Very thrilled to receive the Mechanobiology Early Career Award from @BiophysicalSoc this year. Sincere thanks to the Mechanobiology Subgroup and the award committee 🌹
In memory of Mike Sheetz 🕯️

Excited to be interviewed by @utmbnews twice 😉 regarding our new microfluidic technology that evaluates arterial thrombotic risks.

[Yunfeng Chen @YunfengChen2]

@GuyNir5 Thanks!

[Yunfeng Chen @YunfengChen2]

We are excited to have our new work published on Nature Communications. We developed a platform to better understand biomechanical thrombogenesis, and unraveled a new mechanism of how HTN and aging increase CVD risks.

📢Shout out to Dr. Chen et al! 🎉Excited to announce their new publication in Nature titled "Multi-parametric thrombus profiling microfluidics detects intensified biomechanical thrombogenesis associated with hypertension and aging." Check it out...

We used single-molecule force spectroscopy and MD/MC simulation to discover and explain distinctive mechanosensitivity of integrins α5β1 and αVβ3 in conformational changes @YunfengChen2 Read it here 🔗 https://t.co/VCo6QFkFrs

2023 #isth congress in Montreal 🇨🇦
Super exciting new discoveries of the HT field!👏👏👏
Many thanks to @Bark_Lab for inviting me to introduce our work in Biorheology Session. It was thrilling to meet with all other scientists on blood flow and vascular health. 💪💪💪

@DrJuneJD @PepperOAIC Thanks again!
You are a fabulous mentor💡🎉❤️

[Yunfeng Chen @YunfengChen2]

It was a lovely experience at OAIC 2023 conference. Learnt a lot more than expected. Matched up with a fantastic mentor: @DrJuneJD 🎉🎉🎉❤️❤️❤️ For the first time I started to feel confident that my research will really make a difference to elder people’s health and life.

Hi all, I’m invited by Frontiers in Medical Technology to serve as the editor for special topic:

Inspirations and strategies of mechano-medicine development

We welcome any work at the interface of mechanobiology, disease pathology and drug development 😊

[Yunfeng Chen @YunfengChen2]

@ForceFromLipid @bmb_utmb Thanks Navid! Good to hear from you!

[Yunfeng Chen @YunfengChen2]

My 6-month-old son suddenly got really serious when taking the pic, so I trust he knew who he was meeting with and changed to his meet-the-Nobel-Prize-Winner face 😁😁😁 Congratulations again, Ardem! @ardemp

[Yunfeng Chen @YunfengChen2]

@michelle_c_ward @bmb_utmb Thanks Michelle. I’m keen to join you guys!!! Can’t wait!

[Yunfeng Chen @YunfengChen2]

@ardemp Huge congrats Ardem!!! It’s been an honor to work in the same institution with you.

[Yunfeng Chen @YunfengChen2]

@bmb_utmb Really really excited and honored to join UTMB BMB and Pathology!!! Look forward to working with the exceptional scholars in the departments and making a contribution!

[Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, UTMB Galveston @bmb_utmb]

BMB is delighted that Dr. Yunfeng Chen, MERU Foundation fellow at the Scripps Research Institute and K99/R00 awardee, has accepted our offer and will be joining us as Assistant Professor, BMB and Pathology. Welcome Yunfeng! @YunfengChen2
