Pastoralism remains central to survival in the Turkana of northwest Kenya, where heat and water scarcity pose constant challenges. New research uncovers the genetic signatures that underlie adaptation to arid living in this pastoralist community.

Big thanks to our collaborators at @VUMChealth (including co-first author @KAmancherla and Dr. Ravi Shah) and @TGen (@NeBanovich) for making this study possible! This is just the beginning — stay tuned for more insights into cardiac allograft rejection. 14/15

1/2 Scientists at TGen are making important strides in understanding fibrotic lung disease by using image-based spatial transcriptomics to identify how molecular changes are associated with distal lung remodeling in pulmonary fibrosis.

Then afterward, come see me in Ballroom C at 11:45 to talk ~spatial~ for alveolar niches in pulmonary fibrosis and see cool figures like this:

Come see my lab mate @HeiniMNatri speak at #ASHG23 in about an hour - Heini always gives compelling talks, and this one on single cell RNA-seq for glioma is no exception!
