Our work describing #TREM2 #macrophages in #obesity & #diabetes-associated #KidneyDisease is out. An exciting journey since first sighting #TREM2 macs in our kidney #scRNAseq in 2018 w Yiming, Katherine @AnnaGreka @broadinstitute Huge 🙏🙏 to all coauthors dlvr.it/T7FFMb
Excited to share the results of a huge collaborative effort @broadinstitute @brighamWomens providing comparative cellular taxonomies of human and mouse adult kidneys using #scRNAseq . We studied the healthy, obese & diabetic kidney to ID shared cell states across species 1/
