In our lab we study heart development and heart disease. To better understand these processes in humans, we analyze human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiac microtissues and human patient tissues. However, many lessons can be learned from other species, which tend to be understudied.

Happy to see this Marine Biological Laboratory feature article about our work on heart development in 🐸 and 🦑

What if we were to ... to fret less about getting and spending — and instead “spend” this precious resource on creative pursuits, ... on building stronger societies ... on caring for the people (and other species and places) we love, on taking care of ourselves?'

Two papers of interest of the Van Oudenaarden lab:

Single-cell method for profiling histone modifications (sortChIC), identifying "hierarchical regulation of chromatin" in hematopoietic lineages
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41588-022-01260-3

Another method allows for combined analysis of two histone modifications: scChIX-seq

Good read from The Post on climate scenarios, scenarios that turn out differently depending on what we do.

To finish the century at 1.5C temperature increase, we need 'to go well beyond the popular “net zero” goal for fossil fuel emissions. Rather, the world will have to be removing more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere than it is putting in — “net negative.”  '

Where is the political commitment to keep the climate in check?
