Incredibly proud of Bernard Ofosuhene presenting data from our lab on inflammation, adverse cardiac remodeling and POAF!!! Can’t wait to see Bernard and #HEATAF go forward! @IrinaRaduMD @tay_orw @DigiCard10MD @UMass_Medicine #PRISM #TranLab
Happy 13th to my favorite science friend and forever adventure buddy! ❤️ 18 years later, trip to the city is still a blast! Shout-out to our photographers for the picture, love, and chaos! 💕 #lucky13 #anniversary
So glad to be at the NLA!!! My favorite slide today (of many) 👇#Lipids
Great work by Crepin et al identifying distinct macrophage populations shaping #EAT expansion and fibro-fatty atrial remodeling in #AFib. Check out our editorial on the cool biology at the adipose-myocardial border! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/4259…
Crepin et al found that the #fat tissue around the heart can contribute to the development of the most common cardiac #arrhythmias, #Afib, by acting as a source of #inflammation. Learn more at ahajrnls.org/4csXmxL

In patients with #AFib, greater epicardial adipose tissue was associated with heart failure and adverse cardiac remodeling, beyond what BMI alone captures. Where fat is located matters. #AdiposeBiology #CardiometabolicHealth pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/4228…
Excited to share our work! Better mental health-related quality of life was associated with sustained lipid-lowering therapy adherence after ACS. #BeyondLDL #lipids #postACS

Never thought I’d be this excited about a liquid nitrogen tank. Very small milestone, new home for our samples! Happy Friday from the Tran Lab!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! Thank you for your support of our science and for believing in us! ⬇️ #IncrediblyGrateful #TranLab #LouRocs #Goodtimes 🦃
Also, congratulations to @tay_orw for successfully defending her master’s thesis. SO PROUD!!!!
Wonderful time at #AHA25 @AHAScience ! Couldn’t be more excited about the science and friends we saw. See everyone at #AHA26, or perhaps in @BCVSearlyCareer first. 😁

Our BCVS Chair Dr. Kontaridis reflected on the invaluable support of the @AHAScience encouraging the next generation of scientists to take part in this vibrant and collaborative community. #AHA100 #BCVS #AHA2025 @DrHelenECollin1
OSA and POAF ⬇️⬆️➡️ What’s the relationship!? Think you know until you see the data. Check out @tay_orw poster #TranLab #AHA25. It’s her scientific question ✨🤩 #HEATAF @UMassChan_CVM @UMass_Medicine @DigiCard10MD
