If you happen to be in Copenhagen next Friday and are interested in muscle metabolism, you are welcome to join this August Krogh-symposium:

[Institut for Idræt og Ernæring @NEXSKU]

'Regulatory Mechanisms in #MuscleMetabolism' - mini-symposium arranged by the #AugustKroghClub

The symposium features five international speakers - among them @davidjamesoz @martamurgia ⁦@ZhenYanLab

@jens_lund @NatMetabolism Thanks! Also makes me a bit worried about all the substrates we use for mitochondrial assays, which are almost all sodium salts 😳

[DenisPBlondin @DenisPBlondin]

✅Love cold exposure❄️, heat exposure🔥, or exercise physiology🚴?
✅Looking to do an MSc/PhD/Postdoc🔬?
✅Interested in learning how to perform PET imaging, high-resolution respirometry, stable isotope methods or indirect calorimetry?

Come join us in Sherbrooke, Canada 🇨🇦!

@DenisPBlondin @hubermanlab @joerogan Thanks @DenisPBlondin! What are your thoughts on why adipose thermogenesis has been getting much more focus as a therapeutic target than sk.muscle thermogenesis?

[DenisPBlondin @DenisPBlondin]

It's winter☃️in the North, which means time to talk about the BENEFITS of the cold!

This year, more than any other, we've heard ppl practicing various forms of cold exposure thanks to @hubermanlab, @joerogan etc.

So here's a shallow dive into the knowns + unknowns of cold 🧵

Registration is now open for our course in August. It is both for Danish PhD student and international students and faculty. Please visit https://t.co/JlhktGPELQ for more information.
The focus will be on mitochondria, weight loss, aging and exercise.

We are having fun with laser microdissection on the @UCPH_BRIDGE course 🥳

[Jens Frey Halling @jens_halling]

Impressive study with a great message! Wondering if there is an evolutionary explanation behind the findings - people who struggle to lose weight are perhaps "better" adapted to pre-modern lifestyles, hence their superior exercise response 🤔

[DenisPBlondin @DenisPBlondin]

BIG congratulations to @ChantalPileggi and @meharper_ottawa on this exciting new study, which highlights the variability in the metabolic response to exercise! Women resistant to losing weight on a VLCD were more responsive to a 6wk exercise intervention!

@HannahRBridges1 @JNB_lab @injae_chung @MRC_MBU @mcgillu @Yin_zhan Yeah, but those cool old-school papers are not always easily absorbed into my head :-) It just seems to me that millimolar accumulation of a charged compound would collapse the membrane potential - which doesn't seem to be the case (as in table 1 here: https://t.co/TdYW1fvPfl)

[Jens Frey Halling @jens_halling]

@CTALewis Agree! Although writing more or less the same grant application multiple times after rejections makes it slightly less fun :-)

[Glenn McConell @GlennMcConell1]

Sneak peek of the TOC of our 17 chapter Exercise Metabolism eBook that the publishers just said should be online the first week of July. Hard copy a bit later. Published on behalf of the American Physiological Society by Springer. Thank you so much for all involved!!! 1/2.

Some people say that O2k respirometry is not a high-throughput method. We’re proving them wrong 🥵

[Jens Frey Halling @jens_halling]

Today my office mate Karina Husted defended her PhD thesis on how to use biological age models to motivate healthy lifestyles. Incredible that only 9 simple biomarkers can predict your chronological age with ~70% accuracy! 🤔 @sundaldring @BiomedUCPH

[Jens Frey Halling @jens_halling]

Mitochondrial masterclass by David Nicholls at @cphbat2017 #cphbat2022. PS: I will never stop finding it funny that UCP1 was discovered by Gillian HEATon 😆🔥

[Jens Frey Halling @jens_halling]

Today I learned that Sir @StephenORahilly dreamt of playing left-wing for Manchester United, being a singer/songwriter and writing novels. Fortunately, he also picked up an interest in doing excellent science! #augustkroghclub

[Jens Frey Halling @jens_halling]

“Mitochondrial dysfunction”

[Jens Frey Halling @jens_halling]

On Monday next week, @StephenORahilly will visit @NEXSKU at @UCPH_Research in Copenhagen to talk about his outstanding work in understanding obesity. Check https://t.co/usgJjkOvAL for more info.

[Jens Frey Halling @jens_halling]

Can’t wait for this exercise metabolism “bible” to come out. Happy + honored to be able to contribute.

[Glenn McConell @GlennMcConell1]

1/3. Looking like this will still be out in 3 or so weeks. A teaser of some the authors (in no particular order and apologies to those not listed): Stuart Phillips, Bret Goodpaster, Bente Kiens, Mark Hargreaves, P. Darrell Neufer, Karyn Esser, Phil Ainslie, Gary Lopaschuk,…
