Incredibly excited to share our paper out today in @Nature! We developed a systems-based approach to deeply characterize brown fat in humans and identify medications that could be repurposed to activate this tissue. Immensely grateful to everyone involved nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

I am thrilled to start my own lab at @HITAC_MDC in Mannheim as part of @MDC_Berlin and @UniHeidelberg. The lab will focus on the cellular and molecular dynamics of adipose tissue remodeling and how this shapes organ crosstalk and cardiometabolic health. We are hiring!

In this Q&A with Rockefeller's Paul Cohen and @KoenenMascha, they discuss their recent study that uncovered the mechanism—and the enzyme—that explains how fat can stiffen blood vessels and drive blood pressure upward: bit.ly/49Xe1cc

A study in @ScienceMagazine from Paul Cohen's lab, led by @KoenenMascha, demonstrates how beige fat directly influences blood pressure. The findings offer a new target for treating vascular disease and could lead to more precise therapies for hypertension: rockefeller.edu/news/38906-h…
