Gemma Conroy nature wrote a fantastic news feature on #mitochondria transfer. It’s exciting to see so much interest! Many good friends and colleagues highlighted here! Check it out. nature.com/articles/d4158…

Mitochondria on the ALL IN podcast The All-In Podcast Thank you david friedberg for educating us about mitochondria. Covering our MitoBrainMap paper and Jon Brestoff's work on mitochondria transfer. @jason Chamath Palihapitiya David Sacks youtube.com/watch?v=rCrb4T…

It was wonderful to celebrate my greatest mentor, Steve Teitelbaum, and his remarkable career today. He touched the lives of many. In my case, he gave me the opportunity to pursue my wildest ideas. Thank you Steve!

Tissue source for #mitochondria #transplantation affects the therapeutic benefit against #obesity and #metabolic #syndrome. link.springer.com/article/10.100… Makes sense given that mitochondria in various tissues and cell types can be massively different.

This is one of the most mysterious findings about mitochondria.

Many thanks to Cell Metabolism for featuring part of my journey in their 20th Anniversary Voices series. It's humbling to share page space with scientists who’ve inspired me along the way. WashU Medicine WashU Medicine Pathology & Immunology #5: "Mitochondria on the Move" cell.com/cell-metabolis…

Thank you to the CureMITO Foundation for making a major gift to my lab WashU Medicine Pathology & Immunology WashU Medicine in support of our research on Leigh Syndrome. We will use these incredible resources to advance a new mitochondrial therapy that my lab developed for this fatal disease.

New organelle found in the Human body. The organelle, which is a form of specialized structure, has been given the name “hemifusome” and may help researchers develop new treatments for disease. nature.com/articles/s4146…

This was a labor of love requiring lots of teamwork over years, repeating in 3 locations! Thanks to all the lab over the years, giving their time generously to this team project, & our wonderful collaborators. The source of fat matters for anti-tumor immunity 🐄🐖🧈🌴🫒🥥
