@vannazachariou Alex Serafini, PhD/MHA et al. identified nucleus accumbens myocyte enhancer factor 2C as a targetable regulator of maladaptive behaviors and physiological changes after prolonged nerve injury. Learn more in #PAIN bit.ly/3UOxIe2


Now in #PAIN: “Nucleus accumbens myocyte enhancer factor 2C mediates the maintenance of peripheral nerve injury–induced physiological and behavioral maladaptations” by Vanna Zachariou Alex Serafini, PhD/MHA et al. bit.ly/3UOxIe2

Thrilled to announce our pre-print on how epigenetic biomarker proxies (EBPs) can offer valuable insights into chronic diseases and mortality! #epigenetics TruDiagnostic medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Is there room to rethink the role of academics in formulating IP? We think so! Please check out our new commentary in Nature Biotechnology on how education can improve IP output and #techtransfer opportunities. nature.com/articles/s4158…



Excited to share my PhD work with BogunovicLab in nature! We highlight the importance of monoallelic expression on the penetrance of genetic disease. nature.com/articles/s4158… Columbia Children's Health Lipschultz Precision Immunology Institute SinaiMSTP Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai #InThoseGenes


A HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to Dr. Eric J. Nestler, MD, PhD on being named Interim Dean Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai! As we express great enthusiasm for Dr. Nestler becoming Dean & the exciting time ahead, please join us in thanking Dean Charney for his extraordinary service & commitment to Mount Sinai Health System.


Very excited about this one! Ilinca Giosan rigorously found a new mechanism by which HDAC6 inhibitors can alleviate injury-induced hypersensitivity.

Great recent publication by Dr. Shruti Naik and colleagues! One-time YAP inhibition with verteporfin promotes scarless skin healing 🧬In porcine & human models, verteporfin reprogrammed fibroblasts and boosted IL-33–driven regeneration. 🔬💉 🧵bit.ly/4j5JdHP Emma Guttman-Yassky
