Awesome @MarianUniv Bone & Muscle Research Group presence at @MUCOM_Indy Research Day. Multiple posters and 4 of 5 oral presenters are BMRG trainees. Way to go!
Congrats Dr Gries!
.@MarianUniv’s own @KJGries! Fantastic representation of our University & @bmresgroup at the national level.

Excited for the new hood! This will allow us to move into non-mammalian model systems for probing cell-to-cell communication. We aim to study signaling cascades in simple organisms to better understand complex systems. @MarianUniv⁩ ⁦@MUCOM_Indy⁩ ⁦@MUCOM_BioMed⁩

This project was the #LoweryLab's first adventure into mechanobiology and was initiated after intriguing chats with osteopathic physicians #DO, physical therapists, and massage therapists about the potential anti-inflammatory effects of soft tissue manipulation. Turns out...(2/8)

So proud of all the BMRG students! Great work, Dr. Hum!
These two #HumLab & @bmresgroup grad students rocked their first research committee meetings this week 🥳 @Jordan_Matz & Mariah Castanon So proud of their hard work & grit during this semester of research mid-pandemic @MUCOM_BioMed #ProudPI #BMSsuccess #WomenInSTEM

Two important announcements of good news for the @MarianUniv Bone & Mineral Research Group: 1. We began venturing into mechano-sensing by soft tissue cells in fall 2018. @MUCOM_BioMed student Aaron acquired the first data using dermal fibroblasts in February 2019. (1/8)

Since then, @MUCOM_Indy student @princeladipo and @MUCOM_BioMed students @aricanloague and @taylor_h33 carried the story forward, extending the work to mechanical strain-induced changes in inflammatory cytokines. (2/8)

This is an example of a chalk talk where you talk off the top of your head and don’t know what you’re going to say next #thingsLowerysays

View research mentors as stepping-stones. We’re here to support you as step on us. That’s a rough metaphor. I’m gonna work on that one #thingsLowerysays

Big day for the #BMRG @MUCOM_Indy! All seven trainees from the DO class of 2018 matched! teapaw.org/juliahumphd/status/974…
Founding members of the #HumLab and @bmresgroup trainees, Tyler and Curren, both matched into their top choice residencies at #MatchDay2018 I'll forever be grateful that they took a chance working with me and helped establish our research lab at @MUCOM_Indy! #ProudPI

Replying to @DrJuliaHum
@JuliaHumPhD @jw_lowery Time for a Journal Club with @WabashBiology to figure it out! teapaw.org/wabashbiology/status/9…
Hey @bmresgroup! Would love to hear your thoughts on how osteocytes function might be functioning in this new feedback loop for body weight regulation: pnas.org/content/115/2/427

Despite the fact that he ignored his labmates advice about choosing a flashier powerpoint background, @nickweinstein13 is killing his oral presentation at #INPHys18 #LoweryLab
