Stacey Rentschler Lab @ WUSTL

The Rentschler Lab is looking to expand our team! Are you interested #cardiology #electrophysiology #tissueengineering #radiotherapy? We have opportunities for research technicians, post-docs, and staff scientists! Check out the job posting below! wustl.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/External/job/W…

It's the 10-year anniv of the 1st patient treated with StereoTactic Arrhythmia Radiotherapy (STAR) by @DoctorPhillEP & @SBRT_CR! We've given many talks, been featured in media, formed a center, held intl symposiums, helped 100+ centers begin STAR & now treated our 100th patient!

Stereotactic arrhythmia radiotherapy (STAR) treats VT by locally increasing ERP, not increasing scar burden #AHAJournals #Epeeps @pmjboyle @Alicardsdoc @SBRTCR @brianzenger @carmenbergom @JulieSchwarz14 @RentschlerLab doi.org/10.1161/CIRCEP…

A role for protein aggregates in heart failure? This issue’s cover features work from ASCI member Abhinav Diwan @DiwanlabWustl & team @washumedicine on protein aggregation in the post–myocardial infarction myocardium: buff.ly/YOFkNCq

Early-onset colorectal cancer is expected to become the leading cause of #cancer death in ages 20 to 49 in the U.S. by 2030. Research is urgently needed to better detect and treat patients, argues this #SciencePerspective: scim.ag/4i3RSdS #ColorectalCancerAwarenessMonth

Imagine running a restaurant & suddenly only having budget for ingredients & chefs—no rent, electricity, heat, water, support staff, insurance, trash, toilet paper. This is what 'cutting indirects' did to every major biomedical center & hospital in the US.

Big #RegenerativeMedicine advance! New study demonstrates the use of iPSC-heart muscle to treat a patient with heart failure. The patches successfully engrafted, contributing to heart repair. Patient survived 3 months before receiving a heart transplant nature.com/articles/s4158…

If you treat lung cancer & have queries about radiation heart disease then check out this new @WashUMedRadOnc paper! 100 years on from its 1st description we summarise what is known (and not known) & highlight priorities for the field to maximise patient benefit

@WashUMedRadOnc @SBRT_CR @WUSTL @jmmrad @JulieSchwarz14 @samsonpp @DoctorPhillEP @MikeWaters121 @carmenbergom @SMarkovina2 @gdhugo @ASTRO_org @SitemanCenter Woohoo! You are amazing Cliff!!!

Congratulations to our amazing Chief of SBRT & Assoc Director of Clinical Programs @SBRT_CR -- he has been granted tenure by the @WUSTL Board of Trustees! source.washu.edu/2024/10/board-…

#SNOSTORM2024 is underway with Day 1! So much to learn about Cardiac Radioablation! #CRAforVT #RadiateVT #Epeeps @stopstormEU @joostverhoeff @DoctorPhillEP @gdhugo @SBRT_CR @RentschlerLab @samsonpp

Together with @American_Heart, we are proud to present our Collaborative Science in #SingleVentricle Heart Disease Program awardees! Proposals from 5 outstanding research teams were selected for funding, for a total investment of over $13M. Read more: additionalventures.org/news/announcin…

@AdamMay64908870 @WashUCardiology @WUSTLmed @DoctorPhillEP @cooper_dh @SDPrabhuMD Congratulations Sarah, you rock!

Special and well-deserved congratulations to Dr. Sarah LoCoco! @WashUCardiology @WUSTLmed @DoctorPhillEP @cooper_dh @SDPrabhuMD

We think this one is groundbreaking: Do you wonder how #SGLT2 inhibitors protect from heart failure? We show that #empagliflozen directly activates PANK1, rate-limiting for CoA synthesis, in human hearts. You read it here first! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Congratulations Jesus on winning the 2024 Outstanding Early Career Investigator Award at BCVS 2024! ⁦@WashUCardiology⁩ ⁦@SDPrabhuMD⁩ youtu.be/NabAYaOJkv4?si…

@RichGangLi @nih_nhlbi @jmartinlab Congratulations Rich!!! Looking forward to continuing to follow all the great science you will be doing! So happy for you🥳

Ecstatic to be awarded the K99 from @nih_nhlbi. Many thanks to my family, friends, and mentors, including my PhD mentor @RentschlerLab, for their continued support. Special shout-out to my lab mates and my postdoc mentor @jmartinlab. Looking forward to the science ahead!

Join us for #SNOSTORM2024 Sep 2nd-4th in Amsterdam! Registration is now open. You can find more information, including link for registration, here: bit.ly/SNOSTORM2024. We hope to see you there! #CRAforVT #radiateVT #EPeeps #CNCR @SBRT_CR @DoctorPhillEP @gdhugo @joostverhoeff

Heart rhythm in Boston is wrapping up! Great science and wonderful to see so many friends and colleagues 😊 @bjboukens @glennfishman

@DavidParkLab1 @glennfishman @NYULH_DeptofMed @EPeeps Very well said David!

I’ve always said that if Stacey is the right bundle branch of the Fishman lineage, then I’m the left bundle. Here’s to you, Glenn, our mentor and friend! @glennfishman @RentschlerLab @NYULH_DeptofMed @EPeeps

Congratulations to @glennfishman on receiving the Heart Rhythm Society’s 2024 Distinguished Basic Scientist award! As director of the Leon H. Charney Division of Cardiology, Dr. Fishman is a luminary in cardiac electrophysiology. Learn more: med.nyu.edu/faculty/glenn-…
