Congratulations to the members of the BIMS 2020 cohort who have completed their quals/proposal defense and have advanced to CANDIDACY! 💙🧡 We were honored to have Melina Kibbe join us and share her experiences at the bench and encouraging words for the time ahead. UVA School of Medicine

Congratulations to our grad student Aleksandra (Ola) Ćwiek for receiving an AHA Science Predoctoral Fellowship studying retinoic acid regulation of placental vascularization! So well deserved! 👏👏👏 UVa Cell Biology

Wonderful time at the Vascular Cell Biology Gordon Research Conferences in Ventura last week! Really inspiring work presented by everyone involved, thanks to The Arany lab for organizing a great meeting. Excited for the next one in January 2025!

Congrats to Hirschi Lab postdocs Nafiisha Genet and Nick Chavkin on each receiving their own AHA Science Career Development Award! We are so excited to see where their research leads! 🧬❤️ UVa Cell Biology UVA CVRC

Congrats to Nafiisha Genet on her great work just published in Cell Reports!

A recent study by the Hirschi Lab at UVA School of Medicine shows that vascular #endothelial cell-expressed Cx43 regulates adult #NSC proliferation and differentiation. #neurogenesis More in Cell Reports. 📚 bit.ly/41pby31

Welcome Josh and the @wythelab! We are thrilled to have you join UVa Cell Biology UVA School of Medicine and are excited to start working together!

So incredibly proud of Aleksandra (Ola) Ćwiek and her work. Presented today at #pas2023 Congratulations!!!

Dr. karen Hirschi on “role of endothelial cell hyperproliferation and AVMs” 📌 Data showing control of endothelial cell proliferation prevents AVM formation. ⁉️ Can endothelial cell cycle inhibitors be used to treat AVMs? #VascularDiscovery23 AHA Research @CouncilPvd

I was honored to chair the #regenerative_medicine session at CÚRAM summit 2023 with prof. Murphy. Including outstanding talks from prof. Hirschi Hirschi Lab, prof. John Laffey, Dr. Meadhbh Brennan, and Dr. @JohnJMulvihill 🍀

Congratulations to grad student Ola Cwiek for winning the Hiroko Nishimura Award for best trainee presentation at the CHRC's Pediatrics Annual Research Symposium! Fantastic work! 👏

A recent study by Hirschi Lab identified microRNA-223 as a negative regulator of murine hemogenic #endothelial cell specification and endothelial-to-#hematopoietic transition. UVA CVRC Yale Department of Genetics 🖨️ Published in Developmental Cell! bit.ly/3Jb450Q

In our latest episode, we discuss a study from the lab of Dr. Karen Hirschi (Hirschi Lab) at Yale University. Her lab identified miR-223 as a negative regulator of murine hemogenic endothelial cell specification and #myelopoiesis. 📒: bit.ly/3Jb450Q 🎧: bit.ly/3J6pckY

Congrats to postdoc Yinyu Wu on her recent Developmental Cell paper titled "MicroRNA-223 limits murine hemogenic endothelial cell specification and myelopoiesis". Great work! 👏🎉UVA CVRC Yale CVRC UVA School of Medicine Yale Department of Genetics

Cool comparisons between different vascular beds and the endothelium within them. Thanks to Luke Dunaway and Melissa Luse for co-leading the way on this.

Really amazing study here - outstanding work from @WesleyAbplanalp Stefanie Dimmeler. I was able to help write a News & Views on this article as well: nature.com/articles/s4416… New technique that helped identify how small clone sizes in CHIP have large effects.

Excited to share our now-published work showing that obesity accelerates EndoMT in adipose tissue! Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine. Using lineage-tracing mouse models, human cell culture assays, and human scRNAseq datasets, we show that obesogenic diet promote EndoMT. tinyurl.com/3bkffkdj

Congratulations to Dr. Yen-Lin Chen from Swapnil Sonkusare on his K99/R00 award for studying lymphatic endothelial Piezo1 and TRP channels in obesity! Many thanks to co-mentors and collaborators Joshua Scallan, Hirschi Lab, 🦕Brant Isakson🦖 @NIDDK UVA CVRC

I can’t wait to see @MTorrescnic, vascular development lab, GrauperaLab and Hirschi Lab at this year’s Seeon meeting, where they will discuss concepts of cellular fitness, competition, and clonality in the cardiovascular system. For applications, visit: vwfb.de.

Congratulations and best of luck Nick Chavkin! We're excited to see what you find. We'll miss you at UVA!
