This is a very difficult msg for me to type, but it is with deep sadness that I share news regarding the passing of Dr. Gary Lopaschuk, who was not only my mentor, but a dear friend these past 20 years.

Excited to share my work with @DanielJDrucker on the role for GIPR agonism alone and with GLP-1R agonism (@tirzepatide_ ) in the regulation of gut inflammation, and providing new insights on the localization of the GIP receptor in the gut. See paper here: insight.jci.org/articles/vie…
