Nature research paper: In vivo CRISPR screens identify modifiers of CAR T cell function in myeloma go.nature.com/3IeODUh

In a large-scale proteomic study of biological aging of 11 organs, the biological ages of the brain and immune system emerged as strong predictors of healthspan and longevity, according to a paper in Nature Medicine. go.nature.com/44nLb1M #medsky 🧪

Our paper on gene regulatory networks controlling hypothalamic and prethalamic development is now out in Cell Reports./1 www.cell.com/cell-reports...

Drop by poster B0008 today to learn about genetic risk factors for retinal detachment! We found that variants in VSX2 were associated with an increased risk of retinal detachment in the UK Biobank. Shout out to my PIs Ben Frankfort and @ryandhindsa.bsky.social! @arvoinfo.bsky.social #visionscience

Today at the #JointMeeting2025, Svetlana Mojsov, 2024 #LaskerLaureate, gave an impressive overview of how her research on GLP-1 revolutionized the field of glucose metabolism. Her findings led to development of novel therapeutics for #diabetes and #obesity. 🧪 @a-p-s-a.bsky.social

🚨 We’re hiring postdocs! Join our lab in Houston to study human disease using stem cell models, functional genomics, and big genomic data. Wet & dry lab backgrounds welcome. Please email me if you're interested ([email protected]) or apply directly: jobs.bcm.edu/job/Postdoct... 📩

Check out this tour de force work from @christ3na.bsky.social in my lab! Her studies reveal how developmental timing in the retina is controlled like an hourglass. The progenitor:neuron ratio shifts to control signaling levels and trigger photoreceptor development over time. Check it out!!

Congratulations to all the medical students who matched today! We are particularly proud of the 15 MDPhD Students that Matched! We can't wait to see what you do next!! @bcmhouston.bsky.social #Match2025 #MatchBCM #doubledoctor

Had a lot of fun teaming up with my younger brother and collaborators @bcmfromthelabs.bsky.social and @astrazeneca.bsky.social on this paper! We trained ML models that predict genes linked to dominant and recessive neurodevelopmental disorders @ajhgnews.bsky.social www.cell.com/ajhg/abstrac...

Baylor College of Medicine MSTP hosted the south regional APSA @a-p-s-a.bsky.social conference on Friday, February 21. Kudos to the student organizers for a great turnout!

Excited that the APSA South Regional Meeting was a success! 🎉 Huge thanks to attendees, organizers, Baylor & Texas Children's for hosting, and @a-p-s-a.bsky.social for making it happen! Interested in hosting next year’s meeting? DM me—we’ve got resources to share! #APSA #PhysicianScientists
