Very happy with how this publication turned out. Many thanks to the collaborators and the @psatolab! Cardioprotective effect of genetic ablation of the G-protein-coupled receptor kinase GRK2 in adult pancreatic β-cells during high-fat diet - Journal of Biological Chemistry
A fascinating study of over 348 mammalian species reveals that patterns of a chemical on DNA called "methylation" can predict a species' gestation time & maximum lifespan. Could these epigenetic differences explain why mice live 2.5 years, humans 80, and whales 200, and can they…

Discovery of novel therapeutic nanobodies from natural nanobody-producing species is a costly and time-intensive process. To de-risk the process of nanobody discovery, we’ve engineered a fully human nanobody mouse model as a more feasible alternative👉biocytogen.com/webinar/maximi…
Genetically modified animal models are trusted tools for answering important research questions. However, current methods for generating such models can trigger off-target modifications. Check out our QC method- the use of southern blot analysis👉biocytogen.com/gene-targeting… #crispr

We had a wonderful day at #Discoveryday23 , amazing posters, platform presentations and an inspiring keynote presentation. Our own @KatelynReeb got the first place award for best poster, amazing! @DrexelMedicine @DrexelPharmPhys
This week I successfully defended my PhD thesis! Thank you so much to the @psatolab, @DrexelPharmPhys, and my friends and family! I would also like to thank Dr. Walter Patton and @LVCBCMB who gave me a research opportunity 9 years ago that led here.


Incredibly proud of @JSnyder_Sci for his PhD thesis defense!!! Congratulations Jon! @DrexelPharmPhys @DrexelMedicine

Excited to share our organoid model of vascularized stem cell islets. Great teamwork led by @KVyNguyenNgoc and Yesl Jun. Thanks to @someshtweet, @HughesLabUCI, @steven_c_george, @ChristmanLab, @Hugh_Bender, @KravetsVira, @HIRN_CC . 1/4 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
What a week! Not only did I get married to my best friend, love of my life of 12 years 🥰, but I also published my first solo author paper: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…. Psychiatric polypharmacy is something I care deeply about and couldn’t be happier that I can finally share this.
Last week was awesome! We received a R56. Excited to continue “sciencing”. Extremely grateful to be part of this amazing team @JSnyder_Sci and Twitter-less Ruxu Zhai and Sarah Montgomery. From the wise Ted Lasso: Believe!!! 🔬
