Come check out my FIRST EVER first author paper! Especially if you’re interested in the interplay between host defense and tissue repair! Turns out they might be more closely linked than one might think! 🧐💭

1st McKinley Lab grad student’s 1st preprint! @claireang.bsky.social studied how the uterus safely excises massive amounts of tissue during menstruation and pregnancy. Come for her GORGEOUS images, stay for her incredible discoveries. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... w/ @akelleher1017.bsky.social

Immunofluorescence image of a mouse uterus with epithelium labeled in cyan. There is a folded lumen in the center and glands branching off like bunches of grapes.

Excited to share my new preprint from the McKinley lab, where we explored regenerative mechanisms across menstruation and pregnancy! We thought specialized glands would regenerate everything. We were wrong. But the real mechanism turned out to be way cooler :) 🧪🧵 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

The Lung GRS was breathtaking in more ways that one 🤩 and the GRC opening talks were incredible! Very much looking forward to the next week 😎

More than 900 research grants worth $2.6 billion are in jeopardy. So is the 80-year-old model of American science.

First post on here will be me mysteriously celebrating the last experiment before the holiday break being a wild success. Trust that y’all will see eventually… 👀
