Professor Guyton built his career on feedback control, so consider this our (slightly delayed) feedback: Dr. Helen Collins winning the 2026 Arthur C. Guyton Award is exactly the equilibrium the field should settle into. Congratulations, Helen! đŸ«€

Latest from the Wysoczynski lab! In Experimental Hematology, Stephan et al. show that after MI, SiglecFâș neutrophils arise locally in the heart—not from immature cells, but from mature CD101âș neutrophils.

Several of the faculty and trainees from the center presented their latest cutting edge cardiovascular research at last weeks International Society for Heart Research-North American section meeting in Minnesota. It was a great meeting for all.

Huge congratulations to Dr. Benjamin Doelling (pictured) on defending his PhD today! His work shows that restoring cardiac carnosine levels in heart failure reduces chronic cardiac inflammation and rescues cardiac function. We are proud of you and your accomplishments.

Congratulations to Dr. Jonah Stephan on defending his PhD yesterday!  His dissertation on emergency granulopoiesis and wound healing after myocardial infarction is exactly the kind of mechanistic work that advances the field. We are proud that he trained in the Center.

I am incredibly thankful to be honored by the American Physiology Society in the name of Dr. Guyton. Extremely thankful to my mentors at at UofL SOM, the Envirome Institute, and the Center for Cardiometabolic Science (and beyond) for supporting my laboratory and career. Special thanks to Steven Jones, Bradford Hill, and Merry Lindsey for believing in me especially when I didn’t necessarily believe in myself, and for wholeheartedly supporting me. Now I better get to work and continue the marathon.
