Thrilled to share that our Stem Cells & Developmental Biology program at JAX is officially launched. 40 PIs. 60+ trainees. >$160M in active NIH funding. Fundamental discovery and translational platforms — in the same world.

Can we interrupt the inflammatory signals driving clonal hematopoiesis? Our new study, led by @jaynathemistry, identifies neutrophil-derived S100A8/A9 as a potential therapeutic target to limit DNMT3A-mutant stem cell expansion. @Haematologica

🖐️ Rethinking regenerative potential: in @Nature_NPJ Regenerative Medicine, James Godwin’s team found that manipulating T cells restores bone regeneration in mouse fingertips, suggesting mammals may have more regenerative potential than we thought.

🩸 Aging and cancer: my lab’s new @NatureCellBio paper shows that clonal hematopoiesis prematurely ages the bone marrow microenvironment by inducing senescence, suggesting a new angle for preventing blood cancer.

📄 New in @Nature: Fred Varn and collaborators in the international GLASS Consortium found that oligodendrogliomas and astrocytomas evolve differently during disease progression and treatment, pointing to the need for more tailored approaches.

🏆 @TIME Best Inventions of 2026: the microneedle skin patch from @Jalili_Sasan and colleagues at JAX and MIT. The painless patch samples immune cells and inflammatory signals from the skin, with no biopsy or blood draw needed.

🔬 Nearly 450 experts gathered at The Rockefeller University for the first joint JAX-NYSCF Conference, marking 20 years since the discovery of iPSCs and 20 years of the NYSCF Conference. Thank you to all who joined and to our sponsors.

It’s been a big few weeks for Stem Cells & Developmental Biology at The Jackson Laboratory! A thread🧵 #JAXresearch #JAXstemcellsdev jax.org/research-and-faculty…
Peter @vangalenlab and I are very appreciative and grateful for the support of the Waxman Institute @WaxmanCancer to pursue our exciting collaborative studies!
#BloodCancerAwarenessMonth #JAXresearch #JAXstemcellsdev
We're proud to fund @TrowbridgeLab & @vangalenlab as they investigate how age-related inflammation may fuel blood cancers—and uncover potential paths to prevention. This is why connecting aging biology & cancer research matters! with @TheMarkFdn #BloodCancerAwarenessMonth
Very grateful for the support of @TheMarkFdn to pursue our biggest and boldest ideas!!
#BloodCancerAwarenessMonth #JAXresearch #JAXstemcellsdev
This #BloodCancerAwarenessMonth, we’re spotlighting 2023 Emerging Leader Award winner Jennifer Trowbridge (@TrowbridgeLab) of @JacksonLab. She’s looking for answers to a big question: why aging blood cells develop into cancer in some individuals but not others.
More on our Stem Cells & Developmental Biology program below. Questions welcome!

Bittersweet to say goodbye to our lab manager @griffin_nye after 5 years. He's kept the lab running & brought endless enthusiasm along the way. So grateful for all he's given. I'll miss him, but I'm excited to see him follow his dream of becoming a teacher! 🩷
I had the privilege and joy of returning yesterday to the @DanaFarber and @BostonChildrens where I did my postdoctoral training, this time as an invited speaker. Grateful to Zuzana Tothova for hosting me! It was a full circle moment and can't wait for the next time 😁

Wonderful start to #ISEH2026 in Frankfurt—BOD meetings and a rooftop reception! Inspired by the tireless dedication of BOD and LOC. Grateful for 3 incredible years with wonderful colleagues, and excited for the society’s future as new members join. Ready for 3 days of science!
Thank you to The Waxman Institute @WaxmanCancer for supporting our research!!
We are thrilled to be supporting such amazing researchers, including @TrowbridgeLab and @RossLevineLab. Check out all our funded research teams here: waxmaninstitute.org/our-rese…
