Is there anything TRPV4 can't do? Our paper just out in @StemCellsJournl by Vince Willard shows that #TRPV4 is not just a marker of chondrogenesis, it also regulates it in #iPSCs! w/ Holly Leddy, Daniel Palmer, Chia-Lung Wu, & Wolfgang Liedtke @Regeneron stemcellsjournals.onlinelibr…

Can cells be rewired to deliver on-demand drugs that fight fluctuating #inflammation? We bioengineered anti-cytokine implants using #CRISPR #synbio that mitigated #arthritispain, #jointdamage, bone erosion and inflammation in mice: bit.ly/2WDmSwQ

Great new paper by @WhasilL showing how inflammation provokes cellular mechanosensitivity through Piezo1. Great working with Wolfgang Liedtke’s lab, @mcnultylab, @AliSavadipour, @Farsh_G

Congrats to Dr Whasil Lee @WhasilL for her latest #Piezo paper out in @PNASnews!!! She showed IL-1 enhances Piezo1 function, making chondrocytes more sensitive to loading. Great collab with Liedtke lab @MaybeItsBob @AliSavadipour @mcnultylab & others

OK I found my words. I am howling with rage tonight at the rising tide of violence and hate crimes directed towards Asians in America, punctuated by the horrific shootings yesterday in Georgia at 3 Asian-owned business that claimed 8 lives, including those of 6 Asian women.

At NIH, @KizzyPhD says: "When we got those sequences, because we knew how to make that protein as a very good vaccine, we did that really quickly over the weekend."
@POTUS: "Over the weekend."
@KizzyPhD: "Over the weekend. You know something about working on weekends, right?"
