📢Preprint alert! Very excited to share the first preprint from the lab spearheaded by stellar postdoc @EloiseMLMrqs. An inherited mtDNA mutation remodels inflammatory cytokine responses in macrophages and in vivo. 1/n

I asked chatGPT to make a video: A 2-minute YouTube video for teenagers explaining what mitochondria are, what they do and why they are special (e.g. own DNA, inherited from mother, bacterial origin).

Congratulations @EloiseMLMrqs

[Dylan Ryan @RyanLab_TCD]

Big congratulations to @EloiseMLMrqs who won a poster prize at this year's @MRC_MBU annual symposium for her work in the lab over the last year 🥳 @MBU_postdocs

[MRC MBU Postdocs @MBU_postdocs]

Congratulations Dylan!

[Dylan Ryan @RyanLab_TCD]

Quiet a nice moment in my early academic career to be nominated for a research culture award 😃 @MRC_MBU

Inspiring science at the Postdoc Networking Day yesterday at @AstraZeneca. Happy to have contributed to this wonderful event with the Cambridge Biomedical Campus and @AstraZeneca. Huge thanks to Jonathan Lawson for organising this gathering.

Thrilled to share the last review of the lab led by @Tabara_LC and @MayukoSegawa on the mechanisms regulating mitochondrial morphology!!! @MRC_MBU

Just out in @NatRevMCB. Thanks @lisa_heinke for the smooth editorial process!

[Lindsey Van Haute @LindseyVanHaute]

New research shows the heavy toll PhD studies take on mental health, with a 40% rise in psychiatric medication by the fifth year. It's time to address the doctoral students' pressure and prioritize their well-being.

Completed my first 100+ km trail ultramarathon yesterday finishing on the podium in 3rd place. It was one of the toughest challenges I've ever experienced. I'm no olympian but amazed how our #mitochondria can power us beyond what we think our bodies can do https://t.co/G6WNd4XkWR

[Nell Yu Nie @NellNie]

An exciting contribution from our collaborators reveals an ageing signature from unique mitochondrial mutations that bypass selection!

AI is complicating plagiarism. How should scientists respond? https://t.co/KmRxvZWkxc

Job Alert!
Our lab is recruiting a Postdoctoral fellow to work on the interplay between mitochondrial morphology, mb contact sites, mtDNA dynamics and quality control.
Have a look if interested! @MRC_MBU @Cambridge_Uni
