Started my long journey to Norwich for the UK Worm Meeting 2023!!! Meeting my PhD student Paloma Pacheco at Liverpool Street for train no2! Herts Research Network of Women+Professors University of Hertfordshire uh Spinal Muscular Atrophy UK @SMAEurope SMA Research Cure SMA #celegans #SMA

Inspiring 16th Neuromuscular Translational Research Conference UCL I took the worms with me on my poster presentation to share what advantages invertebrate models can bring to the field. Amazing science going on, let’s keep working! uh Herts Research @SMAEurope

New work from the lab Nature Aging!❄️Lowering body temperature extends #longevity. We find that cold-induced #proteostasis prevents #aging and aggregation of proteins that cause age-related diseases #ALS #HuntingtonDisease in C. elegans and human cells nature.com/articles/s4358…

Only 45% of newborns in Europe are screened for #SMA at birth, compared to 99% of infants born in the US. You can now track the progress of SMA neonatal screening via @SMAEurope's new interactive map 👇 bit.ly/3zmBtwp #INSD #NeonatalScreeningMatters
