Tremendously proud to share my fellowship work, online today in @NatureMedicine. We tried to understand why CAR T therapy for AML doesn't work as well as we hoped it would, and how we can solve that. 👇🧵1/10

Senator-Elect Annie Andrews: I want to hold RFK Jr. accountable for the damage that he has done to America’s public health system. He is the reason that Spartanburg County, South Carolina had a measles outbreak just last year. He has done grave damage to trust in the public health system in America and he needs to be held accountable, and I think no one is better prepared to do that than me — a pediatrician with 20 years of experience practicing.

"I don’t want Jared Kushner to be investigated because he’s the president’s son-in-law. I want him investigated because he’s potentially laundered and embezzled $2 billion dollars in funds from the governments of Saudi Arabia and the UAE. I don’t want Stephen Miller investigated because he’s a racist ghoul who’s at the center of the Trump brain trust. I want him investigated because he’s a racist ghoul who has violated the due-process rights of millions of people and, potentially, directly violated court orders. I don’t want Pete Hegseth investigated because he’s a toxic psychopath who is unqualified to lead America’s military forces. I want him investigated because he’s a fucking murderer who needs to spend the rest of his life in jail, either in this country or The Hague." thenation.com/article/politi…

The party that elevates Kyle Rittenhouse, a 17 yr old killer, & tears down Gus Walz, a 17 yr old with special needs who loves his dad, is a party that needs to be lit on fire & thrown in the dumpster & plunged into the deepest depths of the ocean never to be seen again.

This is what I've been saying since the beginning.
They've stolen time from us. They've stolen the opportunity to see things that will never be achieved or accomplished in our lives because They've set everything back so far.theyve stolen so much from us all.
Bury them.

if your takeaway from the last 24 hours is “americans want to reach across the aisle” you are wholly and completely unfit to represent the democratic party
the message america sent last night was that they are DONE with this iteration of the republican party, full stop

The big lesson of the Biden years is that you have to prosecute these people. You can’t just move on. You need to make the next generation of grifters and hate mongers scared for their lives.

Several figures here aren’t federal results or NY-specific. The $472B combines US wide pledges: Micron's $250B is nationwide (NY site $100B) Anthropic's $50B covers TX and NY. The 48% murder drop is from NY's state run GIVE program (28 departments, Jan – May 2026).

1/12 Excited to share our new study, out today in @NatureGenet on clonal hematopoiesis (CH) & cytopenias after CAR19 therapy. Led by Mark Hamilton and team with David Miklos and @max_diehn. How do blood-cell clones evolve after CAR T vs conventional cytotoxic Rx?

Some of my colleagues think things will just “blow over” and “it’s not that bad”. This @nytimes article starts to reveal the deep wounds this govt has (self)inflicted on the research engines that have driven US innovation. All I can say is VOTE next week! nytimes.com/2026/10/31/clima…

Insurance companies should be liable for malpractice if they want to make medical decisions.
Insurance rep: “Your claim was denied.”
Me: “Why?”
Insurance rep: “The procedure wasn’t medically necessary.”
Me: “My doctor ordered it.”
Insurance rep: “Yes.”
Me: “A specialist agreed.”
Insurance rep: “Yes.”
Me: “So who decided it wasn’t necessary?”
Insurance rep: “Our review team.”
Me: “Are they doctors?”
Insurance rep: “I don’t have that information.”
The bill was $3,260.
I pay them $428 every month.
Apparently I’m paying $5,136 a year so someone I’ve never met can overrule the doctor standing in front of me.
Very reassuring system.
It's been a big few days for the lab. First, we got our first freezers. Second, we wrote a review on AML CAR T cells (with a focus on pediatric data) with Swati Naik at St. Jude.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days.
ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.
The brand new Bhagwat lab is hiring! First posting is for a post doc excited about AML, the immune system, and how the two interact. Please share this posting with anyone interested, or apply if you are. temporary-url.com/58BFD
