Very excited to announce a publication by an outstanding PhD student in my lab, Chang Gui, on the regulation of muscle regeneration by BAT. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3896…
Follow-up manuscripts will be coming shortly, as she defends her thesis in December!

🚨After 8y and many dead ends- we are excited to clarify how "stable" adipocyte lipolysis is potently activated independent of catecholaminergic signals while being restrained by glucose and insulin. RT and feedback welcome as we work from preprint to pub! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
To help young students/trainees understand the importance of the specific aims page, I will compare the specific aims page to a trailer for a movie. Anyone have any other analogies they like to make?
As part of our annual lab party tradition, we had a battle of foods. This year, paneer tikka masala! The winner was from the very delicious Himalayan Yeti! *This post is not sponsored by Himalayan Yeti*
I was honored to be invited to give a talk titled "Regulation of Muscle Mass and Strength by Adipose Tissue" at the 2024 New Directions in Biology and Disease of Skeletal Muscle Conference in Ft. Lauderdale. It's always invigorating to see all the great science being conducted!
Very excited to announce a couple of publications by some awesome @WUDeptMedicine collaborators! Very grateful to have been a part of these studies! @bnfinck @CellNinja @ Mary K Hastings (apologies I couldn't tag everyone!) pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3835…

We are also excited to announce we published a manuscript in J Appl Physiol, "Insights into post-translational regulation of skeletal muscle contractile function by the acetyltransferases, p300 and CBP."
An exciting new avenue of research for our lab!
We are excited to announce we have published a manuscript in Diabetes entitled "Excess Intramyocellular Lipid Does Not Affect Muscle Fiber Biophysical Properties in Mice or People with Metabolically Abnormal Obesity." pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3870…
Congratulations Chang Gui for 2 (yes, 2!) awesome talks at the 2024 American Physiology Summit! She presented data on "Characterization of Diabetic Intramuscular Adipose Tissue and its Impact on Skeletal Muscle." Way to go!
A sad goodbye and a huge thank you to Karen for the last 5 years of great friendship and science. Good luck on your next adventures!!
When you throw a promotion party with your bestie and you accidentally wear the same dress, there is nothing to do but own it! Associate Professors!

ON NOW 🚨 energizing #crosstalk in MSK disease workshop in Chantilly East #ORS2023. Lots of time allocated by @jill_beveridge @MaerzAndBlue to generate actionable discussion and priorities in this topic that many in our @ORSsociety community are contributing to actively. Join us!

Still in my feelings about meeting @ardemp & having #fatchat IRL. Thank you for a wonderful lecture! Excited to learn more about the role of DRGs - so much to discover about #piezo signaling in adipose tissue, infrapatellar fat pad & orthopaedic applications. #FatHasFeelingsToo
@KelseyHCollins getting a shoutout from Nobel Prize winner @ardemp for coining the phrase “fat has feelings too!”
