Man of you know that my father was a PKD patient and a particular inspiration for my work. He was also an astronomer, and would have loved seeing this beautiful eclipse. I'm pleased that I was able to experience 4/8/2024 w/ family and friends. ENDPKD... dedicated to my father.
Thanks @ASNKidney for hosting a great meeting week and also for the opportunity to present!
A little cold and windy as the original ENDPKD shirt makes its appearance on Kit Carson (L summit photo) and Challenger Point (R summit photo). Don't forget to support your local Walk for PKD @PKDFoundation
and team "Renal Avengers" @KUJGKI

KC's Walk for PKD to support PKD research is on 9/9. Please support team "Renal Avengers" by donating here: support.pkdcure.org/give/473…
To warm-up I'll be attempting the twin 14K ft summits of Challenger/Kit Carson (photo credit 14ers.com). @PKDFoundation @KUJGKI
I'll have more to say at the Grantham Symposium in September, but for now please join me in wishing Jim Calvet - my mentor, colleague, and friend - a long and happy retirement! @PKDFoundation @PkdResearch @KUJGKI
Thanks @PKDFoundation for giving me the opportunity to present the latest from the Parnell lab at this year's PKDCON... and to model the original ENDPKD shirt at a new location!

There are some really exciting things happening in genetic medicines for cystic diseases! According to these three experts 🙌🏻 #PKDCON2023
The original END PKD shirt makes stops at White Sands and Carlsbad Caverns... where will it go next?

Researchers, we are gauging interest for a #mousemodel that would use proximity labeling, like a BioID tag, to identify potential interactors of polycystin 1 in vivo. Are you in favor?

Thanks, @Kidney_Int, for featuring our article on your cover (wanna buy 5 copies for my mother). We showed that BRAF activity exacerbates PKD, but also that increased BRAF activity is SUFFICIENT to cause cystic disease in normal kidneys. @DarrenPWallace
