I can’t think of anyone more deserving of this Rising Star Award than Nuru
Beyond his extraordinary scientific contributions, he is genuinely one of the most generous people in IBD. He constantly creates opportunities, gives visibility, and makes space for those of us who may not have the same support or opportunities
He is leading an unprecedented shift in how clinical trials are designed, bringing a level of passion, vision, and endless energy that is truly inspiring
I couldn’t be prouder of him, not only for what he is achieving, but for the way he brings others along with him. So well deserved!

Time to reflect and celebrate #VERDICT
With those who were instrumental in conceiving (@PeyrinBiroulet ) and delivering (@vipuljairath )
Fitting tribute to #ProfFeagan
Thanks to all the patients who participated in this practice changing study

Every IBD drug has a person behind it.
A Swedish professor who designed sulfasalazine for rheumatism.
A chemist who couldn't get a research post, largely because she was a woman, and went on to win a Nobel Prize.
A virologist who left Czechoslovakia for a weekend in Vienna and never went back.
A young Canadian who made the antibody that became vedolizumab, and died fifteen years before it was licensed.
A century of IBD drugs, part 1: the people behind the discoveries. New on Atomic IBD.
Who did I miss?

I don't know why this hasn't received more publicity, but this fifty-foot sculpture was unveiled recently in South Dakota.
It's called 'Dignity' and was done by artist Dale Lamphere to honor the women of the Sioux Nation.
Thank you for liking my post!

If you're missing the World Cup, we present these scenes from Ireland 🏆
Mayo, after 75 years of hurt, a curse and 11 consecutive defeats in the final, are All-Ireland (Gaelic) football champions. Look what it means. This is why we love sports ❤️🔥

On D-Day, 14,000 Canadians landed at Juno Beach, supported by the Royal Canadian Navy and the RCAF. The day saw 1,074 Canadian casualties, including 359 killed. It was a watershed moment in human history.
Here are some of the Canadian stories from that day.

Several soldiers wear helmets and heavy gear, with some facing forward toward rough water and a distant naval vessel. The backs of soldiers near the bow show markings on their jackets. Waves rise along the side of the craft as it moves through the water.

Everyone at Irish Rugby is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of former Ireland captain Fergus Slattery.
Our thoughts are with Fergus' family, friends and former team-mates at this sad time.
Dr Dermot McGovern retweeted
Today we mourn the loss of a true Lions legend, Fergus Slattery.
A family man, a valued friend, and one of the 1974 Invincibles, Fergus was an inspiration both on and off the pitch.
Our thoughts are with his loved ones at this difficult time.
Rest in peace, Fergus 🕊️

This Memorial Day, I want to honor someone who wasn’t American, but a British colleague and brother-in-arms—Eddie Collins of the SAS. He died in my arms south of Baghdad on September 5, 2007, from a gunshot wound to the neck during a classified operation under Task Force Knight.
Rest easy, brother. You were a warrior, a hero, and you won’t be forgotten.
