Huge thanks to the ECDO Board for this selection and recognizing the works from our group! I am truly honored! Thank you.

We are delighted to announce that the 2025 ECDO Honorary Lecture will be awarded to Kodi Ravichandran for his extraordinary discoveries in the field of Efferocytosis. The Award ceremony will take place during the ECDO 2025 Conference in Berlin (7-10 Oct, 2025).

A beautiful story from the @Andersonbuglab!! @Ravi_Research Metabolite-based inter-kingdom communication controls intestinal tissue recovery following chemotherapeutic injury: Cell Host & Microbe

Conversation between host &gut microbiota unveils a “silver bullet” therapeutic option for chemotherapy Preview of @Andersonbuglab @kodiravi work showing chemotherapy-induced apoptosis drives dysbiosis &transcriptional rewiring,delaying intestinal recovery https://t.co/bg4VQRsyab

Congratulations to CJ Anderson, many members of our group at VIB/Ghent University, and CJ's new team at Univ of Edinburgh - remarkable body of work and exciting discoveries!

@HHMINEWS I’m honored and humbled to be joining this inspiring cohort of new HHMI Investigators, and extremely grateful for the talented scientists I’ve had the privilege of working with in my lab these past 15 years. This is really a reflection of their efforts and ingenuity! @HHMINews

Huge Congratulations to Parul Mehrotra @MehrotraPa, Sophia Maschalidi @Maschalidi, and many coauthors from our group, plus key collaborators (Mo Lamkanfi, Esther Hoste, Umang Jain) in dissecting the hidden tissue repair roles of the pyroptotic secretome!! https://t.co/GvhoS9ziRl

Huge Congratulations to Parul Mehrotra @MehrotraPa, Sophia Maschalidi @Maschalidi, and many coauthors from our group, plus key collaborators (Mo Lamkanfi, Esther Hoste, Umang Jain) in dissecting the hidden tissue repair roles of the pyroptotic secretome!!

Pyroptotic cells release oxylipins and metabolites that act as mediators of tissue repair! 🔥🔥🔥 Check out our recent work in @Nature! Thanks to all coauthors @maschalidi and the incredible @Ravi_Research @kodiravi labs! https://t.co/11oLpqqMSo

Thrilled to share our work with @MehrotraPa and @Ravi_Research @kodiravi identifying oxylipins and metabolites from pyroptotic cells as promoters of tissue repair. Out today in @Nature Huge thanks to all coauthors and collaborators! https://t.co/eVozPyO0Zd

Huge congratulations to Turan Tufan for defining how macrophages use pause/release to rapidly (within min) modify their gene and protein expression during efferocytosis to ingest successive corpses! Thanks to many coauthors who helped us along!

Last year, while applying to ophthalmology, I took an elective in endocrinology. My attending said, "The eye is not an endocrine organ." I replied, "As far as we know." WELL. Now we have evidence of endocrine (OK, paracrine) signaling with endogenous insulin in the retina! 🤯

Congratulations to J. Iker Etchegaray (and many co-authors) for detailing an unexpected role for phagocytosis by the RPE in inducing a local insulin source in the eye, how it is distinct from systemic insulin, and its impact on retinal physiology.

Out today from The Perry Lab @Cell_Metabolism https://t.co/90Fmqv1UBG. Sincere thanks to the lab, collabs, & the editors at CM and @CellCellPress who really worked hard to get this paper over the finish line (more below). The tweetorial can be found here

Fancy working @QMULWHRI in the heart of London? We have one postdoc position funded by @TheBHF starting March 2023. Looking for recent PhD graduates with interest in cardiovascular research. Top-class research culture and benefits. Please RT and DM. Email:m.subramanian@qmul.ac.uk

CHEF Kodi did it again!! Harnessing the power of ELMO to increase the appetite of cells in living organisms and dramatically improve #resolution_of_inflammation l Future therapy?! A-ma-zing!! Congrats team 🔥 @kodiravi @CellCellPress https://t.co/p0lBaPeg9d

Huge congratulations to Sho Morioka, other lab members, and collaborators on a new way to boost efferocytosis and dampen inflammation in disease models

Thank you, Art. I will add that this meeting also covers other modalities of cell death as well as tissue regeneration and repair. Thanks.

Join us for the EMBO meeting with an exciting lineup of topics and speakers in the lovely city of Ghent, Belgium, from Sep 12-15, 2022 . Due to relaxation of COVID rules, we have ~20 more additional spots. Please register soon! Kindly retweet - thanks!

Congratulations to @Mehrotra_Pa on two counts. First, her publication today in Nature Rev Drug Discovery ( https://t.co/pcnbPDcSnj) on "Drugging the efferocytosis process". Second, for securing an Asst Prof position to start her lab in IIT, New Delhi - so well deserved!
