Swathi Balaji, Ph.D., in the Division of Pediatric Surgery, has received a National Institute of Health R01 grant from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences totaling over $1.6 million. Learn : t.ly/Ajyvu
Dr. Balaji Awarded NIH Grant to Study Heterogeneity of Scarring Swathi Balaji, Ph.D., assistant professor of surgery in the Division of Pediatric Surgery, has received a National Institute of Health R01 grant from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences totaling over $1.6 million during the five-year funding segment for the project titled, “Differential changes in energy metabolism in response to mechanical tension give rise to human scaring heterogeneity.” In this study, Dr. Balaji and her team will use the Texas Children’s Hospital Skin Tissue Biorepository that they developed to investigate how oxidative stress and biomechanical tension affect the energy metabolism of fibroblasts and scaring during the wound healing process. Understanding these mechanisms could lead to new treatments and personalized medicine to reduce or prevent fibrosis and scarring in the skin and other organs.

A friend of mine reminded me that "A failure is not a failure, it's an attempt at success. And there will be success, It sometimes just takes longer"

Born in 1908 in Louisiana to Lebanese-Christian immigrants, Michael DeBakey invented procedures, techniques, & devices that revolutionized vascular & cardiac surgery. But his mother taught him to sew & that helped him make the 1st artificial aortic aneurysm graft. #AngioHistory
