The @ASBMR pre-meeting symposium on skeletal and immune cells — and yes, that’s my poster! Feel free to grab your lunch and stop by to learn how long-term bisphosphonate treatment caused pathological fractures in rodents! 📍Seattle Convention Center #asbmr2025

Our PhD student, Angel, had an absolute blast running the 2024 @nycmarathon for a time of 2:56:10!! He truly put our lab's work on bone mechanobiology to the test—proving that when the going gets tough, the tough get tensile!" 🦴🏃‍♂️ #MarathonMechanobiology #RunForResearch

Thanks @jaymilanpatel and everyone at @EmoryMSKRC for having me. I enjoyed our interactions and learning about your work very much!
We greatly enjoyed a visit from @karl_j_lewis @The_Lewis_Lab this week - we loved hearing about your lab’s work and vision, as well as incorporating creativity into our own research!

NYC! Snow is making it's way to the city early tomorrow morning and we're expecting up to 5-8". ❄🌨⛄ Stay off the roads if possible, keep your sidewalks clear if you're a property owner, and sign up for NotifyNYC at nyc.gov/notify for up to date weather alerts.
