Yesterday I learnt about the latest novel functional role of lymhatics: immortality!
Watch Guillermo del Toro new Frankenstein movie to learn more.
I guess funding opportunities will be plenty now

Great to see and listen great talks from former postdocs Sathish Srinivasan, Xiaolei Liu, Noelia Escobedo, Ying Yang and Josh Scallan at the Lymphatic Forum in Chicago. Really needed spark in the middle of this dark time in history and so many uncertainties about the future of research in the US.
