Heading back home from a fantastic #EASD2023 meeting with new ideas & inspiration. Thanks to @EASDnews @EASDacademy for the opportunity to present & recognition of our work 🏆 My gratitude goes to my mentors Hans Hauner and @MelinaClaussnit & team for the continuous support 💫

A new proof-of-concept study introduces LipocyteProfiler, a powerful and inexpensive bioimaging tool that uses 3,000+ cellular features to explore metabolic traits and disease biology. https://t.co/I7jItwLTmV

@NatMetabolism We got the cover of @NatMetabolism! A huge shout-out to @PhilKubitz, a wonderful trainee in the lab, for his cover suggestion! Interested in the #V2F work behind it? Read https://t.co/PvIazHg6cg and the fantastic News & Views from @CebolaLab and @Hammaude along with it!

[Hannah Maude @Hammaude]

Very elegant paper from @MelinaClaussnit lab, exploring the mechanism of effect at a lipodystrophy-like T2D locus, implicating adipose actin cytoskeleton remodelling https://t.co/ghSqYw3FQS (News & Views by myself and @CebolaLab! https://t.co/VGufYniZob) 🙏

Online now! A non-coding variant linked to metabolic obesity with normal weight affects actin remodelling in subcutaneous adipocytes https://t.co/yB6Ffu6qlF

[Broad Institute @broadinstitute]

In @NatMetabolism, @MelinaClaussnit, @sophie_strobel, @Sobreira_DR & colleagues reveal a unique genetic for mechanism the MONW (#metabolicallyobesenormalweight) form of #type2diabetes, one that keeps fat cells from storing lipids properly. #T2D

@SchwenkerLS @HelmholtzMunich Viel Freude und Erfolg auf dieser spannenden Reise!

[Amit V. Khera @amitvkhera]

New in @NatureComms led by @saaket_agrawal and @wallacemwang:

Inherited basis of visceral, abdominal subcutaneous and gluteofemoral fat depots

as quantified by MRI in ~40K participants of the UK Biobank

@RebeccaLHull @annagloyn Very well deserved! Congratulations @annagloyn

[J_Honecker @JHon3cker]

Proud to present our publication in @EBioMedicine. https://t.co/p03bi78UEz A team effort together with @StfnnftS, @BMRRgroup, @MelinaClaussnit, Hans Hauner, et al on transcriptomic signatures of adipocyte hypertrophy.

[Amit V. Khera @amitvkhera]

New from @MarcusKlarqvist + @saaket_agrawal!

Beyond overall adiposity, DISTRIBUTION of fat is a key driver of cardiometabolic health

Most prior studies used medical imaging (DEXA, MRI, CT) to quantify

Can we accurately estimate distribution with just a person’s silhouette?

[Phil Kubitz @PhilKubitz]

@bgrdoughty @JohnDoench Apparently a bit heavy on the glutamine.

[Phil Kubitz @PhilKubitz]

@DGE_ECS @KevinH_PhD @NIDDKgov Thanks to the organisers @MC_Podszun @BettyHieronimus I hope we have more of these in the future.

[J_Honecker @JHon3cker]

I am excited to share our preprint together with @BMRRgroup @StfnnftS @CNellaker @ceclindgren @MelinaClaussnit on transcriptome and fatty-acid signatures of adipocyte hypertrophy and their non-invasive MR-based characterization in human adipose tissue.

@MC_Podszun @UniHohenheim @NASH_and_coffee @RotmanLabShark All the best with your new position and for finding a healthy balance between family and professional life. Also good luck organising those cables!

[Heiko Lickert @LickertHeiko]

Tomorrow I will present our latest finding of an insulin inhibitory receptor in beta cells, registration is still open. RTW for colleagues interested in #insulin and #betacells and #diabetes

[W. Florian Fricke @WFlorianFricke]

Our (@WFlorianFricke @DanielPodlesny) new metaanalysis of the neonatal #microbiome, maternal strain inheritance, and persistence into adolescence is out: https://t.co/XvDe3qkb2d. We used our SameStr tool to identify and visualize shared strain networks. (1/4)
