She became passionate about research in Dr Taben Hale’s lab at the University of Arizona and completed her PhD in Molecular Physiology at the University of Virginia with Dr Brant Isakson. When her sister developed preeclampsia, she became interested in mitigating future cardiovascular disease in women with complicated pregnancies. Lauren received a K99 grant to pursue this work and is thrilled to start her independent laboratory in the Yale Vascular Biology and Therapeutics program in November 2023. She enjoys traveling, outdoor activities, college sports and reading non-fiction. She can be found on Twitter @DrLaurenBiwer.Endosomal PI3Kγ Regulates Hypoxia Sensing (p 690)Download figureDownload PowerPointDr Yu Sun (Cynthia) earned her MD in Pathology from Shanghai Medical College at Fudan University in 2014. Following her clinical training, Cynthia joined the lab of Dr Naga Prasad in 2017 as a postdoctoral fellow to understand the mechanisms regulating βAR function in hypoxia. Unexpectedly, she found that hypoxia regulates endosomal βAR function by inhibition of resensitization through PI3K. Her current work focuses on dissecting the agonist-independent endosomal regulation of βARs, as acute hypoxia is the initial stress following ischemia. During her free time Cynthia enjoys reading and watching movies.Download figureDownload PowerPointKate Stenson is currently Senior Laboratory Technologist in the Department of Cardiovascular and Metabolic Sciences at Lerner Research Institute, Cleveland Clinic. She earned her undergraduate degrees in Marine Biology and Psychobiology from the University of New England in Maine. She joined Cleveland Clinic to further extend her hands-on approach from her undergraduate education to the mouse models of pathology, specifically heart failure. She is passionate about unraveling scientific discoveries through the use of animal models and during her spare time, when she is not imaging mice, she likes to play with her kids and take them to musicals.Dectin-1 Mediates Ang II Action in Heart (p 707)Download figureDownload PowerPointDr Shiju Ye earned his MS in Cardiovascular Disease at the Wenzhou Medical University, China, in 2019, and is now pursing his Cardiovascular Disease PhD at Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, School of Medicine, Zhejiang University, China. Dr Ye’s recent research interests include Ang II related cardiac inflammation, heart failure, and the crosstalk between the cardiomyocytes and macrophages. Outside of the laboratory, he not only maintains an active social life and studies, but also focuses on learning clinical knowledge of cardiovascular disease.GJA1-20k Reduces Arrhythmias in ACM (p 744)Download figureDownload PowerPointDr Joseph Palatinus is an Assistant Professor of Medicine at the Nora Eccles Harrison Cardiovascular Research and Training Institute at the University of Utah and Critical Care Cardiologist at Intermountain Medical Center. He completed his residency at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and cardiology and critical care medicine fellowships at Cedars Sinai Medical Center. His postdoctoral work focused on gap junction trafficking in the laboratory of Dr Robin Shaw. The Palatinus Lab is focused on mechanisms contributing to disease progression in arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy. Dr Palatinus’s clinical interests are focused on the care of patients with cardiogenic shock in the CCU.
