I am in Orlando and ready for #AIChE2023. Please reach out if you want to talk about injectable hydrogels or about the future direction of the Navarro Lab for Cardiovascular Engineering. LatinX in ChE LatinXinBME #NIHMOSAIC #ASBMBMOSAIC

Congratulations to Kolade Adebowale, Ph.D., Antonio Tinoco Valencia, Ph.D., and rest of the speakers. Really excited to have been named an honorable mentioned!

It is always a pleasure to be a part of early trainees success, congratulations Meghan Hefferon and the rest of the team!

Excited to read this!

Excited for this!

Go Blue!

Finding organ and stem cell donors is particularly challenging for individuals of African descent. If you or anyone you know might be able to help my cousin John in his battle with lymphoma, I would love to connect. theguardian.com/society/2023/d…

I rarely speak up, but when it happens so much… Dear grant reviewers: Stop suggesting male colleague “experts” to “oversee” research of female PIs who are experts themselves. Are the many, many pubs not sufficient credibility? This does not happen to male PIs. Trust female PIs.

Yesterday, the Provost announced 57 winners of the Do Good Institute Innovator Awards. Congratulations to BIOE Assistant Professors Jenna Mueller and Katharina Maisel, who were selected for their hard work tackling grand challenges in service of the public good. bioe.umd.edu/news/story/mai…

📢 Annnd we have another fantastic collaboration now published! Wonderful work led by Michelle Huang and Dr. Deep Sinha (Fan Yang Lab) on studying cell–ECM interactions in DIPG infiltration.

🎇Please join us! WBC2024 Meet the Editors of Acta Biomaterialia 🥳 Heilshorn Lab @ElsevierMS 🗓️Date: May 27 Time: 11:30-12:30 🌏Exhibit Hall Entrance Booths 111-112 👉Registration and more details: wbc2024.com

Today, we honor the brave souls who sacrificed everything for our freedom. Your courage and dedication will never be forgotten. To the families, your strength inspires us.💜🇺🇸💜🇺🇸 #MemorialDay #HonorAndRemember

I am thrilled to announce that I will be joining the UF Materials Science | Nuclear Engineering Program as an Assistant Professor. My lab will develop biomaterials to address cardiovascular engineering challenges. We’ll soon be recruiting on all fronts! Go gators!!!

By the numbers: @joann_trejo's postdoc mentoring and training programme has benefited >125 postdocs, 66% of whom are women or underrepresented in STEM and 48% of whom are now in tenure track positions. go.nature.com/4ecw2Dl

It might be summer, but we're counting down the days until the fall semester starts (there are 42, in case anyone was wondering)! What else happens in the fall? Undergrad and grad applications open for Fall 2025 admission! 🎉🐊 For more information, visit bit.ly/45ZTvDT!

Had a fantastic time with the lab at SFBiomaterials Northwest regional symposium! Thank you to the co-chairs Cole DeForest and Jenny Robinson for the opportunity to share what the Gilchrist Lab has been up to for the past year !

We continue to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month with some amazing STEMinists! We must always amplify the voices, experiences, and accomplishments of people breaking barriers in #STEM. #NationalHispanicHeritageMonth #DiversityinSTEM #RepresentationMatters

The Heilshorn Lab is excited to be attending #BMES2024 in Baltimore! Check out talks by Michelle Huang, Daiyao Zhang, and Narelli Paiva to learn about biomaterials for stem cell engineering, disease modeling, and drug delivery! Excited to see everyone soon 😍 Biomedical Engineering Society

Can’t wait to meet the members of your lab next year!

Waited twenty minutes for security to let us in but it was all worth it. Full house for the opening ceremony this morning ⁦SACNAS⁩ #2024NDiSTEM
