Masonic Medical Research Institute - MMRI

Today is World Stroke Day (WSD) 🧪 WSD is dedicated to raising awareness about strokes, understanding their impact and at MMRI, searching for cures and treatments. A stroke occurs when there’s a change in how blood flows through the brain, causing brain cells to suffocate. 🧠 Here at MMRI, the Kessinger Lab studies venous thromboembolism, a condition that has the potential to lead to serious side effects such as stroke. Venous thromboembolism refers to a blood clot that starts in a vein (AHA). Using intravital confocal microscopy of large vein thrombosis, Dr. Kessinger has shown the ability to capture high-resolution spatial maps of the venous thrombosis inflammation and structure that will help identify potential treatments.

At a special ceremony today at Munson in Utica, New York State Sen. Joseph Griffo presented a New York State Senate Commendation Award to our executive director, Maria Kontaridis, Ph.D. and several honorees for their dedication to our community. Congratulations to our amazing leader for this honor!

My first visit after starting my new job in Arizona was to visit Maria Kontaridis, PhD, and her faculty at the Masonic Medical Research Institute - MMRI in Utica, NY. It was a wonderful experience touring their state-of-the-art facilities and engaging with extraordinary scientists and enthusiastic postdoctoral fellows. The institute is conducting impressive research in several areas, including Lupus, cardiovascular diseases, cardiomyopathy, autoimmune disorders, and drug delivery. Many thanks to Maria and her team for their exceptional hospitality.

Can you guess what week it is? It's National Chemistry Week (NCW)! 🧫 NCW is about promoting chemistry's value in everyday life. For the second year, scientists from the McCarthy Lab at MMRI visited local schools to lead students through a fun, interactive chemistry experiment. The experiment demonstrated how water and dry ice sublime to carbon dioxide. 🧪 We were thrilled to bring chemistry into the classroom and share the joy of science with each group of students. We can't wait for next year! #NationalChemistryWeek
