🔎 Regular eGFR & uACR testing is key for early CKD detection. This enables timely intervention that may help slow progression. Yet less than 40% of adults with diabetes get the recommended yearly kidney tests. Let’s make routine monitoring a priority for better kidney health!

My pleasure to come on Dwarkesh last week, I thought the questions and conversation were really good. I re-watched the pod just now too. First of all, yes I know, and I'm sorry that I speak so fast :). It's to my detriment because sometimes my speaking thread out-executes my

Talk to robots! Today we're releasing our SOTA Gemini Robotics 1.5 model showing the power of using our multimodal Gemini models as a base, so it can understand & reason about the physical world. Robotics will be massive in the future - super excited by our pioneering work here!
We’re making robots more capable than ever in the physical world. 🤖 Gemini Robotics 1.5 is a levelled up agentic system that can reason better, plan ahead, use digital tools such as @Google Search, interact with humans and much more. Here’s how it works 🧵

Where does aldosterone actually do its work? In the aldosterone-sensitive distal nephron (ASDN): DCT2, CNT, and the collecting duct. The control room for Na⁺ balance and K⁺ homeostasis. (Follow the thread 🧵) #Nephpearls #Nephrology #Physiology
