So it begins! The #EspinosaDiezLab is officially open for business! Looking for a #postdoc position working on #vascularbiology and #ncRNAs DM me!

A apoyar a la roja desde el otro lado de NY! @daniespinoso

Sunday in Nueva Yooooooork!!

📢 Aging hearts reveal their secret: vascular niches are the primary hotspots of cardiac aging. “You’re only as old as your arteries.” T. Sydenham, 17th century wisdom meets 21st century data. Find mechanistic insights and potential interventions: doi.org/10.1161/CIRCRESAHA.1…. #Aging

Celebrating the second year of the lab and all students achievements ❤️❤️❤️ Happy Halloween 🎃🎃🎃

So proud to see Dr. Callie Kwartler recognized with the 2025 Springer Junior Investigator Award from NAVBO 🏆 Her work on the epigenetic link between metabolism and smooth muscle cell differentiation continues to push the field forward. #NAVBO #VascularBiology 🧬

Highly recommend @GomezLabPitt1 and @PittVMI for your postdoctoral training! You will have a cool project and awesome mentorship with Delphine + the perks of being at Pitt!

New paper from our lab now out in press 🥳🤩: insight.jci.org/articles/vie… In this paper we describe the endothelial cell dynamics during neonatal hyperoxia and the role of endothelial p53 in this setting. @NorthwesternMed @NM_Lung @NUFeinbergMed

🚨 Excited to share that our latest study on the role of inflammatory activation in endothelial cells during the infarct response is now published in Circulation Research! Huge thanks to all co-authors especially Lukas, Till, Simone, and Ariane for driving this project forward.

Exciting news! The Alcaide lab officially relocated @umiamimedicine @univmiami @SylvesterCancer & is ready to thrive in this vibrant collaborative environment!#cardioimmunology positions available. DM & Stay tuned. Thx @tuftsmedschool @tuftsuniversity for an incredible journey.

📣Big news! The Blanco-Suarez Lab is moving to @SDSU in beautiful San Diego!🌅🌴 Excited to rejoin this vibrant science community and continue exploring astrocyte-neuron interactions in stroke and expanding to other models! 🧠Stay tuned for open positions➡️blancosuarezlab.com
