Genomics Core Highlight

Congratulations to Dr. Taegun Kwon from the Genomics Core for becoming a sub-awardee on an R01 grant, collaborating with Dr. Daniel Trott of UTA to explore how senescent CD8+ T cells impact vascular aging and stiffness. Dr. Kwon will utilize his expertise in spatial and single-cell genomics to analyze transcriptomic changes in artery cells at a single-cell resolution, aiming to identify key transcripts involved in arterial aging influenced by T cells. This project integrates studies on T-cell immune system aging, age-related chronic inflammation, and vascular pathology to uncover the molecular mechanisms underlying these processes.

HSC Genomics Core is dedicated to advancing research through state-of-the-art genomic technologies and expertise. The Core offers comprehensive services in genomic analysis, including next-generation sequencing, single-cell genomics, transcriptomics, and bioinformatics support. We collaborate closely with researchers across disciplines to facilitate innovative discoveries and address complex biological questions.
