The Martin Lab at the FASEB Hippo Meeting!
This week, Dr. Martin and members of the lab, including Drs. Chang-Ru Tsai and Lin Liu, traveled to Melbourne, Florida, to participate in the inaugural Hippo Pathway in Biology and Diseases Meeting held by the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB). This exciting conference brought together leading Hippo researchers from around the world to discuss the latest advancements in Hippo and its role in diseases. The Hippo pathway is a critical signaling cascade that is vital in regulating cell proliferation, organ size control, and tissue regeneration. Recent findings have revealed its impact on several diseases, including cancer, fibrosis, and regenerative disorders.
Dr. Chang-Ru Tsai presents his study of Hippo and its link to glycolysis in cardiac fibroblasts.
Sharing Knowledge and Building Collaborations:
The conference provided a unique platform for the Martin lab to share our exciting new Hippo data in the heart. Dr. Martin presented an update on the lab’s progress on Hippo in the heart, while Drs. Tsai and Liu discussed their investigations of Hippo and its many exciting roles in cardiac metabolism. Our work was well-received by the conference, sparking engaging discussions and generating significant interest in the lab's research.
Beyond presenting their work, Dr. Martin and the lab participated in sessions and workshops throughout the conference. They interacted with top investigators in the field, gaining valuable insights into the latest Hippo discoveries. These interactions will be important to the lab’s future directions.
Dr. Lin Lu discusses his work on Hippo and metabolism in cardiomyocytes.
Looking Forward to New Discoveries:
The Hippo Pathway in Biology and Diseases Meeting was a resounding success for the Martin lab. The conference provided a unique opportunity to showcase our latest work on Hippo in the Heart, connect with leading scientists, and stay at the forefront of the continually evolving Hippo field. We are xx about applying the knowledge and connections gained to further their research on the Hippo pathway and contribute to a deeper understanding of its role in health and disease.
