The liver converts food to fuel, governs your circadian rhythm and can rapidly grow back after losing 70% of it! Learn everything you need to know about the organ from Best Health Magazine, featuring #TeamUHN's Dr. Mamatha Bhat and Sonya MacParland ⬇ besthealthmag.ca/article/liver-…

Thanks so much to the brilliant Juliet Emamaullee MD PhD for a wonderful and interactive Vanguard lecture with lots of super cool unpublished data! Lots of opportunities for collaboration! Ajmera Transplant Centre UHN UHN Research #liverforeva

Stephanie Azzarello is 39, she lives in Toronto and works at the University of Toronto in the art history department as a researcher and lecturer. She also has PSC and is on the transplant wait list hoping to find a living donor. Read her full story here: theglobeandmail.com/amp/life/first…

Next week! 📢 On Wed April 17 at 8 AM (Toronto time), join us virtually to hear from Dr. Trevor Reichman, keynote for the regenerative medicine symposium this year. 🔗 to join: utoronto.zoom.us/j/81598552396 *RT to share* #diabetes #transplant #regenmed #symposium

1/9 Proud to share our latest work published in Science Advances this week! We used spatial proteomics to create a single cell atlas of ~500k cells from post-transplant biopsies to define key elements of the alloreactive microenvironment in liver rejection science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Important changes and welcome increases to student scholarships and postdoctoral fellowships. Looks like Banting and Vanier are going away.

Thanks to the amazing Princess Margaret Genomics Team PMGC @Farzaneh @Melanie Julissa Rivera and @Abdel, we are having ++fun tonight (and many more nights!!) looking at healthy & diseased human #liver with #VisiumHD :):) UHN Research Ajmera Transplant Centre UHN 10x Genomics CZI Science
