A wonderful past two weeks, presenting my work at the 10th Anniversary @HHMIJanelia / @embl Imaging Mouse Development Conference, submitting the DP5, and doing plenty of hiking after turning the big 3-0 and celebrating with a visit from my mom! Onto the best decade yet!

Why do guinea pigs have so many natural bypass arteries?
In our preprint, we use this ischemia-resistant mammal + in vivo Perturb-seq to ask how protective collateral arteries are built.
The surprise: more collaterals may come from turning down “artery repressor” pathways, including WNT, hypoxia-response, and TCA cycle.
Knocking down selected repressors increased pial collaterals in mouse brain.

Excited to share our preprint, reviving @kristyredhorse's interest in the placenta from her PhD ~20 years ago! We find using 3D imaging that the mouse placenta is far more invasive than previously thought. Furthermore, we find a surprise from our favorite chemokine CXCL12...🧵:

We were surprised by CXCR4-activated decidual cells in these mice, given the paucity of analysis of this receptor in these cells. However, beautiful work out this week in Nature shows a population of CXCR4+ decidual cells associated with blood vessels and pregnancy complications.
