How do you combine #synbio and #circadianrhythms to protect #cartilage? Check out our work in @ScienceAdvances on clock-preserving circuits that maintain circadian rhythms in the presence of #inflammation - with @annardamato & the Herzog and Meng labs! https://t.co/UYswAEFsUU

Just in case you thought he was done with just one national academy…today our fearless leader @Farsh_G got inducted into the @theNAMedicine!!! #NAE #NAM

[Lara Pferdehirt @LPferdehirt]

Nothing beats seeing your PI, mentor, and friend getting elected into @theNAEng!! Congratulations @Farsh_G!

[National Academy of Engineering @theNAEng]

OFFICIAL: @theNAEng inducts the Class of 2020! We are proud to welcome 86 new members and 18 new international members. Congratulations to this incredible group of engineers!

[Lara Pferdehirt @LPferdehirt]

Thrilled to have met the new @RiceUniversity President @RDesRoches at the #NAE meeting this year! Congratulations on your induction to the class of 2020! @theNAEng

Please join me June 13, 12pm CT for a webinar on my favorite topic:

“I was trained how to do everything but run a lab!”

The lecture is free on the AOCConnect platform. Just register (no cost) as a researcher: https://t.co/u5zNm4F72U & the info will be sent from there. (1/3)

Synthetic gene circuits to support daily #rhythms in cartilage -- a strategy for creating cell-based therapies to preserve the #circadian #clock in the presence of inflammation.

@papersofnote Thanks for highlighting!!

[Annika Reads @papersofnote]

Sometimes recapitulating a system in culture teaches you something new! @LPferdehirt and colleagues engineer mouse iPSCs to create chondrocytes that resist inflammation-induced clock disruption and loss of matrix production. https://t.co/REWlsIurGQ

[Extracellular Matrix News @ExtracellMatrix]

Dr. Lara Pferdehirt (@LPferdehirt), @AnnaRDamato, and Dr. Farshid Guilak's group (@Farsh_G) at @WUSTLmed developed genetically engineered #cartilage from #iPSCs capable of preserving the circadian clock 🕐 in the presence of #inflammation.

[Farshid Guilak @Farsh_G]

Another fun result in @LPferdehirt's & @annardamato's study - stem cells (iPSCs) don't have a circadian rhythm, but as they differentiate to chondrocytes, they develop a 24 hr clock, similar to primary chondrocytes (which will continue to cycle for over a week outside the body!)

[Farshid Guilak @Farsh_G]

So excited for first of several studies in our new area of synthetic #chronogenetics! Amazing work by @LPferdehirt & @annardamato in collaboration with @ErikHerzog & the Meng lab to show that we can use #synbio to prevent loss of circadian rhythms! @ShrinersStLouis @wustlcrm

[Lara Pferdehirt @LPferdehirt]

@DJSchwartzLab Thank you!!

[Erik Herzog @ErikHerzog]

Are you ready to learn about chronogenetics? Read about this cool collaboration with @Farsh_G, @annardamato, @LPferdehirt et al. engineering cells to protect against #osteoarthritis.
