It’s over 34 years since the first cause of mitochondrial myopathy was identified London Mitochondrial Centre by Holt, Morgan-Hughes, and the late Prof Anita Harding. Since then 100s of causes have been identified but we still lack a cure. #mitoawarenessweek #WMDW The Lily Foundation WMDW

Fantastic to be joined by #mito researchers from across UCL to celebrate word mitochondrial disease week. #WMDW #lightupformito UCL Brain Sciences Duchen Lab UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health The Lily Foundation ucl.ac.uk/ion/news/2022/…

Really excited to have been awarded the Bogue fellowship allowing me to spend 3months in William L Hwang ’s lab at Harvard. The Bogue fellowship generously funds PhD students/post docs to travel to the US for research or courses. Szabadkai Lab Umber Cheema @michael_duchen

Our #BogueFellowship recipient, Gabriel Esteban Valdebenito, had an unforgettable experience taking part in an exchange at Harvard University. Read more about his experiences here. ucl.ac.uk/lifesciences-f…

We are delighted to present The Keilin Memorial Lecture to Professor Michael Duchen in 2024! @michael_duchen’s work currently focuses on the dialogue between cell signalling pathways in mitochondria, and the roles of mitochondrial dysfunction in disease.

Congratulations Anitta R Chacko for this well-deserved recognition!

Thank you to everyone who attended our UCL Research Dept of Cell & Developmental Biology social yesterday and made it a great one! Here are some pictures of the event Duchen Lab & Szabadkai Lab

Great talk by HaoyuChi on his #PhD project modelling Down syndrome associated Alzheimer’s Disease using patient derived NPCs #mitochondria #iPSCs UCL Research Dept of Cell & Developmental Biology

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🍷

Duchen and Szabadkai labs basking in the summer vibes while taking a well-deserved day off in beautiful London! ☀️🌸

🎓🥳 Huge congratulations to Dr. Rob Tidswell on earning his well-deserved PhD degree! 🎉👏 Wishing you continued success as you embark on this exciting new chapter in your career! 🚀

@Michael_Duchen’s lab, with Robert Pitceathly (UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology) and Claudio Raimondi (William Harvey Research Institute), has a grant from The British Heart Foundation focused on inter-relations between atypical #strokes, #mitochondrial #DNA mutations & vascular endothelial function.
