Congratulations to @JNgo1412, @IlanBenador , Alex, Laurent, @MichaelaVeliova , @mikeshum22, Karen Reue and @OrianShirihai for our publication in @STARProtocols describing in detail the isolation of peridroplet mitochondria from BAT. https://t.co/6DtJJKlEaq.

[Orian Shirihai @OrianShirihai]

Blocking mitochondrial pyruvate import activates energy expenditure through lipid cycling. Congratulations @MichaelaVeliova, @maroliufrj, @marcliesa, @28carolferreira. Thank you @bcorkey, @IlanBenador, @APetcherski, @R_AcinPerez, @essam_assali, Prentki.

@S__Baksh Consider radiology if imaging is what excites you most!

Our paper proposing that MCART1/SLC25A51 is the long-sought mitochondrial NAD transporter.

First presented in April 2019 at a Nature Conference on Cellular Metabolism in Xiamen.

Seems like a lifetime away.

CDC calls out face masks with valves -- they do not stop spread of coronavirus because the valve lets exhaled air out. Airlines are banning them. Others should, too. https://t.co/4EK1F87orp

I've stood alongside @KamalaHarris in attempt after attempt to finally pass anti-lynching legislation. On the day of George Floyd's memorial, today would've been a symbolic day to come together and do it.

But one person stands in the way. https://t.co/Pa8pIyKzf3

Am I the only one being overly excited about this paper? A new approach to measure mitochondrial respiratory chain function by respirometry in frozen tissue homogenates 💪 and it works in muscle 👏👌🤘🙏 https://t.co/JNlwo4PsqJ

@APetcherski @MichaelaVeliova @marcliesa @OrianShirihai Congrats 🎉🎉👏

@embojournal @OrianShirihai @UCLA It's been an exciting journey, with amazing collaborators along the way. I think it will make life easier for many researchers!

Evidence

[NEJM @NEJM]

Data on 8910 patients hospitalized with a diagnosis of #COVID19 were analyzed. Neither the use of angiotensin-converting–enzyme inhibitors nor the use of angiotensin-receptor blockers was associated with an increased risk of in-hospital death.

@AbraarKaran Any idea why testing numbers have been swinging so much in the last few days?

[Ilan Benador-Shen, MD, PhD @IlanBenador]

@CoolAsANeuroRad Cool! This is highly relevant to my project on MRS-based classification. Where can I find this paper? My institutional login doesn't work in TMRI
