Our latest @Nature paper is out! We show that transplanting mitochondria into endothelial cells boosts their ability to form blood vessels in ischemic tissues, with mitophagy as the key mechanism. A potential game-changer for vascular cell therapies. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

The new @stemcellpodcast episode is out! It was a real pleasure to speak with Drs. Daylon James & @ArunSharmaPhD about vascular organoids, stem cell engraftment, and our lab’s work. Thanks for the thoughtful questions and for spotlighting our research!
📢 A new episode is out! We chat with Dr. Juan Melero-Martin (@MeleroMartinLab) at @harvardmed and @BostonChildrens about how #VascularNetworks are formed and the mechanisms by which the vasculature modulates the engraftment and activity of various human stem cells. 🔊 Listen now: bit.ly/4333s3f

A bittersweet moment for the lab. After nearly 4 years with us, Dr. Liyan Gong is off to start her own lab at the Institute of Health and Medicine in Hefei, China. We’ll miss her deeply but are so proud of this next chapter. #labfarewell #womeninscience #newPI #stemcells

Welcome Ziyan Liu to the lab! She’s a rising sophomore at @JohnsHopkins and joins us this summer through the @harvardstemcell HIP program to work on allogeneic stem cell therapies for vascular disease. Good luck with the experiments! #HSCI #VascularBiology #StemCells
