CHIP variants are often discovered incidentally in liquid biopsy testing, but is plasma cell-free DNA reliable when CHIP variants are the desired finding? 🩸@BloodAdvances @AlexBickMDPhD 🧵1/12

Please check out our recent pub -> proud of Paran’s (Bubba) hard work showing that AML drives neutrophil immaturity thru inflammatory NFκB signaling. A team-science effort uncovering how AML reshapes healthy cell maturation. ashpublications.org/blood/article/…

This work led by Dr. Ferrell leverages single-cell transcriptomics to characterize cell states across the hematopoietic stem and progenitor-myeloid differentiation landscape in lower-risk #MyelodysplasticSyndromes. 🔎 Take a closer look: bit.ly/42PVs5p

Congrats to Dr. Matt Jenkins on a phenomenal thesis defense! Matt will be in good hands with @TheElfLab in Utah!

For the first time since January, notification of a new NIH study section meeting has been posted on the Federal Register. It seems to cover multiple review panels, including one for the DP2/New Innovator grant.

Our latest review, spearheaded by @AmandaDoranLab, on the Bone Marrow Niche in Cardiometabolic Disease is out in @CircRes @AHA_Research @IUSMDeptMed @VUMCResearch @HHP_UH @CVimmunology @HeatherCaslin @brettheimlich @JonathanBrownMD @FerrellLabVUMC ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI…

Congratulations to @brettheimlich who received the @VUMC_heart Rhodes Scholarship Award for his research this morning! Very proud of all he has accomplished in the lab the past three years @VUMC_Medicine @VUMC_MedPSTP @VUMCgenetics

Excited to share this paper in @BloodAdvances led by @brettheimlich, @PBdoingscience & @alyssa_c_parker with @FerrellLabVUMC that uses mitochondrial lineage tracing techniques pioneered by @vangalenlab @CalebLareau, @bloodgenes to identify transcriptional consequences of #CHIP

New manuscript from our labs, collaboration with @AlexBickMDPhD lab led by @brettheimlich @PBdoingscience @alyssa_c_parker checkout the tweetorial 👇!

The best! Congrats to Emily and Matt!! 🔔💒

@drsomedeb Appreciate it, Som!

Congratulations!! @FerrellLabVUMC

@Brnda27 @VAResearch Thank you Brenda!

@FerrellLabVUMC @VAResearch Congrats!

Thankful to have the support of @VAResearch for this work. Taking care of Veterans with blood cancer is a great privilege and we hope our research will eventually translate to improvements in therapy for them and all patients!

@BrianOBachmann @EFSInsideScoop @VUMC_Medicine @vahsrd @VUMC_Cancer Thanks Brian!

@JulesBass6 Thanks Julie!
