We are excited to continue using this platform for future drug discovery and to find treatments for IPF.

Intriguingly, iRAPs carrying a mutation in Hermansky Pudlak Syndrome 1 (HPS1), a highly penetrant mutation associated with IPF, showed impaired differentiation and recruited fibroblasts in co-culture, suggesting a direct link between RAPs and pulmonary fibrosis.

We show that iRAPs can be differentiated towards a transitional AT2-like cell and finally towards a mature AT1-like cell, showing an in vitro differentiation pathway from RAP to mature distal lung cell type.

We are excited to share our work out this week in Nature Biotechnology. We generate from pluripotent stem cells induced respiratory airways progenitors (iRAPs), a novel cell type that is increasingly being appreciated for its ability to regenerate the distal lung.

We also reveal that replication stress and DNA damage in HSCs are at least in part due to uracil misincorporation, and are a barrier to HSC maintenance in vitro.

Induction of G2 arrest may be a novel strategy to generate megakaryocytes and platelets from HSCs.

We are proud to share the collaborative work of our graduate student, Corey Garyn, and post-doc, Oriol Bover. They show that G2 arrest, which is caused by DNA damage, induces megakaryocyte (MK) priming in hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs).

This is a cutting-edge and novel technique, pleasure collaborating with your amazing team.
Update: for those interested in optical pooled screening in stem/pluripotent cells and neurons, we tested CRISPRmap in hESCs, iPSCs and iPSC derived neurons, and observed good barcode recovery. Shout out to the Wichterle lab and @SnoeckLab for their help in these cell contexts.

Her project involves using fibrotic lung organoid models as a tool for drug discovery and testing. She also analyzes genomics data with a focus on scRNA sequencing to better decode our lung organoid models.

His project focuses on how mutations that cause fibrotic lung diseases result in defects in regeneration and impaired stress response.
