One University of Southern California biomedical engineering major wasn't even halfway through college when he developed a software app that significantly improves the way Children's Hospital Los Angeles doctors treat cancer. The 20-year-old developed a software app that computes in minutes what would take radiation oncologists hours to figure out manually. abc7.la/48eKJoZ

Happy to share this paper from Miao Cui, now leading her own lab at Harvard.
Our study is now online @Dev_Cell! We report a transcriptional control of cardiomyocyte proliferation & metabolism. This project was mostly carried out during my postdoc @Transactivator lab and completed in my lab with help of talented postdoc Tianhao. Big thanks to all authors🙏
