Had such an amazing time at the Presidential Dinner #JSH2025 in Kitano, Kobe! Wonderful chats and discussions with hematology/oncology colleagues, exquisite cuisine, and a stunning night view—plus, of course, delicious Kobe beef and whiskey!

We developed two novel low-input metabolomics&lipidomics methods(3K&5K cells)to tackle these questions! Among our findings: dietary-derived choline plays a key role in regulating the stemness of both young and aged HSCs!
