In @ScienceMagazine we used single cell multiomics, human PET imaging, and in vivo lineage tracing to identify FAP as a marker of modulated vascular cells in coronary artery disease. We used anti FAP BiTE therapy to reduce plaque burden in vivo.

Another year, another retreat for the Foo lab, this time in the shabby chic Lotus Resort at Desaru, Johor Malaysia. Getting to know you, learning science from each other, scientific mentorship and leadership practice. @NUSMedicine @TheFooLab

Plz repost!
New Postdoc Position: Join our lab at UA Sarver Heart Center to develop nanoparticle & protein delivery platforms for cardiac regeneration. PhD in nanotech/biomed eng/pharm sci required; in vivo delivery a plus. Email: [email protected] #Postdoc #Nanomedicine #Regeneration

We discover RUNX1 as a nodal regulator of human cardiac recovery and uncover a druggable epigenetic mechanism in macrophages that orchestrates functional, structural, and molecular features of organ recovery @LavineLab @m_alexanian @Amgen @ImmunoFibHF

Our Spatial Transcriptomics study of human #aortic full thickness punches shows smooth muscle cell clusters in early atherosclerotic #plaque, and an iron-driven macrophage-like cell state that can be targeted to prevent progression @10xGenomics @TheFooLab

Organs don't work in silos !! It's time to track outcomes across the disease specialities, when they are so much metabolism driven today @NUSMedicine ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.…

We use CITE-seq, Xenium, human PET imaging, and in vivo lineage tracing to identify FAP as a marker of modulated SMCs in human coronary artery disease and show that treatment with an anti FAP bi-specific T cell engager reduces plaque burden in vivo biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

None of this team entered science to make a high salary. Several could well have a luxury life doing something else. So each time we get a chance to let the hair down and put fun into our science and team building, we make the best of it. A lab retreat to remember @TheFooLab

The wonderful joys of hanging out with younger people...and learning from them about their aspirations and big dreams @TheFooLab going into the new year (early) @NUSMedicine @CvdNus

Grateful for the plug for RESET. We are still on a drive to enrol participants..... free scans and tests, and a 5yr long follow up with the medical team... on a look out for causes and drivers of early heart and metabolic disease @CvdNus @TheFooLab medicine.nus.edu.sg/reset_la…
Episode 3 of CBmE&U is out! Professor Roger Foo at @NUSMedicine answers questions from @juliansavulescu and @sinead_prince about Project RESET, personalized medicine, and whether we have free will. Listen online: buzzsprout.com/2384633

last week we were richly treated to a big CV giant speak to us about the myths of cardiac stem cell ...there is too much fraud and handwaving, and we have to tread there carefully @NUSResearch @NUSMedicine @CvdNus @TheFooLab @astar_research
