who is at risk for being disenrolled from #MediCal under California's "great unwinding," and what people can do to get ready.
Our first speaker is Yingjia Huang, Assistant Deputy Director, Department of Health Care Services. April began the renewal process for 15 million MediCal recipients, says Huang. The process had been suspended during the #Covid pandemic.

Mitochondria are essential to our overall health and well-being. In addition to producing energy, they regulate many critical processes in the body. (1/11) #mitochondria #energy #health
Mitochondria play a key role in the production and regulation of neurotransmitters. They also help produce key hormones like cortisol, estrogen, and testosterone. (2/11) #mitochondria #hormones #neurotransmitters #neurotwitter

A 29-year-old male presented with a 6-month history of progressive painless skin lesions over his face, back, trunk, and limbs. He had no systemic symptoms such as night sweats or weight loss.
Skin biopsy showed diffuse dermal infiltrate with blast-like cells extending to the hypodermis. Immunohistochemical analysis showed cells that were positive for CD4, CD56, and CD123.
