Thrilled to share that Ashley Murphy's vascularised fat microchip is published in #Small with Rose Ann Franco! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... Ash engineered platforms to differentiate adipose tissue simultaneous to vascularisation, and found vessels significantly enhanced fat formation.

@arc-tracker.bsky.social is there a reason to the order of a rejoinder’s detailed reviewer comments? I remember hearing it’s in order of scores (first=highest rank) but unsure if that’s correct. #LP25r1

I love marrow RBC production! Some prior studies found OBs to be a local source of EPO in marrow endosteal niches - I don’t see it in your figures but you think it could be related?

Synthetic peripheral vascular grafts are plagued by high rates of restenosis due to nonphysiological mechanics. The brilliant Sabrina engineered a patient-specific FSI CFD pipeline to identify how bypass graft materials and surgical anastamosis angle can achieve more physiological mechanics.

So we proposed #SuperPlots, which superimpose sample-to-sample summary data on top of the cell-level distribution. It's a simple way to convey both variability of the underlying data and the repeatability of the experiment. Here, sample means are overlaid on a violin plot of all the cell data.

Sam Lord @samjlord.bsky.social · 18/11/2024

You an even go as far as to color-code each cell-level datapoint by the experimental run it came from, so the reader can see if there if the cell variability is clustered or dispersed.

Q: What's wrong with these plots? A: Pooling cell-level measurements across multiple runs conceals experimental reproducibility. Read more in JCB (with @fritzlaylin.bsky.social @katrinavelle.bsky.social & Dyche Mullins): rupress.org/jcb/article/...
