Rita Brookheart

I am delighted to share a key focus of the Brookheart Lab -- Keeping people physically strong as they age. We are grateful for the opportunity and support from the Longer Life Foundation to share our vision and passion on this topic. @LongerLifeOrg buff.ly/ZfNPy4T

We worked hard to get polling stations on both @WUSTL campuses. @WashUdbbs and others who want to vote in STL city (students, faculty, staff, patients) please use the NEW polling station in McDonnell Building.

@andyjudge24 Thanks, Andy! Nice to finally meet you in person.

@CellNinja Thanks for coming and sharing your findings and knowledge with us 🙏

Had an excellent time at the Advances in Skeletal Muscle Biology Conference this week.💪🏽 So many great talks and interesting posters. Thankful for the invitation to share our lab's latest science with the group! #UFmuscle

@kaesser Thank you, Karyn. I had a great time!

@LabNarkar Thank you, Vihang! That's a question that is on our list to explore. 🤓 You are right that a couple of groups have shown this protein gets cleaved and can be secreted.

@CellNinja Awesome talk Rita! Wondering if s1p gets into circulation as a myokine or stays autocrine, presuming my facts about s1p as a secretory molecule are correct!
