This year, U.S. News & World Report ranks UPMC Children's #6 on its "Best Children's Hospitals" Honor Roll. We're one of only 10 children's hospitals in the country to receive this honor roll recognition. Children's also ranked in 10 of 10 specialties, including 6 in their respective top 10.

This year's Pitt Surgery and Pitt Cardiothoracic Surgery Department Bahnson Lecturer Dr. Pedro J. del Nido of Boston Children's with Pitt Department of Pediatrics Division of Cardiology Chief Dr. Jacqueline Kreutzer, UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh Surgeon-in-Chief Dr. Victor Morell, and Ebstein's pioneers Drs. Da Silva

How they clean the windows at the Children’s Hospital in Pittsburgh🥰

Happy to share our new study published in Nature Communications. Nature Communications We’d like to thank the editor and reviewers for their critical comments in improving the manuscript. nature.com/articles/s4146…

Are you a #DevBio or #StemCell post-doc going on the academic job market this year? Take a look at Development Pathway to Independence programme Mentorship & networking to support the transition from post-doc to PI Application deadline Jan 31 journals.biologists.com/dev/pages/pi-p…

Very honored to be considered as a candidate for ISSCR Board of Directors. Looking forward to the opportunity to continuelly work with other colleagues at ISSCR to serve the stem cell community. Please vote! #stemcells

Happy to share our paper out in Circulation, in which we developed a novel and robust protocol to generate cardiac pericytes, the most enigmatic cell type in the heart, from hiPSCs. we hope it will help better understand the role of cardiac pericytes in microvascular dysfunction.

I'm sad to share the news of Paul Berg's passing today. Paul was one of the greatest 20th century biochemists who founded Stanford Biochemistry. He was a friend and mentor who I will miss dearly. His passion and advocacy for science and education was infectious.

Chilling piece in Science Magazine on the NIH's shameful role in "the China Initiative." Lots of ruined careers, looks like many weak or just wrong accusations, and apparently no due process. Many universities also should be ashamed. Great work, Jeffrey Mervis. Why did NIH do it?

Frankie D Heyward, Ph.D. Taben M. Hale, PhD If there are any cardiac development folks ready for tenure track assistant professor status send me your CV :)

🫀 Join us at noon on Wednesday, April 26, for the next VMI/HVI Research Conference! Wednesday's talk: "Study of Heart Development at the Single-Cell Level" presented by Dr. Guang Li (Li Group @ Pitt). vmi.pitt.edu/events/categor…

The Goodyer Lab (goodyerlab.com) Stanford University is officially open! Our group leverages molecular bio and bioinformatics to generate translational opportunities aimed at the improved diagnosis and treatment of cardiac arrhythmias. Hiring at all levels: postdoc/grad/RA

So, in our recent editorial, Ondine Cleaver 🇺🇦, Victoria Prince, and I pointed out the obvious: WE are the ones letting peer review destroy the future of academic biology. So, what can we do differently? Here's one idea in a very short 🧵 1/6 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Hiring at all levels: we look for anyone who is interested in organ regeneration and other extreme biology. For postdocs, please email me. For those who just graduated from college and looked for research opportunities in the gap year, you can apply here. aprecruit.ucsf.edu/JPF04638

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

Thanks for visiting and sharing your science with us Brent Derry !! So fun to reminisce the good old SickKids days with you 😁😁 Thanks PITTWormLab for hosting 😎
