I mean, who doesn’t think AP-1 is a central player? We agree 😁
Apparently it's AP-1 controls cellular memory week. Congrats @chris_cowley14 ! I guess I convinced you AP-1 is so interesting that you never need to work on anything else again...

Minus the ‘and providers’ yes, you are correct.
If we fined insurers and providers $100 every time they over-billed, incorrectly denied care or misrepresented any amount of patient out of pocket, we could pay of the national debt
They play on the fear and information asymmetry that exists in healthcare
Break them up. Make them divest non insurance companies. And when we are done with the insurance companies , we go to the hospitals and then to the pharma wholesalers. Break em up. Make the markets efficient again.

New Cell paper from the team that discovered glymphatic clearance (how your brain removes waste during sleep).
Sleep hours DIDN'T predict brain cleaning. Neither did REM or deep sleep.
They found what actually matters - and why some sleeping pills might undermine it 🧵

Thanks for the shout out!
The @JABLab3 led by Jen Alexander-Brett, MD, PhD, @WashUMedPCCM analyzed COPD biospecimens released from cells into the airways. Findings help uncover cellular processes that drive chronic inflammation, tissue damage, and poor lung function.
