I started my training to become a cardiologist in 2005 at the Division of Internal Medicine in Heidelberg, Germany. The department is headed by Hugo Katus—the inventor of the troponin T assay—who enthusiastically supports and encourages his fellows to pursue basic science projects besides their work in the clinic. After first investigating cardiac autoantibodies1 under the supervision of Ziya Kaya, I came across a publication from Matthias Nahrendorf.2 His description of monocyte subsets following myocardial infarction fascinated me and I applied for a position as a postdoctoral fellow in his laboratory. At the time, Matthias had just started a faculty position at the Center for Molecular Imaging Research which later evolved into the Center for Systems Biology at the Massachusetts General Hospital with Ralph Weissleder as its director. The finding that monocytes reside in the spleen and are released on myocardial injury3 fueled our frenzy for this leukocyte subset even further and ignited various projects in the following years.4–9Figure.
