Research Pinnacle

I read something yesterday that made me feel like I've made it in the research world:

"Autophagy has been observed in failing myocardium caused by dilated cardiomyopathy, by valvular disease, and by ischemic heart disease."

One year ago I would have read that and thought "what?" It feels real good to read through that without skipping a beat. Who knows, I might just be a doctor yet.

  1. That is impressive. It would take me two years to understand that!

  2. Peniscus...hahaha, pretty funny. I saw the doc today. It's chrondromalacia. He embarassed me by doing tests for my weak hips. Off to PT and an easy fix. You were right about the meniscus.
