Thank you for being part of our journey in advancing science. Here’s to a successful and innovative New Year! 🧪🎉  Last week, our Senior Scientific Product Specialist Larry Agbor, Ph.D, M.S had the opportunity to conduct a hands-on training session at the Rhian Touyz, MBBCh, PhD, FRCP, FRSE, FCAHS, FMedSci Laboratory at McGill University. The session provided researchers with in-depth guidance on maximizing the system’s capabilities to advance their vascular studies using the 114p pressure myograph system.
Thank you, McGill, for the warm welcome. We’re looking forward to seeing how this new knowledge and technology will fuel future discoveries! For more information, visit: https://www.dmt.dk/pressure-myograph-114p.html #Training #VascularResearch #CustomerSupport #McGillUniversity #ScientificInnovation  🔬 This week, our product specialist Bill Wisniewski visited Dr. Yabing Chen’s lab at Oregon Health & Science University for an in-depth training session on the 620M & MyoDAQ! It was a great opportunity to collaborate directly with the lab team, diving into advanced features and techniques to help streamline their research and enhance their workflow.
Thank you to the team Erandi Velazquez-Miranda, Ph.D., Marco Bravo, Yong Sun & Zhehao Zhu for the warm welcome and engaging session. We’re excited to support the impactful work being done at OHSU! For more information, visit: https://www.dmt.dk/multi-myograph-620m.html // https://www.dmt.dk/myodaq.html #LabTraining #OHSU #ScientificResearch #InnovationInAction  Jessica Rippamonti, a Graduate Research Assistant at the University of North Texas, is at the forefront of groundbreaking research focused on patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), a condition in which a blood vessel vital to the development of babies in utero (the ductus arteriosus) is stuck open after birth. This is an issue affecting a significant percentage of premature babies. Once considered a severe and potentially deadly condition, the PDA can be a challenging issue in neonatal care. Jessica’s research is dedicated to understanding how this vessel can be manipulated, with the goal of developing less invasive treatments that reduce the impact on these vulnerable infants.
The ductus arteriosus (DA) plays a crucial role in organ development and is present in all land vertebrates, making it an evolutionarily conserved feature. Jessica’s work primarily involves studying this vessel in chicken embryos. Her experiments are conducted using a DMT wire myograph, a “versatile tool” that has allowed her to explore everything from the arteries of embryonic chickens to those of 4-5 year old alligators. This versatility has been essential in investigating the various pathways that can influence the DA, particularly in finding ways to close the vessel by enhancing actin fibers or even open the vessel in specialized circumstances. Despite the field being relatively small with limited publications, Jessica is passionate about scientific communication. She values the opportunity to present her findings at specialized meetings and enjoys teaching others about the significance of her work. Her ultimate goal is to make people care about this crucial area of research. Jessica’s advice to aspiring researchers is to "be gritty and persevere." She encourages them to appreciate the journey, even if the next step isn’t the final goal they envision. Her dedication and innovative approach are paving the way for new treatments that could significantly improve the lives of premature infants.  Our Sr Scientific Product Specialist Larry Agbor, Ph.D, M.S recently completed a successful installation of pressure and wire myograph systems at the University of Colorado Denver. These advanced tools will enable groundbreaking research into vascular function and physiology. We’re thrilled to support such a prestigious institution in pushing the boundaries of scientific discovery!

In this "How To" video, you will be learning about the proper normalization procedure for vessels using the DMT MyoNORM Software. Product Link: MyoNORM To learn more visit our Resources Page  Dr. Michael Hill: A Pioneer in Vascular Research Dr. Michael Hill has dedicated his career to uncovering the mysteries of small blood vessels and their mechanical properties, focusing on how these properties influence vascular function and overall health. His research is particularly vital for understanding the "myogenic response," a mechanism by which blood vessels react to pressure changes, and its implications for conditions such as diabetes and vascular stiffness. Inspiration & Research Impact Dr. Hill's inspiration to study the mechanical properties of small blood vessels stems from his desire to understand how blood flow is regulated, especially in diabetic patients. His research sheds light on how blood vessels respond to mechanical stimuli and how these responses affect vascular health. By studying the myogenic response, Dr. Hill aims to develop better treatments for diabetes and arterial stiffening, a common issue that can lead to severe health complications. Dr. Hill's work significantly advances the scientific community's understanding of vessel function, particularly the relationship between tension, pressure, and vessel diameter. This knowledge is crucial for developing strategies to treat arterial stiffening, which can have widespread health benefits. By improving our understanding of how blood vessels function and respond to mechanical stress, Dr. Hill's research holds promise for creating more effective treatments for cardiovascular diseases. Exciting Projects & Discoveries Throughout his research, Dr. Hill has encountered several unexpected findings. One of the most surprising was the variation between arteries within different vascular beds. His studies revealed that a 100-micrometer vessel does not function the same across various parts of the body. For example, skeletal muscle arteries and mesenteric arteries have elaborate protein structures on their exteriors, which can significantly impact their function. In contrast, cerebral arteries, protected within the skull and subjected to less external forces, lack these protein structures. These insights were made possible through advanced confocal imaging and myograph force measurement experiments. One of the most recent and exciting projects in Dr. Hill's lab involves research conducted by Dr. Luke Sun, a member of his team. Dr. Sun's work on cerebral vessels has shown that these cells within these vessels quickly remodel in response to pressure changes by changing the distribution of contractile proteins and adhesion molecules, a discovery that has already resulted in a published paper. This project exemplifies the innovative and impactful research taking place under Dr. Hill's guidance. A Message for Aspiring Researchers In his time as a researcher and in related roles such as associate editor for the journal Metabolism, Clinical and Experimental, Dr. Hill has worked with many up and coming researchers looking to make their mark in the cardiovascular field and offers invaluable advice: never give up. Rejected grants and publications are part of the journey, and it's crucial to listen to feedback and build on it. He encourages young researchers to publish their findings and write grants to establish their presence in the scientific community. Dr. Michael Hill's contributions to vascular research are invaluable, providing insights that have the potential to improve societal cardiovascular health. His dedication and innovative approach has allowed for collaboration with researchers worldwide, exemplifying the impact that persistence and passion can have in the scientific community. These qualities are evident in his words: "It's the only career where you get paid to be a treasure hunter."
