Drs. @izu__u, L. Miguel Martins, and team suggest that enhancing nucleotide metabolism could improve DNA repair and serve as an adjunct therapy to delay #AlzheimersDisease progression. 🧠 @MRC_TU

@GuiomarPedro @STARProtocols Very cool @GuiomarPedro

[Cambridge University @Cambridge_Uni]

Can you pitch your research in 3 minutes? 🤓

That's the challenge that students were up against at @Cambridge_Eng's @FallingWallsLab competition this summer. Congratulations to the winner, Yizhou Yu from @MRC_TU! 🎉

This #WorldAlzheimersDay, learn more about the great work by PhD student @izu__u!

Take a look at his video abstract to find out more about this project on finding therapeutic targets for Alzheimer's disease: https://t.co/bMZCY0aNhD

@MRC_TU Thanks for the highlight on this work. Credits to @MRC_TU staff & researchers and my supervisor @m1gus @fedele_giorgio for all the help! Hope this research is useful :)

Amazing talk by @coregenomics at the @Cambridge_SBS student symposium!

[James Hadfield @coregenomics]

I’m happy to be invited to the
@Cambridge_SBS DTP symposium talking about genomes and LBx alongside some great speakers.
Want to talk about careers outside academia?
Thanks to sponsors @AstraZeneca @StartCodon @abcam @promega @TakaraBioUSA @QueensCam @HomertonCollege @BiochemSoc

Cool work from @albertosanzmon1 and colleagues!

[Alberto Sanz @albertosanzmon1]

1/8 Exciting preprints from our lab. We discovered the 'when' of mitochondrial dysfunction matters more than the 'how much'. This revelation urges us to rethink #mitochondria's role in #aging and disease.

[Yizhou Yu @izu__u]

I'm super excited to be organizing the Neurobiology of Aging GRS @GordonConf with the great @AmandaKMcQuade !!

Please submit your abstracts early! https://t.co/Y7B9czk3on
@CamNeuro @BritishNeuro @BSRAgeing

[Amanda McQuade @AmandaKMcQuade]

Abstract submission is open for the Neurobiology of Aging GRS (https://t.co/FMFMIv9BCc). We would love to see a diverse group of trainees represented in Spain next summer to discuss mechanisms of neurodegenerative disease!

@kiran_r_patil @MRC_TU @Sdt36Suzanne Amazing work!!!

[Yizhou Yu @izu__u]

Very elegant work and very elegantly explained!

I really like this work where we integrated @uk_biobank and Drosophila data to investigate sleep, going from single nucleotide variations to behaviour! Superb effort @rebekkapopovic @m1gus @nunojsleal @fedele_giorgio and many thanks to @MRC_TU @Cambridge_SBS for the support!

[L. Miguel Martins @m1gus]

A video summary of our latest work. We found that Tribbles pseudokinases are involved in the control of body weight, lifespan and sleep. Work @MRC_TU by @rebekkapopovic @izu__u, video by @researchsquare , research published in @DMM_Journal.

@BRyanLab2 @BiochemSoc @elenabritti Congratulations! And best of luck for your CLEM work!

[Yizhou Yu @izu__u]

Many thanks @BritToxSoc for organizing a superb event. I'm super grateful for the interest in our work. Thanks to my mentors @m1gus @A_Amunts @ItsBiniR @CaTFFranco and Andy. We are working on this and hope to give you updates soon! @MRC_TU @Cambridge_SBS
