Grateful for the excellent commentary of @rileybehanbush's recent paper in @TheEndoSociety . Advances and challenges in studying effects of EDCs on tissue-resident macrophages in inflammation academic.oup.com/jes/article…
Great having so much of my lab at #BMES2025. This is the first conference for 3 of them and has been very inspiring.
Great to have the lab out for lunch to celebrate @rileybehanbush 's last day in the lab before she returns to clinic. I'm fortunate to work with a great group of people @iowabme

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the environment have been linked to increased risks of diabetes, obesity, and metabolic syndrome. A study traces how PCB exposure shifts adipose tissue macrophage cells into an inflammatory phenotype. In PNAS Nexus: ow.ly/UNP750VyZ7V
ALT A warning sign explains that fish caught in portions of the Potomac River between Maryland and Virginia could contain toxic polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs).
Very happy to share our latest paper out now in @PNASNexus ! This paper led by @rileybehanbush shows the profound impacts of PCBs on macrophage plasticity. Thanks @SRP_NIEHS @NIH_NIEHS for supporting this important work. academic.oup.com/pnasnexus/a…

Please consider submitting! I’d also like to announce that Dr. Sarah Calve (UC Boulder @CalveLab) and Dr. Lauren Black (Tufts @Black_Lab_TU) will be co-editors for the 2025 special issue!
In addition to representing @iowabme , I will also be representing my own lab. Be sure to stop by our posters to chat about some interesting work we (@ProfEdSander ) have been doing with adipose spheroids.
I'm excited to be representing @iowabme at #BMES2024 in Baltimore. We are HIRING! If you are on the market and planning research involving the lungs or pulmonary system shoot me a direct message, I'd love to tell you more about opportunities at Iowa. jobs.uiowa.edu/faculty/view/…
Beyond proud of @rileybehanbush and happy for her to receive this award! She's an outstanding representative of @iowabme and @IowaSRP and we have some exciting research in the works! Full speed ahead!
So honored to have received an NRSA F30 award from the @NIEHS. Truly could not have done it without the help of an awesome mentor (@JamesAnkrum), incredible labmates, and at least a little bit of luck!
Very happy to share our latest @IowaSRP @UIowaResearch publication on highly reproducible #adipose spheroids! This is a detailed protocol inspired by so many collaborators who have found this platform useful. Use and enjoy! doi.org/10.1080/21623945.202…
If you saw Jesse Liszewski's excellent talk at this year's @SB3Corg meeting, this is the results t paper from his work.
