GuoHuangLab(黄果实验室)@UCSF #Open postdoc position
@GuonHuang
Biologist studying tissue regeneration in development and evolution. Associate Professor at University of California San Francisco.
We're recruiting postdocs interested in regenerative biology and extreme physiology! Join us to study non-model mammalian species and rare human individuals to uncover groundbreaking insights. #RegenerativeBiology #ExtremePhysiology @ISRBio @AHAMeetings @SocDevBio @EvoDevoPanAm

We’re excited to share our recent study published in @CellCellPress! In this work, we show that brain endothelial cells, connected by gap junctions, form a signaling highway to enable fast, long-range arterial vasodilation in neurovascular coupling. cell.com/cell/fulltext/…
Join us for the 2025 Bay Area Cardiovascular Symposium on August 14-15, 2025 10 AM – 5 PM, Berg Hall, Li Ka Shing Center More Info & Registration: tinyurl.com/CVRS2025 Partnering with @Stanford, @GladstoneInst, @SJSU, @ucdavis, and @UCSF.
Can't miss session at Scientific Sessions 2025! Register today.
All new NIH funding opportunities moving forward should incorporate New Approach Methodologies, a suite of modern alternatives including computer modeling, AI and ‘organs-on-a-chip’ technologies. “NIH will no longer seek proposals exclusively for animal models.”

I read this Cell paper that argues to have discovered a molecule (betaine) that mimics the geroprotective effects of exercise. This is a very valuable multi-omics resource, but the authors seemed to get caught in the rabbit hole of chasing a high-impact narrative🧵
Excited to grow our team! The Tissue Morpho and Mechanics Lab at Hopkins is seeking a full-time Lab Technologist (50% lab tech + 20% lab manager + 30% scientist) to support our research in developmental biology and biomechanics 🐸🖖🔬🧪🫵
Congratulations Hanna Martens and @ishahjain at UCSF and Gladstone! 2025 Freeman Hrabowski Scholars | HHMI hhmi.org/programs/freem…
My lab at @WeizmannScience was completely demolished by the Iranian missile a few days ago. This is hard and sad as nothing was left to save. We study heart regeneration and regenerative medicine. As such, we will regenerate, regrow and rebuild. The one thing that wasn't gone is…
New paper from the lab: Our teeth arose as sensory organs on the outside of the body of ancient jawless fish.!! Congrats to Yara Haridy and the team! Open Access Paper: nature.com/articles/s4158… News and Views: nature.com/articles/d4158… Background and video: phys.org/news/2025-05-t…
Research | Lei et al. show that cold preservation of heart transplants triggers mineralocorticoid receptor clustering in cardiomyocyte nuclei, and blocking this improves heart transplant function. doi.org/10.1038/s44161… rdcu.be/enbAz
We are looking for a research assistant to join the lab and work on spatial genomics. Please help spread the word—thanks! careersearch.stanford.edu/jobs/life-scie…
🚨Preprint alert!🚨 Why do high-altitude populations have lower rates of metabolic syndrome and lower blood glucose? Superstar postdoc Yolanda tackled this❓tinyurl.com/2x7ptyn8 @GladstoneInst @arcinstitute @UCSF #hypoxia #oxygen
Our lab has identified a new epigenetic mechanism and a druggable target in #HFpEF. Extremely thankful to my amazing team and our fantastic collaborators! @CircRes @UZH_en @Unispital_USZ @CTECresearch @PaneniLab ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI…
Our new review on why some hearts heal and others don’t. Led on our gifted postdoc @Makoto3173.
"Why Some Hearts Heal and Others Don’t: The Phylogenetic Landscape of Cardiac Regenerative Capacity" is now published in Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology. Let's explore the evolutionary perspective on cardiac regeneration 🫀👇 🔗 authors.elsevier.com/a/1kvpS3si8Q0a… @GuonHuang Lab
New data suggests that individuals whose mothers conceived during cold seasons exhibit higher BAT activity, adaptive thermogenesis, increased daily total energy expenditure and lower body mass index and visceral fat accumulation @naturemetabolism nature.com/articles/s4225…
Proud to share our latest @CellCellPress paper. We present a novel immune population termed PNS microglia that regulate neuronal soma size throughout evolution. cell.com/cell/abstract/… #Microglia#PNS#NeuronalSomaSize#Macrophage#BodySize#Neuroimmunology#Evolution (1/8)
Thread of natural sources of different medications. We can thank the Gila Monster for modern GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic
An incredible tour de force in biochemistry and cell biology by superstar @RobertoZoncu lab postdoc @aakritijain24 LyLAP - a new lysosomal protease responsible for degrading integral membrane proteins in highly phagocytic cells like #PDAC cells. 🙌✨ science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
A fish specialist position in Nakamura lab is still open. Great opportunity to learn fish husbandry, genetics, and evodevo with zebrafish, skates, and some other unique fish. Thanks RT!!
As Elaina is successfully moving to a master school of E&E this spring, we are looking for a fish specialist/lab tech. If you are interested in this position, contact me. Thank you for RT!! nakamuralab.com @RutgersU @RutgersSASDLS #Teamfish #evodevo
📣 RFA is out! We are excited about our partnership and looking forward to this Summer! @HonorsUAB: join our interest session this Friday! @UABCardiology
