#UVMLarnerMed 💚💛 research! Congratulations
@xinruilimemily1.bsky.social on your postdoc completion and your work advancing cardiovascular research at @uvmvermont.bsky.social Dept of #Pharmacology, focusing on areas such as mechanosensitive ion channels and #neurovascular coupling. #medicalresearch

Spotlight on Dr. Mark Nelson’s #NIH funded team and their discovery of a key mechanism by which #capillaries use #ionchannels to send retrograde signals along small blood vessels that direct blood flow to active regions of the brain. 🧪#neuroscience #science #scienceiscool #scicomm #medicine #medsky

Proud to be part of UVM’s research community as we celebrate our new Carnegie R1 designation—the highest honor for U.S. research institutions! Huge congrats to everyone driving innovation and discovery forward!💡🧠🧪🔬🔭

Thrilled to be mentioned in the Larner Medicine Newsletter 🥳 Grateful for the recognition and support.

Every edition highlights incredible work from researchers, clinicians, and scholars at UVM—be sure to check it out and stay updated on our latest advancements! 🔬🧪🩺🌟 shorturl.at/hrxkj

Feeling so grateful to have been part of the UVM Neuroscience Behavior and Health (NBH) Forum committee with this amazing team! 🧠✨ It was such a fun experience and an incredible learning opportunity.

As we wrap up our time, I’m excited to see the next committee take it to even greater heights!

Paper is out today @biophysj.bsky.social!

Amyloid beta Aβ1-40 activates Piezo1 channels in 🧠 capillary endothelial cells

Congratulations 🎉 to @xinruilimemily1.bsky.social and Luc Willemse. We enjoyed having Luc in the lab as a visiting student. So proud of Emily and Luc!

They are gorgeous!

Thank you, Amreen! 🥳

Thank you, and it is so good to see you here!!

Thank you, Julie ☺

Endothelial Piezo1 channel mediates mechano-feedback control of brain blood flow - Nature Communications On-demand blood flow increases are essential for brain health, but how flow recovers is unclear. Here, the authors show that brain perfusion triggers vascular Piezo1-mediated mechano-feedback that pro...

Here's a link to my latest research on how endothelial Piezo1 regulates cerebral blood flow and impacts brain function 🧠 It was a tweet; now sharing it here on 🦋
