Excited to share our new preprint with you where we describe the molecular and morphological identity of glia limitans superficialis astrocytes (paper here: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… - image by the amazing @MelCooperPhD).

My brilliant @NDBios @NDscience @NotreDame colleague @alfmireles is competing in #STATmadness this year! Please vote for her novel catheter technology that reduces #CAUTIs! More details in her @eLife paper on this technology here: elifesciences.org/articles/7…

Inhibiting host-protein deposition on urinary catheters reduces associated urinary tract infections

The use of liquid-infused catheters results in significant reduction of bladder and catheter colonization, systemic dissemination, and bladder inflammation in a clinically relevant mouse model of...

Happy to share the lab's latest preprint, a study led by @NDBios @NDscience @NotreDame PhD student @LisaHom1. Lisa discovered an unexpected role for secreted factors from senescent fibroblasts in causing #pyroptosis in mammary epithelial cells. Congrats to Lisa all the authors!

This is REALLY important. If you want education in the center of the country, you’ll need to send some research and training money there.

I wanted a better way to show physical location of K99s (more coastal) are versus where R00s are (more distributed), so I plotted the data onto maps. This is from 2007-2022.

"As we continue to drown in data, our limitation remains what it has always been: our lack of a fundamental understanding of the mechanisms and pathways that all these elegantly described genes and gene products constitute." Great editorial in @scisignal. science.org/doi/10.1126/scis…

Congrats Cody and team, beautiful study. I had some non-published data showing that the MRC1+MS4A7+ subpopulation were rarely vessel associated in the embryonic mouse brain. We never lineage traced them, but they were definitely there and not necessarily PVMs at that stage.
