NEW PAPER! "Pre-conditioning against cachexia: How prior exercise enhances metabolic resilience during cancer" has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Physiology! Congratulations to Drs. Sena Yamamoto and Swarali Paranjape! Read more here: physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.c…

NEW PAPER! "Network Model to Predict Age-Related Transcriptional Reprogramming” In this study, Dr McNeill and team developed a computational framework that predicts downstream cellular responses from extracellular ligand information. Using this model, they accurately predict how cartilage transcriptional programs respond to age-related signals from the IFP. Congratulations to Dr. McNeill and team!

NOW HIRING: Postdoctoral Research Fellow Position – Cardiovascular Research Lab Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital / Harvard Medical School. See below for more details. To apply, please send you CV, cover letter describing research interests and goals, full list of publications, and contact information for three references to: adraghici@mgh.harvard.edu.

@SpauldingRehab held it's Annual Dr. J. Robert Shaughnessy PM&R Research and Education Day in June, bringing together distinguished visiting professors, Spaulding faculty, and residents to share their expertise, research, and innovations across the field of rehabilitation medicine. Congratulations to @SpauldingMSK researchers: Dr. Hirotaka Iijima - Claire Donaldson Young Investigator Award Dr. Kandarp Dave - Outstanding Musculoskeletal Trainee Research Award Dr. Nicole Katz - Outstanding Sports Trainee Research Award

When she’s not researching and innovating new ways for muscles to repair themselves, Fabrisia Ambrosio, PhD, is probably doing something just as interesting outside the lab. Her research work focuses on improving muscle healing and recovery through stem cells and mechanical signals. Get to know her beyond her research in just 45 seconds. 👀✨

Finally able to share what my lab has been working on - evaluating biomechanical changes associated with #AFT #supershoe and signal to explain how they may contribute to injury. Press release from @MGBResearchNews massgeneralbrigham.org/en/ab…
