Congratulations to Deepak and Alice for a great study outlining the requirement for TGFB signaling in neonatal tendon healing published in eLife. We are looking forward to future collaborations. Thank you to Zerina for contributing some of the biochemical data.
“Nature is nowhere accustomed more openly to display her secret mysteries than in cases where she shows traces of her workings apart from the beaten path; nor is there any better way to advance the proper practice of medicine than to give our minds to the discovery of the usual law of nature by the careful investigation of cases of rarer forms of disease. For it has been found in almost all things, that what they contain of useful or of applicable nature, is hardly perceived unless we are deprived of them, or they become deranged in some way.”
-William Harvey (Physician-Scientist), 1578-1657
