Welcome Erik Lopez Gallardo! He is a PhD Visiting Scholar in our lab. His research focuses on identifying new regulatory components of insulin signaling pathways supported by funding from the IUBMB 2025 Wood Whelan Research Fellowship.
Isis Trujillo-Gonzalez, PhD (@TrujilloLab_NRI) and Steven Zeisel co-authored a new chapter on choline in Modern Nutrition in Health & Disease, a global nutrition textbook.
Their work will shape how future doctors understand brain health. https://t.co/ZLKAc5lckS
Just wrapped up the NIH Workshop on Prenatal Dietary Supplements. Great discussions on current dietary guidelines and future directions. Especially encouraging to see so much focus on choline. Looking forward to advancing prenatal care. #cholinefeedsyourbrain
