2 papers out in December! Crazy that this is the normal rate for some labs. Michaela's on SIRT6 and DNA damage repair in chondrocytes (Aging, PMID: 38078876); Matt's on the "MagnaSquish" to test cartilage recovery during cyclic loading (J Biomechanics, PMID: 38128469).

Paper out today in Aging Cell! Ever wonder how much DNA damage accumulates in chondrocytes during "normal" aging? We found out - a lot! Check out paper by @jointbme Diekman Lab grad student Michaela Copp and others from @UNCTARC here: doi.org/10.1111/acel.13698

I really only use Twitter for work so 90% of you getting this tweet are already giving much of your energy and time towards MSK research. For the remaining 10%, consider joining me in supporting TARC! give.communityfunded.com/o/u…

My first two PhD candidates! Both Matt and Michaela nailed their prelims this past month and fun to celebrate with the rest of the lab today. Fantastic first students and grateful they took the chance to join a new lab!

We have a full-time position open at UNC - please join us! Likely ~75% research/25% lab management. Many techniques w/ focus on osteoarthritis: murine models, cell culture, genome editing. Experience a plus, but open to motivated folks w/o. Please RT. unc.peopleadmin.com/postings….

Thanks to @MaerzAndBlue for engaging with the chat feature during our senescence symposium! The chat will stay up since not a "live session" so others can join in when they watch later. @Guilak_Lab @JHElisseeff @bxjohnstone cattendee.abstractsonline.co…

Which one of these did Lou forget to include in his #ORS2021 talk? Fantastic insight into risk for ACL tears, a fedora, self-deprecating humor, Chuck Norris jokes, a cameo of his infamous Hawaiian shirt, Wookie noises? @defratelab cattendee.abstractsonline.co…

Just watched Farsh nail his Kappa Delta talk summarizing work from @Guilak_Lab on biological joint resurfacing. So grateful that this project was my introduction to research! @TheBradEstes trained me and Frank Moutos always inspiring. Congrats on the award!
