Help save the Dog Aging Project. Despite being one of the most influential, productive and impactful NIH supported projects over the past 5 years, the National Institute on Aging has inexplicably chosen to withdraw support for the Dog Aging Project. For now, I’m won't get into the details of the process or my personal feelings about it, as the important thing is to ensure the Dog Aging Project doesn’t end. If you believe that the Dog Aging Project has value and should continue, I have three requests of you: (1) Please consider signing the petition to the NIH Director here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/… (2) Please consider sending an email to your elected representatives here: actionnetwork.org/letters/su… (3) Please share this message with your network as broadly as you can Thank you!!!

Thrilled to see our latest work out in @CellReports! Spearheaded by @doudou_yu_ and in collaboration with ML expert Ritambhara Singh (Brown U). We developed a new ML pipeline to classify cellular age in scRNA-seq datasets from the brain. @BuckInstitute cell.com/cell-reports/fullte…

I’m pleased to share our latest preprint manuscript by Dr. Shengliang Zhang @shengliang15 and colleagues in #eldeirylab showing our over two years of collaborative studies with Dr. John Sedivy and colleagues at @BrownBoA and Dr. Bene Carneiro @bcarneiro7 @LanlanZhou #LegorretaCancerCenter @BrownUCancer @BrownMedicine @LifespanHlthSys TRAIL pathway suppression of cancer cell growth and immune cell-mediated tumor cell-killing in a senescent fibroblast-constructed tumor microenvironment The results provide helpful insights as we work to understand cancer therapy induced senescence as a drug-resistance mechanism and as we work to address it with senolytic therapy and activation of innate immunity. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Inside a quiet, tucked-away lab in Brown University’s Biomedical Center sits an unassuming machine that, in the right hands, is helping unlock the secrets of the brain — specifically Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. Read more @ bit.ly/CarneyFBL
