New preprint! Here we validate a novel model of neuromuscular contracture in the mouse that models changes in patients with cerebral palsy, and identify Smad4 as a novel target to rescue contracture formation.

Excited to share our work where we demonstrate an important role of regulatory T cells in mediating functional tendon regeneration @GiuliaCrosio @AHHuangLab @OrthoColumbia @ORSsociety science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

Got bored while editing my slide deck and went through NIH Reporter to compile some statistics on all active NIH funding for different musculoskeletal tissues.
Why was I not surprised but also shocked to see this 😅 @ors_tendon #TeamTendon (solidarity with @OrsMeniscus)
ALT A pie chart of all active NIH funding for different musculoskeletal tissues, including muscle (41.37%), bone (39.00%), spine (12.74%), cartilage (4.50%), tendon & ligament (1.60%), and meniscus (0.54%).

What a fun walk down memory lane. Thanks for the spotlight! @ColumbiaBME @OrthoColumbia

In our April #BMEBlaze spotlight, we loved catching up with Columbia BME alumna (BS '03) and current @OrthoColumbia professor Alice Huang @AHHuangLab as she reminisced about her journey from @ColumbiaBME student to professor!

Congratulations @GiuliaCrosio on your first paper from the lab! Check out her @eCM_Journal review on immune cells in tendon healing, complementing @VarunArvind review last year on immune cytokines.

Excited to share our work that explores how differences in neonatal and adult immunity distinguishes tendon regeneration, and how neonatal Tregs are critical for tendon regeneration in neonates with improved tendon repair in adults treated with neonatal mouse and human Tregs
18 May 2021
New preprint on the role of neonatal vs adult Tregs in tendon healing now up! @VarunArvind @khowell320 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
