Induction of menstruation in mice reveals the regulation of menstrual shedding During menstruation, an inner layer of the endometrium is selectively shed, while an outer, progenitor-containing layer is preserved to support repeated regeneration. Progress in understanding this co...

I’m thrilled to share my postdoc work and the first paper from the McKinley Lab! 🎉

We built the first transgenic model of menstruation in mice.
We used it to uncover how the endometrium organizes and sheds during menstruation. 🧪

Ecstatic to share our paper on nutrient signaling in the #EntericNervousSystem published in Nature! 🧪

We explored how neurons in the gut respond to basic nutrients that we typically ingest and tested whether they can distinguish between different nutrients 🔬

Check out our new study on the innermost nervous system of the body—the submucosal plexus. We define three neuronal classes, map their connectivity, and uncover their stepwise development via phenotypic switching. Congrats to all authors! #NatureNeuroscience #EntericNervousSystem rdcu.be/eoqXz

I'm thrilled to be opening my own lab this Fall at the @maxplanck.de MPI for Brain Research in Frankfurt. The lab is going to investigate the neuronal and genetic underpinnings of behavioral evolution. We are hiring on all levels. Don't hesitate to share widely and reach out if interested.

Congratulations to the new cohort! ✨

Can’t wait to meet you all very soon and hear about your amazing work.

Unpicking the Mystery of the Body’s ‘Second Brain’ Sitting alongside the neurons in your enteric nervous system are underappreciated glial cells, which play key roles in digestion and disease that scientists are only just starting to understand.

The Parsa Laboratory at CZ Biohub New York The Parsa laboratory investigates the functional and clonal dynamics of T cells during various immune responses. Using innovative genetic approaches, we will precisely track and analyze the behavior of polyclonal perturbation-specific T cells over time and space. We seek to uncover the rules governing the development of effector and memory T cells, ultimately enhancing our understanding of adaptive immunity and advancing therapies for various diseases, including cancer and autoimmunity.

I’m looking for a postdoc to join my group here at Chan Zuckerberg Biohub NY! This position offers the chance to delve deeply into the dynamic and functional behavior of T cells, exploring how their fate decisions shape immune responses in health and disease.
