It's a wrap for 2024 TGHRI Research Day! Thank you to our keynote speaker Prof. Dr. Burkhard Ludewig. Congratulations to the Poster Award and PDR Award winners. Fun fact: 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics winner Geoffrey Hinton was the keynote speaker at our 2016 TGHRI Research Day.

Exciting new findings!! Thrilled to share our latest work in Science Immunology which uncovers how restricted access of newborn Kupffer cells to the bloodstream affects bacterial clearance, increasing risks of dissemination and mortality. As a bonus, we also made it on the cover of

So excited to share the first paper from the lab! We identified CD34 as a marker of the heart’s SAN pacemaker cells enabling their isolation from stem cell differentiation cultures, advancing future disease modeling and biological pacemaker applications. nature.com/articles/s4146…

Ever wondered how gut microbes control immune responses at extra-intestinal locations? Here, #theonlylabever reports how a gut protozoan commensal microbe remotely shapes pulmonary immunity to exacerbate asthma and limit the dissemination of mycobacteria. Cell ⬇️(1/X)

What began in 9th grade with a simple question—why do wounds leave angry scars?—has come full circle in the most incredible way. Beyond thrilled to have matched to Plastic Surgery U of T Department of Surgery University of Toronto! It truly takes a village to raise a physician and a community to inspire

UHN marks the passing of Dr. James Till, whose work with Dr. Ernest McCulloch first demonstrated the existence of blood-forming stem cells in 1961 at Ontario Cancer Institute, now Princess Margaret Cancer Centre. His work has helped launch the field of #stemcell science.
