Congratulations to Dr. Caymen Novak, former postdoc in the @ghadiali_lab and the @mnballinger lab on her recent publication Biomaterials! This study has uncovered the very cool "mechano-memory" of lung fibroblasts. @OhioStateBME @OhioStateDHLRI @OSUengineering @OhioStateMed

We need house dust from around the US for a research study at OSU! We’ll ask you to ship us some of your dust and complete a short survey. It will take about 30 min. We’ll pay shipping. Please contact my student Neeraja at balasubrahmaniam.1@buckeyemail.osu.edu.

Our manuscript "age-associated differences in human lung extracellular matrix" is finally out. This has been a long process, but the outcome is satisfying. Thank you to all the co-authors for their massive contribution. This wouldn't have been possible w/o your help. Thank you 🎉
