It has been amazing to catch up with the global mito patient organisations at #euromit2023 🌍Thank you for all the incredible work you do to raise awareness of #mitochondrialdisease across the world & for all your support 💚The Lily Foundation Mito Foundation WMDW MitoAction #AMMi


📣📣📣 In collaboration with bit.bio, our next (#neurobiology focused!) workshop will be held The Francis Crick Institute on July 10th 2023 (09:00 - 13:00) 🔜📆 Join us for FREE (incl. via Zoom!) for a fantastic series of talks, stimulating round table discussion, and networking opportunities 🧵


Our PhD student Anitta R Chacko opening today’s Postgraduate Research Symposium UCL Research Dept of Cell & Developmental Biology presenting her work on “Investigating the impact of mtDNA point mutations using patient fibroblasts and hiPSC derived neuronal models”



Wrapping up an engaging couple of days with a presentation by our final year PhD student Gabriel Esteban Valdebenito introducing his latest data on #mtDNA point mutations in human iPSC derived myofibers #iPSC #mitochondria Now on to the wine to celebrate🍷



Thrilled to announce our work is out Nature Metabolism! Astrocyte fatty acid oxidation organizes mitochondrial supercomplexes to sustain ROS and cognition A huge team effort brenda morant #DaniJimenezBlasco Marina García Macia and Angeles Almeida et al! 1/5 nature.com/articles/s4225…



I'm thrilled to announce that the review I wrote with Alex Pollen is now online Nature Rev Neurosci: nature.com/articles/s4158… We cover mechanisms of prolonged human neuronal maturation, integrating lessons from model organisms with studies on species differences.





@michael_duchen's lab hosted one of our funders – Action Medical Research. Michael & his team want better to understand & target the cellular processes that go wrong in #Vici syndrome - a severe multi-system condition – and to test existing #drugs that could help. youtu.be/RYSLBbmlt0k?si…
