A fantastic lineup of speakers! A must for all macrophage enthusiasts . Can't wait!

🚨Job Alert🚨 (please RT!) The Dick lab is looking for a Research Technician to join our team! We use animal models to study immunology in heart and muscle to decipher how macrophages regulate homeostasis and regeneration. Find more info and apply👉queensu.njoyn.com/cl4/xweb/Xweb.…

An amazing opportunity to learn from one of the best mentors and work on some real cutting edge research!! Not to mention Toronto is a great place to do a postdoc 🇨🇦. (Not bias at all 😅)

We are thrilled to share our review article: "Origin and Heterogeneity of Tissue Myeloid Cells" with @realFlorentGinhoux Immanuel Kwok #ZhaoyuanLiu in Annual Reviews of #immunology annualreviews.org/doi/full/10.11…

Looking for a permenant position as a Flowcore Manager? Want to live by the lake in the vibrant Ontario town of Kingston? Look no further!

Very cool paper on CCR2+ resident macs and their spatial distribution in the kidney!! Congrats 👏

I am delighted to share that my postdoc work is now out in Science Magazine. We investigated the resident #macrophage #KupfferCell compartment in liver #fibrosis and made some surprising observations! (1/17) science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Our latest review on Caspase/CAD control of DNA strand breaks made the Cover of TiCB!!! Thanks to my co-authors and collaborators Jan Benada, Dalal Alsowaida and Claus Sorensen. And thanks to Lawrence Marvit and Anita Brozkova for the very cool artwork!!!! 🙂

Happy to share our preprint identifying circ5078 as a BMPR2-derived circRNA and regulator of endothelial translation. Kudos to PhD candidate, Marty VandenBroek for all the hard work. @RenwickLab

Made it to beautiful Ghent for #EMDS2023! Already in love with this city! 🇧🇪 Can't wait for all the exciting science over the next couple of days!🔬

Calling all patch-clamp electrophysiologists! We’re looking for a postdoctoral fellow or PhD student to join our group to study circadian rhythms of sensory neurons. Previous experience in pain physiology is preferred. Message or email me for more info. Canadian Pain Society US Association for the Study of Pain

We are very excited to present the development of Zman-seq (“Zman”, Hebrew for “time”), the 1st technology that measures single-cell transcriptomes and physical time in vivo, led by Daniel Kirschenbaum, Ken Xie, Florian Ingelfinger, Assaf Weiner sciencedirect.com/science/articl…. (1/19)

Human ESC-derived Macrophages (via a yolk sac primitive hematopoiesis program) engraft into cardiac microtissues and improve their maturation and contractile function. A huge step forward in improving stem cell therapies for heart disease! Congrats Homaira, Slava, and team! 🤩

We are looking for an imaging specialist to join our growing core facility here at Queen's!🔬🔬 Please repost and share with anyone who might be interested!

The first Dick/Ormiston/Maurice lab summer BBQ is in the books! Looking forward to more science fun with this fantastic team! #newPI

Congrats to Seily Shrestha for successful completion of her mini-Master's / transfer exam and officially becoming the Dick lab's first PhD student!!! #ProudPI QUbiomed

(1/2) We're pleased to announce Slava Epelman, MD, Ph.D. as the 2024 Till & McCulloch Award recipient, recognized for his outstanding research paper published in Nature Cardiovascular Research. 👏 🔗 stemcellnetwork.ca/dr-slava-epelm… Slava Epelman

Congratulations to Dr. Slava Epelman (Slava Epelman) on receiving the 2024 Till & McCulloch Award! 👏 His research in Nature Cardiovascular Research highlighted how primitive macrophages improve heart tissue development, offering a new model for studying human heart formation. 🫀

Seily did a great job presenting her work at #KSMyeloid2025!! A fantastic conference overall!
