Our new work on metabolic co-essentiality analysis that identified new lipid metabolism genes and their functions. nature.com/articles/s4225…. This is also a farewell for our fantastic postdoc Erol C. Bayraktar before he starts his residency at #NYUPathology Rockefeller University

Check out @mluzsoula new paper on metabolic determinants of lipid peroxidation. An equal collaboration between our lab (Ross Weber and Javier Garcia-Bermudez) and The Pratt Group nature.com/articles/s4158…

Gokhan Unlu of the Kivanc Birsoy lab has been named a Damon Runyon Cancer Research Foundation fellow for his work on how how cancer cells adapt to nutrient limitations in their environment. Congratulations! eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2…

I am honored to be named a Damon Runyon Cancer Research Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow. So grateful for this opportunity. Thanks Kivanc Birsoy Rockefeller University for continuing support

Glutathione, the major antioxidant in our cells, combats disease-causing free radicals. But how does it get into into mitochondria, the site of oxidative reactions? Scientists in Kivanc Birsoy's lab have discovered the protein in charge of this transport. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Our new study describing a "potential" mitochondrial glutathione transporter (SLC25A39 and 40). Congrats to all of my amazing lab members and collaborators involved in this work for the last 4 years. Rockefeller University nature @TriIMDPhD nature.com/articles/s4158…
