Meet Dr. Benjamin Ohlstein, our newest faculty member! He's studying the normal development of intestinal stem cells & how abnormalities in this process lead to diseases like cancer, diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease & premature aging. Learn more. ⤵️ https://t.co/k9CEEy2Lbo

It is #mitoawarenessweek! Learn how researchers in the @MishraLab
are mapping out how our mitochondria are embedded into normal cellular function to understand how mitochondrial diseases occur. Their work could lead to new clinical tools and therapeutic options. #mitoawareness

There are no effective treatments for the 1/4,000 people diagnosed w/ mitochondrial diseases each year. @MishraLab grad student Nicholas Lesner hopes to change that by studying how cells adapt their metabolism to mutations in mitochondria DNA. #LifeAtCRI

Meet Xun Wang, a former physical therapist who helped athletes w/skeletal muscle injuries. As a @MishraLab postdoc, Xun now works to uncover new ways to repair skeletal tissues by examining how changes in mitochondria affect muscle stem cells. #LifeAtCRI

Could changes in our mitochondria influence cancer progression? Spencer Shelton(@Spencer2268), a graduate student in the @MishraLab, is working to understand how mutations in our mitochondrial DNA could explain why certain melanomas spread and others don't. #MelanomaMonday
