Neurons can grow vast lengths compared with other cells, mechanical forces can speed up their growth rate. Abeer Hassan is fascinated by this intersection of physics and biology.
Welcome to @GaryRLewin1's lab! She's also working at @MFainzilber's lab.

A #CRISPR therapy for muscular dystrophy developed at #mdcBerlin and @ChariteBerlin is showing promise in mice.
The study was published in @NatureComms.

Very happy and proud to finally see our paper on rescuing dysferlin deficiency with muscle stem cells & #CRISPR published in @NatureComms. Big thanks to all co-authors for their great work! https://t.co/5jUasv2KOd @MDC_Berlin@ChariteBerlin
End-of-the-year preprint 🧵! Ever wondered how a cancer driven by a single mutant oncogene becomes molecularly & cellularly heterogeneous? Why metastases share drivers w/primary tumors but are more aggressive?
Congratulations to @WenhanLuo4 on receiving a two-year #HumboldtFellowship! 🎉 He will continue his research in @GaryRLewin1's lab at the #mdcBerlin. Together, they aim to unravel how naked mole rats navigate their environment.

#mdcBerlin's Katja Simon investigates autophagy, a self-renewal process that recycles unused components in cells. Declines in autophagy are linked to common signs of aging and diseases. In "Dangerous Thoughts," she shares insights with @rbb24's @JTHADEUSZ: https://t.co/rHxJJeZaxL
Last-minute Christmas shopping? Not for you! We recommend “Remarkable. What animals can teach us about ourselves, the value of diversity, and saving the world,” by #mdcBerlin science writer Russ Hodge and artist Kat Menschik!
