Excited to share our work @science.org. led by our incredible @tommyz626.bsky.social at @rockefelleruniv.bsky.social! By profiling 21 million single cells across life stages, we reveal aging as distinct, development-like transitions, with dramatic cell population changes in specific time windows!
A panoramic view of cell population dynamics in mammalian aging
To elucidate aging-associated cellular population dynamics, we present PanSci, a single-cell transcriptome atlas profiling over 20 million cells from 623 mouse tissues across different life stages, se...

This morning I'm posting my favourite inspirational quote from a brilliant scientist. From Charles Darwin's letter to a friend in 1861:

"But I am very poorly today & very stupid & hate everybody & everything"

Hope this keeps you going today as it will me.

i'm a zebrafish cell biologist studying skin wound healing. shown here are tissue-resident macrophages migrating towards a wound in a zebrafish skin explant.

and i'm on the job market!
