Thank you for the shoutout @DrKimEBarrett ! It was a pleasure to share my work and that of my colleagues on the fascinating multimodal sensory enteroendocrine cells from the #GribbleReimannLab at @IMS_MRL and @BeyderLab at @ENSP_mayo #Gutsensing
Super talk from Dr. C. Alcaino, formerly of @BeyderLab, now in Cambridge, illuminating the wonderful world of enteroendocrine cells, including their mechanical sensitivity #IUPS2025

Recent work from our lab explored the role of multiple nuclear receptors in the human small #intestine. Using #organoids and small molecules, we activated and then studied one nuclear receptor at the time through transcriptome characterization. https://t.co/DtD0iWurgL

Grateful for the opportunity to break the silence on receptive anal intercourse. Big thanks to my co-authors, @NatRevGastroHep, and especially @heykatray for making this possible.
Out for #DDW2024 @DanielDickstein & colleagues review pleasurable and problematic receptive anal intercourse in #gastrointestinal disease & cancer - the disease itself & its management can affect RAI and it’s important to counsel patients on sexual health https://t.co/kH6aUoT6FN
