Excited to return to Barcelona to present our latest work on organ-scale wound regeneration at the 2026 GRC focused on Multi-Organ Communication. Equally thrilled at the opportunity to co-lead the New Technologies session! #SyntheticRegeneration

Check out this beautiful work on mammalian wound healing! 🤯

Mammals have repaired tissues for millions of years, yet the instruction manual for organ-scale coordination remained a mystery. We present he Organ Scale Wound Healing Atlas (OWHA)

Today we celebrate #NationalMentoringDay! Thank you to IICD researchers and mentors everywhere who dedicate their time to mentoring and inspiring the next generation of scientists.

I’m excited to share our new preprint! We built a single-nucleus multiomic (snRNA-seq+snATAC-seq) atlas of leptin receptor-expressing hypothalamic neurons (LepRᴴʸᵖᵒ) and identified conserved cis-regulatory elements overlapping human obesity-linked variants and eQTLs🧠🧬 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Single-nucleus transcriptional and chromatin accessibility profiling of mouse hypothalamic LepRb neurons reveals cell type-specific cis-regulatory elements linked to human obesity

Leptin receptor-expressing hypothalamic neurons (LepRHypo) are key regulators of energy balance, yet a comprehensive, cell type-resolved, chromatin accessibility map of these neurons is lacking. We pr...

Excited to share the latest preprint from my lab! We present RESTRICT-seq, a novel method for precision CRISPR screen! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

RESTRICT-seq enables time-gated CRISPR screens and uncovers novel epigenetic dependencies of SCC resistance

Cancer cell evasion of therapy is a highly adaptive process that undermines the efficacy of many treatment strategies. A significant milestone in the study of these mechanisms has been the advent of p...
