It's really just that glutamate at position that 57 stops SOX17 from being an ultra-SOX when making pluripotent stem cells, and it does not really matter which residue we put there. Congrats to Jessie (Sik Yin HO/何晰然) (now The Boroviak Lab ), Haoqing Hu and the team cell.com/stem-cell-repo…

New #pluripotency research reveals how mutations in #SOX17 dimerization interface at position 57 can turn it into a pluripotency inducer. Read more! #reprogramming #iPSCs #XEN #SOX2 #pioneerfactors ISSCR Cell Press Gairdner Foundation The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) ow.ly/1eIq50UWZfu

🎉Big congrats to Dr. Haoqing Hu Centre for Translational Stem Cell Biology for winning the Hong Kong Genome Institute Prize 2024 for the best research thesis in Genome Science!👏Her outstanding work on engineered SOX17 (eSOX17) under Prof. Ralf Jauch Ralf Jauch HKU SBMS explored its role in cell fate conversion.

we are proud of you very well deserved Haoqing

R.I.P. Prof Sheldrick. I did my first lab rotation in his lab during my M.Sc/PhD studies in Goettingen

I taught an LLM to optimize proteins. It proposed a better carbon capture enzyme. Introducing Pro-1, an 8b param reasoning model trained using GRPO towards a physics based reward function for protein stability. It takes in a protein sequence + text description + previous

HKUMed has climbed to rank 24th globally and 1st in Hong Kong in the QS World University Rankings by Subject 2025: Medicine.

holy shit MIT researchers just turned skin cells directly into neurons without stem cell intermediate, 100-fold efficiency boost, and they actually worked when transplanted into mouse brains 1/

Our PIs are active in start-ups, spin-offs, and InnoHK centres, advancing biomedicine and bioinformatics. We drive translational research and KE activities and interdisciplinary collaborations to enhance HK's digital-tech & innovation leadership. 2/2

Three Co-Chairs of the ISSCR Program Committee discussed the upcoming #ISSCR2025 meeting in #HK on The Stem Cell Podcast, and #HKUSBMS Prof. Kathryn Cheah emphasised the importance of international participation and diversity among speakers and attendees. Take a listen.

Just out in Cell: the Asian Immune Diversity Atlas (AIDA) is a 5-nation single-cell blood atlas. We show that humans are remarkably diverse in gene expression and cell phenotype, with disease implications #healthcaredisparities #PrecisionMedicine [tinyurl.com/AIDA-Cell-2025]. [1/14]

Thanks, Hong Kong Laureate Forum, for letting me indulge not only in the history of #stemcells but also return to my own roots in Jena, home to the Villa Medusa
