Francisco Galdos MD, PhD

First big paper coming out of the lab @ChulanKwonLab @hopkinsheart @sean_murphy50 For more here: rdcu.be/dJq1Q and here: link.springer.com/10.1038/s44161…

@LahiaYemaneMD @StanfordPeds @StanfordMed @stanfordpedsres Thank you so much Dr. Yemane! We are looking forward to working together 😊

@fxgaldos @StanfordPeds Congratulations! We are so excited to have you both staying @StanfordMed & joining @stanfordpedsres!

My wife Sofia and I are thrilled to announce we matched to @StanfordPeds for Residency! I will be starting in the Physician-Scientist track in June, and I could not be more thrilled for this next stage of our career!

@GuangLiPitt @StanfordPeds Thanks so much Guang!

@fxgaldos @StanfordPeds Congratulations Francisco!

@annagloyn @StanfordPeds Thank you so much Dr. Gloyn! We are both thrilled to be staying at Stanford 😊

@fxgaldos @StanfordPeds Congratulations!!! Looking forward to supporting the next stage of your career!!

@TheSurajKannan @StanfordPeds Thanks so much Suraj!

@fxgaldos @StanfordPeds YESSSSSSSSSSS congrats!!!

My journey continues to advance care for patients with congenital heart disease, and I could not be more excited to train together with many remarkable co-residents, faculty, and staff!

I have had many mentors who have supported me in my MD-PhD journey, and I could not be more grateful for all of their mentorship and guidance to reach this new milestone @SeanM_Wu @StanfordMSTP @Will_Goodyer @HanZhuMD @Tahmina_Samad @Raissadati

Happy to share our new preprint on the heterogeneity and functional analysis of cardiac fibroblast in heart development. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

@MarkEPepin @SeanM_Wu @SoahLeePhD @Tahmina_Samad @rasmus_o_bak Thanks so much Mark!

@fxgaldos @SeanM_Wu @SoahLeePhD @Tahmina_Samad @rasmus_o_bak Outstanding work, Francisco!

Excited to share our work on FHF lineage tracing in human iPSCs & the generation of hiPSC-derived left ventricular CMs! A special thanks to all the co-authors for their contributions. @SeanM_Wu @SoahLeePhD @Tahmina_Samad @rasmus_o_bak See ⬇️ for a🧵 elifesciences.org/articles/80075

Lastly, when comparing our 2D protocol with scRNA-seq data from a 3D protocol (Drakhlis et al, Nat Comm 2021), we found that a 3D system has the potential to give rise to SHF-like progenitors indicating the potential of 3D approaches for modeling FHF/SHF development! 8/8

Importantly, we observed a FHF-like progenitor population during hiPSC differentiation that emerged from an early ISL1+ cardiac progenitor, providing a unique view into the emergence of the FHF in a human model system. 7/8

I am incredibly honored to have had the opportunity to present at the Weintraub Symposium! Wonderful talks by all the awardees, and incredible hospitality by all the organizers, graduate students, and faculty @fredhutch⁩! ⁦@WeintraubAward⁩

@TheSurajKannan @ChulanKwonLab @mkmiyamoto @SeanM_Wu Congratulations @TheSurajKannan and @mkmiyamoto!!

@ChulanKwonLab @mkmiyamoto apologies in advance to @SeanM_Wu and all the stanford people who will have to deal with Matt for a year hehehe

We are super proud of @mkmiyamoto for receiving the Sarnoff Fellowship and @TheSurajKannan for winning the Nupur Dinesh Tehkdi Award for outstanding research!!! You guys rock!!!
