Congrats to newly minted PhD Matt Stevenson! A stellar defense and so well deserved. He was the first grad student to join my lab. It was an honor to be his mentor and I look forward to all the amazing accomplishments yet to come in his postdoc and beyond!

The beauty of developmental biology for this #FluorescenceFriday.

A great complementary story to our work on ILDR2 (doi.org/10.1101/2024.0…). After discussing our independent results, we are grateful to work with Prof Dr. rer. nat. Nicole Endlich and team to co-publish our manuscripts. First bioRxiv, journal co-publication to follow!

For #FluorescenceFriday, a human kidney cortex sample immunolabeled with SMA (magenta) and podocin (green), highlighting the vessels and glomeruli. The tissue wasn't completely cleared yet (needed image for a talk, lol) but still turned out😍. Pierre-Emmannuel N’Guetta

New preprint w. Eva Maria Funk & René Hägerling + lab Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin: we made a new tool to label lymphatics: anti-LYVE1 single-domain antibodies, AKA nanobodies (👇 video of kidney lymphatics, nanobody in white) Many other potential uses! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… UCL Child Health Kidney Lab

Congratulations to Dr. Lori O'Brien on being recognized as an awardee of the Innovative Science Accelerator Program! #ISAProgram #InnovativeResearch #ScientificInnovation

Check out our new paper on the interplay between sleep and synapses during development! Diering_Lab Developing forebrain synapses are uniquely vulnerable to sleep loss | PNAS pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Our latest paper on neuronal resilience. The apoptotic pathway is activated as a transient pulse in neurons even with continuous apoptotic stimulus. Neurons prepare for survival even when they activate apoptotic signaling. Congrats Keeley and others!! nature.com/articles/s4141…

🔥 FULL TIME! 🔥 #ElClásico

Congrats to Lori O'Brien on winning an Innovative Science Accelerator Award from Innovative Science Accelerator Program! O’Brien pioneered whole tissue 3D imaging of #kidney nerves. Now she will map changes in these nerves from acute injury to chronic disease for the first time! med.unc.edu/cellbiophysio/…

I am excited to share that the project that taught me how to do science is now published at Journal of Cell Biology Journal of Cell Biology.

Today is World Kidney Day 🎉 Celebrating 20 years of raising awareness about kidney health 🌍 The 2025 campaign #AreYourKidneysOK highlights the importance of #EarlyDetection in preventing and managing kidney disease. 👉 worldkidneyday.org/2025-campaign/ Share your WKD activity

For #FluorescenceFriday sharing the fantastic work of postdoc Sarah McLarnon! A follow up to our '23 Development paper where we asked: Does precise vascular patterning matter for function and what happens after ischemic injury? The results were surprising! journals.physiology.org/doi/full/10.11…
