Off with team ⁦@Metabolcenter⁩ to meet colleagues at NNF Center for Genomic Mechanisms of Disease at Broad Institute/MIT & Harvard!
Looking forward to great scientific discussions on genomics & medicine ⁦@broadinstitute⁩ ⁦@novonordiskfond⁩
Plus fall colors 🍁!

🧬Today the annual @novonordiskfond Center for Genomic Mechanisms of Disease Meeting starts at @broadinstitute. I am excited for some interesting days, meeting people and talk #V2F science. On top, Boston is treating us with beautiful weather 🍂☀️ - can it get any better?🧐

[Fabian Finger @FFinger_]

Final day of the 2023 @ARDD_Meeting is on. Time to say thanks 🙏 for a fantastic meeting and for giving me the chance to present a snapshot of our work in SkM 💪 - "Why fast glycolytic muscle decline first during aging". Spoiler 🚨: It's all about metabolism 😉 @Metabolcenter

[Carla Horvath @carla_horv]

Very excited to share my first author contribution to our single cell study in @NatMetabolism🥳! The peculiar SWAT cell develops from the same progenitor as adipocytes, secretes extracellular matrix and is multipotent... Read more 🧐👉https://t.co/zABh6WWeTO

@carla_horv @NatMetabolism Congrats! Super interesting.

📢 NEW ISSUE

Read the latest on metabolism research, covering: #metabolome of the human gut; #torpor induction in mice 🚀, #macrophage metab, #exercise on beta-cell function, & non-coding variants linked to #obesity (our cover).

Happy reading! 💫

@kasper_lage @Metabolcenter @tuomaskilpela @broadinstitute @MelinaClaussnit @novonordiskfond Thanks @kasper_lage - I am really excited to be part of the @novonordiskfond Center For Genomic Mechanisms of Disease and this inspiring collaboration 🇺🇸🇩🇰

[Sophia Metz @Met_Sop]

It's already amazing to join @broadinstitute as a visiting scientist, but even better sharing this experience with my family 👪 @Momademia #womeninscience

Fortunate to spend my paternity leave in Cambridge, MA (now until Independanc Day). If you’re in the Boston area and want to catch up ☕️, talk science 🧪 and/or have recommendations on fun things to do with an 8mo old, I’m all ears! 😆

[Sophia Metz @Met_Sop]

My maternity leave is over & I am diving back into science 🧪 in the @MelinaClaussnit lab @broadinstitute 🇺🇸 as a visiting PhD student from @Metabolcenter 🇩🇰

I am super excited to work in this stellar research environment 🌟 and work on V2F in adipocytes. Thx for having me 🧑‍🔬

[Jordi Merino @Riudecanyenc]

A postdoctoral position is now open in my Group at @Metabolcenter!

Please get in touch if you are interested in genomics, precision medicine, and cardiometabolic diseases https://t.co/tRtewivD3N.

Check out the exciting findings about protein homeostasis via brain-to-gut communication from the Hoppe Lab @CECAD_ published in @NatureComms 🧐📰 congrats to everyone involved

[Fabian Finger @FFinger_]

📢Fascinating insights on how ambient temperature🌡️ affects organismal protein homeostasis via brain-to-gut communication! Happy to have been involved in this new publication in @NatureComms 🥳from the Hoppe lab @CECAD_ ; spearheaded by @alexsegref

Ever heard about a connection between nepmucin & #HDL metabolism? Read about our findings in the Journal of the endocrine society @EndoSocJournals & a coding variant that links to decreased fasting HDL particles & diameter w/ @NTKrarup @Metabolcenter https://t.co/OtFhgwgP4I 🧵👇

[Sophia Metz @Met_Sop]

Thrilled to see our publication about the connection between nepmucin & #HDL metabolism highlighted in the @EndoSocJournals thematic issue on #lipids and #adipocytes. Check the publication here https://t.co/OtFhgwgP4I 🧐📰 @NTKrarup @Metabolcenter

Kicking off the CRISPR Workstream at the @novonordiskfond Center for Genomic Mechanisms of Disease @broadinstitute.

Videos on, plenty of interactions, mostly junior scientists and a great presentation by @gretapinta from @kasper_lage lab.

[Sophia Metz @Met_Sop]

A full day of discussing variant-to-function research at the @tuomaskilpela group retreat in Præstø is over and we are now going over to the non-science part of the day. Enjoying this a lot

@Metabolcenter #V2F #Science

[Nicola Pirastu @NPirastu]

I am very excited to see this officially published!
Thank to @uk_biobank we have been able to identify hundreds of associations between liking of specific foods and genetic variants increasing our understanding of the role of genetics in food behavior.
