Diagnosis of rare, genetic muscle disease improved by new approach
#WashUMed researchers have developed an approach that could help doctors distinguish between the many subtypes of limb girdle muscular dystrophy, a rare, genetic muscle disease.

New pre-print from the lab! We performed quantitative proteomics in iPSC-derived motor neurons with p97 R155H mutation that causes ALS and MSP-1 and found lysophagy defects. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… Congrats to @jay_clicks Thanks @jmaglab @LabWeihl @GygiLab

A patient from Charleston, SC gave me a list of his favorite restaurants when he learned that I will be attending the #WMS2023 in Charleston! I thought I should share this with @WorldMuscleSoc members.

So proud of these amazing young physician scientists investigating how racism manifests in the clinic (Drs. Mysti Harrison and Jackie Bhattarai) and digging into more rare but significant neuroimmune disorder (@MariaIReyesMan1).

I have a very important ceremony coming up. This will be my first time out since diagnosed with MS. Walking sticks are now part of my new normal. Thank you @neowalksticks for these beauties. Stay tuned to see which ones make the cut for a week of stuff.

In our first #GrandRounds of the year, Stefanie Geisler, MD, discussed the latest advances in #chemotherapy induced neuropathy. She and colleagues identified a key pathway #SARM1 that is now a target for drug development.
