Also worth noting this was a complete game shutout - a Maddux, as the kids say.

Tarik Skubal is not human. 103 mph strikeout to cap his first career complete game. @tigers.bsky.social #Detroit #GrittyTigs

Tariff on the new microCT we purchased will be somewhere between 0 and 32%. Cool. Cool, cool.

Somebody let the @tigers.bsky.social stay hot!

Javier Baez making a strong case for @mlb.com Comeback Player of the Year! #Detroit #Tigers

Another fantastic @henryfordhealth.bsky.social Research Symposium in the books! Inspiring to hear about all of the awesome research from across the campus. Equally amazing to hear from @boneybonebone.bsky.social of the Yeni Lab @hfhs-bjc.bsky.social talking about facet joint measurement via DTS!

I honestly can't wait until Gen Z starts naming the horses in the #KentuckyDerby.

Riley. Greene. That is all. #Detroit #Tigers

Tarik Skubal and the @tigers.bsky.social are going to get me through 2025.

The #Detroit @tigers.bsky.social with a dominating performance against the Twins today. Jackson Jobe was a menace on the mound and Tork continues to lead with his bat.

K1 sent pics below of the 🇳🇱 flagged Iver Bright tanker (left) and the 989 ft. M/V American Century diesel-powered freighter (right) while fishing on the St. Clair River.

A new manuscript acceptance was a much needed win this week. So grateful to work with smart people! More to come on the accepted manuscript once proofs are up. For now, I'll just say that it is pretty cool that we can convince cells to go to specific places...like the #rotatorcuff maybe?

With the @tigers.bsky.social home opener less than two weeks away, it's time to channel Sparky Anderson. #GrittyTigers #Detroit

Great paper from @boneybonebone.bsky.social of the Yeni Lab in the @hfhs-bjc.bsky.social. DTS could be very useful for understanding facet joint loading associated with spondyloarthropathies, or even new interbody or interspinous spacer devices! #Orthosky #Spine

Grateful to be a (very) small part of such an amazing study! All credit to the awesome @amandality.bsky.social and her team for this important #osteoarthritis discovery just published in @naturecomms.bsky.social. The miR-evolution is now!

Gracie often embodies Monday vibes.

A very Detroit end to day spent helping some neighbors. Spotted this pheasant pair just off Kercheval and Field. (Sorry for the poor quality)

ACL rupture frequently leads to post-traumatic osteoarthritis. We previously showed that ACL rupture disrupts conversion of Tryptophan (Trp) to Kynurenine (Kyn). Injecting IDO-1 into the knee after ACL rupture we restore Trp -> Kyn...and downstream Kyn metabolites! More on these later!

Our folks just sent pictures of the St. Clair River in East China, Michigan. Lots of ice piling up and the CGC Mackinaw cutting a path.

Was great to be back at @michigantech.bsky.social and hanging in the Keweenaw Peninsula again for a few days!

We knew during training camp that the @detroitlions.bsky.social would be Kings of the North again this season!! #OnePride #Detroit

That is a whole lot of wires and boards for some nugget ice. File under: reasons I didn't become an EE.

We all prepare for the @detroitlions.bsky.social game in different ways. I prefer a Saison Dètroit (from Brewery Faisan in Detroit) and the dog prefers the fireplace.

Took advantage of the unseasonable weather today and went fishing with the whole family on the Huron River in Ann Arbor. No fish but plenty of fresh air and sunshine!

Time to get the new printer up and running for the boys!

The 1,013.5 ft. M/V Paul R. Tregurtha was anchored just offshore in East China, Michigan on the St. Clair River today. Longest #freighter on the #GreatLakes!

I love the random, amazing stuff one can find walking around Detroit...like this awesome firetruck in Corktown!
