We are so excited to share our latest #scRNAseq work CLARA: CardiovascuLAR Atlas for exploring cardiovascular cellular landscapes clara.baker.edu.au Baker Institute

Tune in to #CSANZ2021 Mechanisms and Preclinical Discovery stream at 11am AEST today to hear from our incredible Student Investigator Finalists - Anida Velagic, Ayeshah Rosdah Sebastian Bass, Charlie Cohen & @marco_annandale. Good luck to all! #phdchat #CVresearch CSANZ

Next on the ISHR Student Investigator session bill #csanz2021: Charlie Cohen taking us beyond cardiomyocytes and looking at the non-myocyte cellular landscape in the diabetic heart using single-cell #transcriptomics π« #diabetes #phdchat


If you want to know what happens in the diabetic heart at a single cell level then Charlie Cohen has to be your go to person! The detail and quality of his work is outstanding ππ

While we know there are #SexDifferences in π« pathology, the mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we underscore the importance of gonadal hormones and how they regulate the cardiac non-myocyte cellular landscape. See more below - thanks CVR Tomasz Guzik for highlighting our work!

For anyone interested in optimizing their cardiac digestion protocol, see our latest work in STAR Protocols now! We thank our co-authors for their contributions and extend our congratulations to Gabriella Farrugia π²πΉ π¦πΊ on her first, first author paper! star-protocols.cell.com/protocols/1052

Today our Research Education & Training Committee hosts inaugural 'Baker Institute Symposium' to celebrate homegrown talent, recognise recently completed PhDs, and award prizes to our brightest students & ECS. #phdchat Brian G. Drew π¦πΊπ¨βπ¬ @ejhowden @MonashCCS UniMelb MDHS @PAM_latrobe


Thanks Baker Institute Research Training and Education Committee for organising a great event!

Congratulations to our PhD student Taylah Gaynor for taking out the Baker Institute Rod Andrew Prize for 2021!

Thanks to La Trobe University for sharing my story. Looking forward to the next chapter!latrobe.edu.au/news/announcem⦠#latrobeuni Cardiovascular Biology and Disease Research Baker Institute

Next we have Alex Pinto giving an overview on single-cell RNA sequencing and how it has generated a unique perspective on the #cardiac cellular landscape π« Baker Institute Microbiology, Anatomy, Physiology and Pharmacology


Congratulations to Crisdion Krstevski Pinto Lab on his PhD mid-can talk on cardiac hypertrophy in a pathological & physiological setting. Crisdion has achieved so much in 2 yrs, not only is he an active member of the La Trobe MAPP Postgrads but has also contributed to 5 published papers!

A day in the Pinto Lab π¨βπ¬π§ͺrunning a rather large immunofluorescence stain of an entire study at once π π€― to validate findings from our exciting single-cell data! ππCanβt wait to see what we see under the microscope π¬ Baker Institute Microbiology, Anatomy, Physiology and Pharmacology Gabriella Farrugia π²πΉ π¦πΊ

Congratulations Charlie Cohen, PhD & all co-authors on this wonderful publication! We now have a better understanding the cardiac landscape using sc-RNA-seq in the diabetic heart! Great work that was a key focus in Charlieβs PhD π₯³ππ cell.com/iscience/pdf/Sβ¦
