Excited to share this new review on the interplay between circadian clocks and the HIF pathway! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Excited to share our latest paper published in PNAS! We explored the role of BMAL1-HIF in metabolic adaptation to diet-induced obesity. A huge thank you to our collaborators and the talented DGP student, Claire Chaikin @shakinchaikin! Check it out here: pnas.org/doi/abs/10.107…
Thrilled to share that our paper is out today on the role of circadian stem cell–immune crosstalk during muscle regeneration. 🎉 Huge congrats to @zhupeij for leading this study, and a big thank you to our collaborators, including #notwitterNav science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
We found that prednisone promotes glucose oxidation and diastolic function in murine heart, hinging on the drug circadian time-of-intake and the cardiomyocyte-autonomous GR-KLF15 co-transactivation response. Check out our paper @JCI_insight shorturl.at/KhDWs
We had a fantastic Midwest Metabolism Meeting in Chicago! Thank you to all speakers, poster presenters, and attendees. We are grateful to the @LurieCancer @LeonidasPlatan1 and @NUFeinbergMed for supporting this event! Thanks to my co-chairs #NoTwitterNav and @clara_peek!

Thanks Karyn! We are very excited about this project which is the culmination of a lot of work by the talented Pei Zhu @zhupeij in my group. Also involved a cool collaboration with Nav Chandel's group and collaborators at the Shirley Ryan Ability lab
Congratulations to my esteemed friend and mentor, Nav Chandel, on your well-deserved Lurie Prize!
