Congratulations and best of luck @nickchavkin! We're excited to see what you find. We'll miss you at UVA!

[Nick Chavkin @nickchavkin]

Exciting news to share - I accepted an Assistant Professor position to start my lab at Seattle Children's Research Institute and @uwpediatrics! I start on July 1st in the Center for Developmental Biology and Regenerative Medicine. https://t.co/NT4ftAht1T

[PotenteLab @PotenteLab]

I can’t wait to see @MTorrescnic, @makinenlab, @MarionaGraupera and @HirschiLab at this year’s Seeon meeting, where they will discuss concepts of cellular fitness, competition, and clonality in the cardiovascular system. For applications, visit: https://t.co/1zbdCyOi1y.

Congratulations to Dr. Yen-Lin Chen from @sonkusarelab on his K99/R00 award for studying lymphatic endothelial Piezo1 and TRP channels in obesity! Many thanks to co-mentors and collaborators @ScallanLab, @HirschiLab, @conn_pann_fun @NIDDK @UVACVRC

[Nick Chavkin @nickchavkin]

Excited to share our now-published work showing that obesity accelerates EndoMT in adipose tissue! @FrontCVMedicine. Using lineage-tracing mouse models, human cell culture assays, and human scRNAseq datasets, we show that obesogenic diet promote EndoMT.

Really amazing study here - outstanding work from @WesleyAbplanalp @StefanieDimmel1. I was able to help write a News & Views on this article as well:

New technique that helped identify how small clone sizes in CHIP have large effects.

Cool comparisons between different vascular beds and the endothelium within them. Thanks to @Luke_Dunaway and @melissa_luse for co-leading the way on this.

Congrats to postdoc Yinyu Wu on her recent @Dev_Cell paper titled "MicroRNA-223 limits murine hemogenic endothelial cell specification and myelopoiesis". Great work! 👏🎉@UVACVRC @YaleCVRC @MedicineUVA @YaleGenetics

[Stem Cell Podcast @stemcellpodcast]

In our latest episode, we discuss a study from the lab of Dr. Karen Hirschi (@HirschiLab) at @Yale.

Her lab identified miR-223 as a negative regulator of murine hemogenic endothelial cell specification and #myelopoiesis.

I was honored to chair the #regenerative_medicine session at @CURAMdevices summit 2023 with prof. Murphy.
Including outstanding talks from prof. Hirschi @HirschiLab, prof. @johnglaffey, Dr. @MeadhbhBrennan, and Dr. @JohnJMulvihill 🍀

Congratulations to grad student Ola Cwiek for winning the Hiroko Nishimura Award for best trainee presentation at the CHRC's Pediatrics Annual Research Symposium! Fantastic work! 👏

[Aleksandra (Ola) Ćwiek @CwiekAleksandra]

I was awarded the Hiroko Nishimura award for the best trainee presentation during the 35th Pediatrics Annual Research Symposium at @UVA_CHRC, and I learned a lot about prematurity from @MugliaLouis! 🎉 @HirschiLab @uva_bims @UVa_CellBio

[AHA Science @AHAScience]

Dr. karen Hirschi on “role of endothelial cell hyperproliferation and AVMs”
📌 Data showing control of endothelial cell proliferation prevents AVM formation.
⁉️ Can endothelial cell cycle inhibitors be used to treat AVMs?

[Jennifer Charlton @JenniferCharlt7]

So incredibly proud of @CwiekAleksandra and her work. Presented today at #pas2023 Congratulations!!!

[Hirschi Lab @HirschiLab]

Welcome Josh and the @wythelab! We are thrilled to have you join @UVa_CellBio @MedicineUVA and are excited to start working together!

[Neural Cell News @NeuralCell]

A recent study by the @HirschiLab at @MedicineUVA shows that vascular #endothelial cell-expressed Cx43 regulates adult #NSC proliferation and differentiation. #neurogenesis

More in @CellReports.

Congrats to @nafiishaGenet on her great work just published in @CellReports!

[Nafiisha Genet @nafiishaGenet]

I'm excited to announce the publication of my latest article from @HirschiLab , titled "Connexin-43 mediated Neurovascular Interactions regulate Neurogenesis in the Adult brain subventricular zone," in Cell Reports. @uva_ec @UVa_CellBio @UVACVRC

[Hirschi Lab @HirschiLab]

Congrats to Hirschi Lab postdocs @nafiishaGenet and @nickchavkin on each receiving their own @AHAScience Career Development Award! We are so excited to see where their research leads! 🧬❤️ @UVa_CellBio @UVACVRC

[Hirschi Lab @HirschiLab]

Wonderful time at the Vascular Cell Biology @GordonConf in Ventura last week! Really inspiring work presented by everyone involved, thanks to @AranyLab for organizing a great meeting. Excited for the next one in January 2025!
