ACS Clowes Award recipient Dr. Tammy Kindel is helping uncover significant extended benefits after bariatric surgery. Her project focuses on understanding how bariatric surgery improves heart function in patients with obesity-related heart failure. brnw.ch/21wSGq4
My newest paper: Multiple data sets for semaglutide and MASH. Semaglutide may reverse the proteomic signature in people with MASH. No measurable GLP-1 receptor in the liver. rdcu.be/ew8oR
Thanks to the Endocrine Society for the invitation. Bariatric surgery is the most efficacious treatment for obesity. Because of the discontinuation rates of GLP-1RA and the increase in prevalence of Stage 3 obesity, I think bariatric surgery will continue to have a role.
Great session examining the role of glucagon and glucagon signaling in metabolic disease! #ENDO2025


🚨 GLP-1s vs Surgery: Who Wins Long Term? - - - A new 2-year comparative study from NYU Langone just dropped—and the results are clear: 📊 Bariatric Surgery vs GLP-1s (semaglutide/tirzepatide): 🔹 25.7% total body weight loss with surgery vs 5.3% with GLP-1s (intention-to-treat)…

.@UMichMedSchool professor Nadejda Bozadjieva Kramer has dedicated her career to studying obesity and metabolic dysfunction, conditions that disproportionately affect veterans and increase their risk of diabetes, heart disease and other chronic illnesses. myumi.ch/rA864
Great to meet with @RepDebDingell to advocate for science and @NIH, @NSF and @DeptVetAffairs research funding at the @APSPhysiology Capitol Hill Day. New breakthroughs in biomedical research depend on strong federal support! #APSHillDay2025
🇺🇦 Ukraine, be brave, be strong. We stand by you. 🇧🇬🇪🇺
3 years of war in Ukraine. Supporting Ukraine is not only a matter of solidarity, but also upholding the principles of sovereignty & territorial integrity. We stand firm w/🇺🇦& its people, reaffirming that lasting and just peace based on int/ law will prevail. #StandWithUkraine️
Any attempt to division of Europe weakens us. We need an EU response not because of the influence, but because of our founding principles. This can only happen with an immediate summit between the US, EU countries and allies, where all points of view are frankly put on the table.

A comparison of out-of-pocket costs for Ozempic vs. sleeve gastrectomy in patients with obesity and T2D shows surgery has higher upfront costs but is significantly cheaper by year two. Financial and medical factors are key in treatment decisions. journals.lww.com/annalsofsurger…
The scientist who is responsible for driving GLP-1 drugs for the treatment of obesity and testing them for prevention of Alzheimer's disease—Lotte Bjerre Knudsen— tells her story in a remarkable conversation. Full transcript, or video, all free, no ads. Link in my profile,…
Exciting visit to Denver for the Colorado NORC Retreat!

GLP1RA drugs are increasing in their popularity to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity. U-M Health researchers @nbkramer and @seeleyrj investigate the drug's ability to treat another diabetes symptom, high iron levels. michmed.org/md8m9
If you’re applying for a big-time science grant, you want big-time science brains behind you. That’s what CBATS chalk talks are all about. Here's @nbkramer getting feedback from faculty like @timofran1, residents and students whose questions informed her specific aims.
