This publication has been several years in the making and I am so excited it is now published :-). We found that mechanical and chemical stimuli elicit differential modifications in chromatin accessibility, in dermal papilla vs papillary fibroblasts @NickPantelireis @KrysiaBroda.

While I have bronchitis and couldn’t attend the #BSID2024, I couldn’t be more proud of my group for representing the Higgins lab in my absence. Special mention to @arhodes2000 who received the best poster prize for her PhD work #sensoryneurons #hairfollicle #serotonin @HashemiLab

Just like that it’s all over. Had a great time at #WCHR2024 with @arhodes2000 who gave an amazing talk. The solar eclipse was spectacular. So glad we got to see it and the clouds moved out of the way for the crucial 4 minutes. Looking forward to the next meeting in Seoul now.
