Congrats to Dominic Henn on the recent article in the Nature Communications! Using scRNA sequencing, we identified Ndrg2 within dendritic cells to create a translational approach to accelerating healing in both diabetic and non-diabetic mouse models. lnkd.in/grqK5Yqk


Congrats to my team, Jagan Padmanabhan, Kellen Chen and Dharshan Sivaraj on their recent publication in Nature Biomedical Engineering. We believe Rac2 could help reduce rates of implant rejection in patients. Many thanks to the rest of the team! shorturl.at/fmqB0


Congrats to H. Kussie, W. Hahn, Dharshan Sivaraj et all, on their recent pub in Advances in Wound Care (surl.li/rgfeg) detailing how avenanthramide and beta-glucan accelerate wound closure through the modulation of inflammatory cell recruitment and angiogenesis.

A new generation of smart bandages that could allow doctors to remotely monitor wounds, decrease scarring and speed up healing with a zap of light or electricity is on its way wsj.com/tech/biotech/s… via The Wall Street Journal
