Our new paper officially out today in Blood Advances demonstrates the lung as a source of hemogenic endothelium (HE) capable of undergoing endothelial to hematopoietic transition (EHT) to produce hematopoietic and stem progenitor cells (HSPCs) doi.org/10.1182/blooda…
Kind of surreal to share that our manuscript (using organoids and in vivo models to highlight the requirement of Nkx2-1 to maintain progenitor capacity in AEPs) is out in Nature Communications (nature.com/articles/s4146…), summarizing a large amount of my thesis work with William Zacharias.
Congrats to newly minted Dr. Taylor Matte on your successful thesis defense today CReM BU GMS BU Pulmonary! and to his proud mentor Finn Hawkins! Wonderful doctoral dissertation work on how the master transcriptional regulator, NKX2-1, regulates lung fates! #itsthecells
An absolute HUGE congratulations to DR. Taylor Matte on a truly stellar thesis defense CReM! We’ve been besties since AP bio through UMass Lowell Biology and Boston U Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine and have been pushing each other ever since. Bonus pic of us winning best science student Dracut High School in 2011!!
Two margaritas deep, I heard a song playing called you can go your own way, and I was like wow they are really singing their ass off. Looked it up it’s two band members breaking up I am in TEARS! YOU CAN GO YOUR OWN WAY 😭😭 watched the live performance. he can’t even look at her
Still feels surreal, but I graduated! Big shoutout to Finn Hawkins, my CReM family, and Boston U Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine for a transformative six years! #openforpostdocs
