1/19 Alright #CardioTwitter, here’s my first series of 2 #Tweetorials, and I’m going to call it: “The Aorta is Not Just a Pipe.” This is Tweetorial #1 focusing on normal aortic function. Tweetorial #2 will focus on abnormal aortic function.

And here’s the @TCTMD article featuring our study: tctmd.com/news/hypertens…
1/ Thrilled to see our work featured in the Go Red edition of @CircAHA !!! This was a labor of ❤️ - conceptualized by @brainheartnexus & I 6+ years ago while sipping ☕️ in my office, then brilliantly executed by @amydjohn who worked diligently and obtained her PhD for this work.

As VP of @NAASociety, I’m proud to support a meeting that brings together world-class researchers, clinicians, and innovators—all advancing the science of arterial health. The future of arterial health and function starts here! Want to be a part? Join @NAASociety today!
THANK YOU to everyone that attended the 2025 North American Artery Conference! What an amazing gathering of speakers, companies and organizations. Stay tuned this week for recaps and more photos! #NAA2025

Our European colleagues were the 1st to formallly recognize the aorta as an organ in their guidelines; and now at @EACTS #AorticForum they unleashed a new subspeciality: Aortology ! As a proud Aortologist, I fully support this! #NotJustAPipe

Red roofs, stone bridges, and a sky that knows how to show off! 🇨🇿 Here to speak at @EACTS #AorticForum , but soaking up Prague before immersing in all things #Aorta for 3 days. ❤️

Official: I’m now a Professor of Medicine! This isn’t just a title - it’s a testament to the mentors who guided me, the collaborators who sharpened me, the mentees who energized me, and the family who supported me before titles mattered. This milestone is ours. Onward!
