Research led by Swagata Goswami, Ph.D., found that a high-fat diet increased ceramides linked to colorectal cancer spread in mouse models. Blocking their production reduced liver metastases. bit.ly/3TGqUlw #EinsteinMed #ColorectalCancer #CancerResearch #Metastasis #MECCC – at Bronx, NY

This is the hardest project I've ever worked on, and I couldn't be prouder of Elie, Soyoun, and the rest of the team in finally getting it across the finish line!
After a long journey through review, our paper is finally out in Nature Communications. We started with a simple problem: The visual cortex is strongly modulated by movement. So how can it represent the visual world without movement interfering with everything? 🧵

25 years after 9/11, we remember those lost and honor the responders still living with its effects. Research led by Einstein's Dr. Amit Verma linked toxic WTC dust to mutations that made responders nearly 6x likelier to develop leukemia. bit.ly/4xQVdVr #NeverForget – at Bronx, NY

Check out the latest on Geroscience from my reecnt interview for the academy
Episode 3 of #InsideGeroscience is now live! What if, instead of waiting for diseases to develop, we could target the underlying biology of aging itself? In the latest episode, Prof. Nir Barzilai discusses the foundation of the field: through geroscience research, we may be able to delay aging, prevent multiple age-related diseases, and extend healthspan and lifespan.

Excited to share our work, now online in Blood Cancer Discovery! We systematically dissected germline noncoding variants influencing clonal hematopoiesis using MPRA. Congrats to Trieu Nguyen, @JeejanJessica and the team. Thanks to @r_tewhey and his team for the collaboration!

What causes the intestine to lose its ability to repair itself as we age? New research from Derek Huffman, Ph.D., and colleagues, published in @NatureAging, points to chronic inflammation and suggests some of its effects may be reversible. Learn more: montefioreeinstein.org/news/… – at Bronx, NY
