Very excited to announce that my PhD project on the role of HSC in regulating trained immunity has been published in @CellStemCell! I couldn't have done this without @pietras_eric, @Bailee_Kain, @TheKingLab, @dalessandrolab, and many others. Take a look:

Pietras Lab summer BBQ activities: 1) enjoy conversation and summer cocktails; 2) fix broken landscape items; 3) laugh at the neighbor's weird cat who came to visit; 4) stare at table (if you're the dog).

PU.1 makes myeloid cells - but it also pumps the brakes on their production under inflammatory conditions and limits expression of metabolic genes that likely drive the process. Implications for controlling myeloid output in #MPN #autoimmunity etc.

Someone's got a summer project this year. Selfie shot was followed immediately by sorter clog - a potent reminder of who's really in charge.

Among the many pleasures of peer review is making a recommendation to accept a really nicely done manuscript. Particularly so when all of the reviewers made helpful, clear, in-scope and addressable suggestions that improved the work.

Congratulations @YKang_Lab! A really fascinating story and a good reminder that progenitor cells serve more than just a transit amplifying function in blood homeostasis and disease.
In @JExpMed, Kang @YKang_Lab, Paik @hyojungpaik, Passegué et al identify a novel secretory subset of myeloid-biased multipotent progenitors that serves an essential regulatory function to amplify myeloid cell production in stress & disease conditions https://t.co/OCBNLjgWdY
