this week's catch-up: Congrats to Gaga (Joseph) Atake on his PhD, defended in Oct2023...went on to postdoc at UCSF (I forgot to say in previous posts, but Rafa, next to him, went on to teach at Saskatchewan Polytechnic; and Hamed, not pictured, went for a postdoc at U Victoria)

this week's catch-up: congrats to the lab on our first synchrotron imaging project, published in PLoS ONE in Oct2023 (never mind that over a dozen other synchrotron projects got published before this one, haha!) journals.plos.org/plosone/ar…

(lots of things to cover since Jul2023...) In this week's update, congrats to Rafa on her successful PhD defense in Jul2023!

more overdue posts coming, but can you believe that high-level admin folks actually baked pies for those (like me) receiving promotion to Full Professor this year?

congrats to Hamed, whose paper shows how cartilage cells respond to forces, like your knee cartilage during walking: mdpi.com/1422-0067/24/8/7410

Conservation of a core transcriptional program during chondrocyte differentiation in the limb and head suggest that the same core GRN was co-opted in different regions of the skeleton during evolution.Check out the latest publication in the Eames lab here: frontiersin.org/articles/10.…

Since mechanical stimulation can push the Col2/Col1 ratio, cartilage tissue engineering experiments should assess whether fibrocartilage or hyaline cartilage is formed. Check this interesting review paper by Hamed Alizadeh: frontiersin.org/articles/10.… #Eameslab πŸ‘¨πŸ»β€πŸ”¬πŸ§«πŸ”¬
