The Ezhkova team members had a fantastic time at the @CDRBSinai and @Sinai_IRM annual retreat! Lots of inspiring science and invigorating discussions and many of us presented posters. Already looking forward to the next one!!

Thrilled to close out the week by sharing our newest publication in @ScienceAdvances! It was a pleasure to branch out and explore the TD keratinocytes, but was pleasantly surprised by their likeness to HFSCs! https://t.co/Judg90xlJa

TD keratinocytes in the adult skin have molecular characteristics of diverse epidermal lineages.

It is such a pleasure to be one of the organizers for the @SBDRCatMtSinai-sponsored NY Skin Club. This meeting has grown so much over the past years, and with it grows my awe and admiration for the skin research community! On a personal note, I also had a chance to give a talk🥰
The 2023 NY SKIN CLUB meeting was a huge success with >170 registrants! We would like to thank all attendees for their enthusiastic participation, engaging discussions making this meeting a great resource for the broader skin research community of the tri-state area and beyond!

The @EzhkovaLab focuses on identifying the epigenetic mechanisms that govern epidermal stem cell function, fate and regulation in developing and adult skin. Check out this feature highlighting the ongoing work in Dr. Ezhkova's lab, Director of @SBDRCatMtSinai.
A study published by Elena Ezhkova, PhD, showed that UV itself causes a temporal reduction in Polycomb complexes in the epidermis. Reduced Polycomb levels in the epidermis lead to epidermal pigmentation - even without UV exposure. Learn more: https://t.co/h8hMXBQ7D4
