Inspiring the next generation! 🔬 This week, we had the pleasure of showing undergraduate students from @CofC around some of our research labs. Dr. Susanna Craig heads a new program to provide research experience to undergrads interested in pursuing biomedical research.

Amazing #podcast with two of my #research heroes from @MUSChealth. @CortDoesScience and @NorrisLab Dr Chip Norris discuss the surprising time they've had together looking for the gene(s) for #hEDS. Great discussion of patient participation being vital not optional. #EDS #NotRare

Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) affects 1 in 40 people in the U.S. While benign in most patients, those with regurgitation symptoms often need surgery. A new study published in @JAHA_AHA suggests that waiting until these symptoms occur might result in irreversible fibrosis.

According to @NorrisLab, this is the first study to provide direct evidence that MVP causes regionalized left ventricular fibrosis, pointing to a potential need to update guidelines on when its time for surgical intervention in MVP patients. eurekalert.org/news-releases…

Earlier surgical intervention could stave off fibrosis in people with mitral valve prolapse

While common degenerative heart disease MPV is often considered benign, physicians are careful to watch for mitral regurgitation. Once MVP progresses to that stage, surgery is often required. But by...
