Genomics Core Highlight

Congratulations to Dr. Taegun Kwon from the Genomics Core for becoming a sub-awardee on an R01 grant, collaborating with Dr. Daniel Trott of UTA to explore how senescent CD8+ T cells impact vascular aging and stiffness. Dr. Kwon will utilize his expertise in spatial and single-cell genomics to analyze transcriptomic changes in artery cells at a single-cell resolution, aiming to identify key transcripts involved in arterial aging influenced by T cells. This project integrates studies on T-cell immune system aging, age-related chronic inflammation, and vascular pathology to uncover the molecular mechanisms underlying these processes.

Pre-clinical Imaging Core Highlight

Congratulations to Drs. Ran Liu, Shaohua Yang, and Bibek Thapa for publishing a paper using Pre-clinical Imaging Core resources and expertise.

The paper "Experimental Ischemic Stroke Induces Secondary Bihemispheric White Matter Degeneration and Long-Term Cognitive Impairment," published in "Translational Stroke Research," mirrors clinical observations of post-stroke cognitive deficits and bilateral white matter degeneration. These findings provide valuable insights into the mechanisms underlying secondary damage and cognitive decline following ischemic stroke. More about the paper .
