Proud to share this work with @kevinchalut.bsky.social and Byron Mui. Why do some injuries scar while others regenerate? Using digit tip models, we show the ECM is a key driver. HA-rich ECM promotes regeneration, and boosting it can shift healing away from fibrosis. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

So exciting to see this! If you're looking for an exciting new lab, see below!! Congratulations Joshi!! @joshifrenster.bsky.social So proud of you!

The Leading Edge Fellows gathered this week to celebrate Zara Weinberg, a beloved member of our community. Our 7th cohort of Leading Edge Fellows (2026) will be named in her honor. The Zara Weinberg Leading Edge Cohort application is now open! Due Feb 2. www.leadingedgesymposium.org/apply/

Zara Weinberg passed away earlier this week. She joined my lab earlier this year when her postdoc lab formally closed. She was a brilliant scientist, supportive mentor, dear friend, avid music fan, rabid believer in public transit, open science champion, and above all just an amazing human.

John Gurdon's research inspired me in my own scientific pursuits as a stem cell biologist. Starting my lab at @gurdoninstitute.bsky.social was therefore particularly exciting. Seeing him around daily only underscored his admirable dedication to science and research. RIP John. tinyurl.com/nha6z25h
