@UTSWScience @TheDouglasLab @UTSWMolBiol Great video of our own Peter Douglas!

[UTSW Science @UTSWScience]

Step inside a day in the life of @TheDouglasLab, as he studies the long-term effects of brain injuries. Explore his lab and see how scientists like him are driving progress - just in time for the @UTSWMolBiol 30th anniversary celebration: https://t.co/hGV7vdnZzI

Exciting new study from @StefiVargasA and @MiaoCui_713 ! At the crossroads of regeneration, cardiology and immunology!

[Stefi Vargas @StefiVargasA]

Extremely happy to share our latest work from the
@Transactivator lab! We show that the immunosuppressive PD-1/PD-L1 pathway is active in neonatal mouse hearts and required for regeneration 🫀Huge thanks to co-author @MiaoCui_713 and all other authors! https://t.co/oVeVBnRgrv
