So excited to see this amazing work published from an amazing friend and colleague. It's amazing to see that PHF7 alone has such an effect on restoring cardiac function after MI. Congrats @glynnis_bann.

Excited to share our study out in Circulation identifying the ability of PHF7 to activate cellular reprogramming and recover function in the heart following myocardial infarction. Grateful to @Transactivator and the great team who made this work possible!

Guess we’re gonna have to ask our favorite AI chatbots to predict drug efficacy instead of doing preclinical studies now.

NIH no longer award funding to new grant proposals solely relying on animal testing.

Inspiring and fascinating talk from @ardemp about the role of mechanosensing in processes I’ve never thought to be associated with Piezo proteins. His lessons on science were timely and appreciated as well. See the AI generated poster for the other dates on his seminar tour!
