The Network and Mary Lyon Centre at MRC Harwell taking centre stage with MRC NMGN Cancer Cluster, MRC NMGN Haem Cluster, MRC NMGN Congenital Anomalies and MRC MitoCluster representatives either chairing or speaking at today’s #DMMgenetics sessions.

Today we take time to remember our very own brave mito warrior, Lily, who lost her battle with #mito 17 years ago today, aged just 8 months old. Inspired to support others, Lily's family set up The #LilyFoundation Please read & share Lily's story ow.ly/ZI7J50RrTJG

Perfect day at Mary Lyon Centre at MRC Harwell for the practical part of our Mouse Models of mtDNA Disease course. Great programme ahead incl Seahorse XF analysis w Dr Micol Falabella, and pyrosequencing workshop w Stewart Lab, Mitophile & Dr Pavel Nash.
