#ISEH2024 day 1 🫡 With awesome Dr. Len Zon and my beautiful PI @espinlab

Had so much fun, made so many friends and learnt a lot at #ISEH2024 Bye Chicago 🫶 Hello Italy vacation 👌

Dr. Clyde Campbell at @UIowa and team find that that NF-kB signaling works as a clock that controls the developmental progression of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells by two p65 activity waves that inhibit the cell cycle. ⏰ go.nature.com/3MCsRZ0

New preprint is out! We present a single cell map of blood formation from iPSC hemogenic endothelium and identify elevated FGF signaling as a barrier to hematopoiesis. Led by Rachel Wellington with Xiaoyi(Chelsea) Cheng, @espinlab, Cole Trapnell & Brandon Hadland biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Great science, new friends, and unforgettable moments at the FASEB Hematological Malignancies conference 🫡 FASEB

Our study is now published online in StemCellReports! We map how blood forms from hemogenic endothelium during iPSC differentiation and identify FGF signaling as a barrier to hematopoiesis. cell.com/stem-cell-repo…
