Her work paved the way for blockbuster obesity drugs. Now, she ’s fighting for recognition
When Svetlana Mojsov heard the spring 2021 announcement, she was startled. The Canada Gairdner International Award, a prestigious biomedical research prize, would be bestowed on three scientists for work underpinning the diabetes and obesity drugs that have exploded in popularity in recent years. “I was really upset,” recalls Mojsov, a chemist at Rockefeller University. The Gairdner award marked the third time in 4 years that the same trio of scientists—Joel Habener at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), Daniel Drucker at the University of Toronto, and Jens Juul Holst at the University of Copenhagen—were ho...

Early-stage human kidneys grown in pigs for first time
Researchers have coaxed human stem cells to form early-stage human kidneys in pigs—the first time a human organ has been produced in another animal. The advance, stem cell researchers say, could bring pig-grown human organs closer to reality, offering a new solution for the many people on waitlists for transplants. “This is a big step forward in the field,” says developmental biologist Juan Carlos Izpisúa Belmonte of Altos Labs, whose team has experimented with growing human stem cells in other species but who was not involved with the current work. The kidneys the scientists generated weren’t intended to be...

Periosteal flaps allow for single stage reconstruction of larger full thickness eyelid defects: a retrospective study
Arch Dermatol Res. 2023 Aug 21. doi: 10.1007/s00403-023-02689-0. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTFull-thickness lower eyelid defects after Mohs micrographic surgery are frequently referred out to oculoplastic surgery for reconstruction. Reconstructive options include wedge closure with or without canthotomy/cantholysis and tarsoconjunctival sliding flaps. Defects > 50% of the eyelid margin have traditionally required the two-stage Hughes flap, leaving the patient with monocular vision for 3-6 weeks until pedicle division. To demonstrate single-stage periosteal flaps performed by dermatologic surgeons can result in safe, f...
