#CellBio2024 : check out Fox lab postdoc @archan24 's poster tomorrow (Tuesday) to find out how cells balance mitochondrial and genome numbers during cell growth in fly and human hearts! Archan will be on the job market next year- any department would be lucky to have him!

Writing this piece was fun and made me realized that a "celebration mindset" is a successful strategy that is backed by sociology and psychology research ! A 🧵

Congratulations to Yang (who's also defending her PhD today!) and the team. Proud to have taken a part in this really cool story looking at neutrophils recruitment to the skin, and the role of stress-keratin K17 in the process!
During chronic #inflammatory diseases, how are neutrophils recruited to inflamed #skin? @PierreCoulombe8 @parentclab &co show that repeated acute stress to the skin amplifies a #neutrophil infiltration response involving keratin 17 & PKCα #PLOSBiology

What I don't get about academia is the chronic lack of celebration. It is hard to get & maintain grant funding, hard to get papers accepted without Faustian bargains, hard to be a great mentor, & hard to maximize trainee success. All of it is hard. We should celebrate everything.

Davies lab @NCIResearchCtr celebrating our W's Many animals get worse at regenerating as they age, but we don’t often hear about the opposite: a GAIN of regenerative ability during development! We investigated just that in our new #preprint

Few studies have investigated whether or how regenerative abilities vary across developmental stages of animal life cycles. Determining mechanisms that promote or limit regeneration in certain life...
