My labs tell the story:
📆 June 25, Aug 12, Sept 5 = transfusions.
Talzenna-induced anemia isn’t iron deficiency.
It’s marrow suppression, showing up as pancytopenia on CBC.

Two anemias, two mechanisms, two treatments:
🩸 Iron deficiency = low raw materials → give iron.
💊 Bone marrow suppression = broken factory → transfusion/supportive care.
Mechanism matters.

CA 15-3 is a tumor marker used to track breast cancer activity over time—not for diagnosis, but for seeing how things are trending.

Here’s a chart of my CA 15-3 levels from the past several months.

👀 What do you see?

Yesterday I gave the keynote at the Michigan Society for Neuroscience meeting. I shared my science, my story—and stood in awe as the room gave me a standing ovation.

Then I learned there’s now a graduate student award in my name.

Still speechless. Deeply honored. Forever grateful. #MiSfN

🚨 NIH indirect cost cuts—what’s at stake?

A new executive order caps reimbursements at 15%—down from an average 52%.

Indirect costs fund lab upkeep, IT, and utilities—essential for research.

Fewer resources = fewer labs, jobs, and slower innovation.

Santa, if you’re reading this, forget the cookies. Just bring me a Costco-sized pack of these bad boys and maybe a stomach that stops being such a diva. Merry Cracker-Mas to all, and to all a good bite! 🎅🎄🤢
