I’m sorry but if your students use AI to write papers and you use AI to grade them zero school is happening. You are running together on a hamster wheel

1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000%!!!

If you use AI during your degree then your degree is completely worthless.

This isn't even close to what America has lost. It is alone. No friends. Nobody will ever trust it again. Every interaction with other countries will be transactional. There is no goodwill. You will pay and pay and pay and we will all be poorer.

Opinion | A Day of American Infamy A dreadful moment for Ukraine, for the free world, for the legacy of an America that once stood for the principles of the Atlantic Charter.

“If Roosevelt had told Churchill to sue for peace on any terms with Adolf Hitler and to fork over Britain’s coal reserves to the United States in exchange for no American security guarantees, it might have approximated what Trump did to Zelensky.”

To help master apolipoprotein B, please obtain the very recent NLA Statement on apoB as well as these earlier statements to see how long the experts (clinicians and laboratorians) knew apoB was the critical metric. Anyone practicing CV care should be very familiar with these documents.

It’s not ageing, it’s ageism. If we all want to look forward to an older age without limits, we need to notice it, challenge it, change it.

Does hearing about ageism shock you?

Research has found that multi-generational teams are more productive and innovative, and we know that older workers bring incredible value to workplaces.

Structure of apoB & its binding to LDLR has been solved thanks to the NIH lipid team, led by Alan Remaley & Mart Reimund. ApoB consists of beta sheet & alpha domains, which firmly bind to LDL. 2 LDL receptors act as dimers to remove two LDL particles. www.nature.com/articles/s41569-025-01128-z

The great @nih_nhlbi division of lipids/vascular biology has radically changed what we have believed: For hepatic LDL clearance from plasma to occur, TWO LDL particles aggregate with the help of TWO LDL receptors functioning as dimers and then internalization occurs. doi.org/10.1038/s415...
