Brain mitochondria are gorgeous! 🥹

Beautiful MitoBrainMap v1.0 collaboration with neuroanatomist, neuropsychologist, and white matter expert @MichelTdS

[Martin Picard @MitoPsychoBio]

The brain is full of mitochondria!
But how many, and where?

Different types of mitochondria specialize for energy transformation and other functions

In MitoBrainMap v1.0 we provide the first maps of mitochondrial content and OxPhos capacity across the human brain

👩‍🔬🩸 Exciting news! Congratulations to infectious disease expert Assistant Professor Nicola Fletcher, one of only two Ireland-based recipients of the coveted ERC Synergy Grant this year. Her groundbreaking project, NanoX, will receive over €6 million in funding to better understand the pathophysiology of hepatitis E infectWell done, Nicola

🗣️ Professor Kate Robson Brown, UCD Vice President for Research, Innovation and Impact: "Her achievement exemplifies the excellence of our researchers who are building strong international collaborations to drive innovation and address global challenges.”

Soft X-ray microscopy is a new imaging technique that allows the visualisation of cells in great detail, but it has not yet been applied to imaging whole tissues.

NanoX seeks to merge the skillsets of international experts in infectious disease, physics and structural biology to develop new techniques that can image tissue micro-biopsies.

🗣️ Assistant Professor Nicola Fletcher, Ad Astra fellow at UCD School of Veterinary Medicine and Fellow of the UCD Conway Institute: "I am confident that this project will deliver new ways to diagnose and treat a wide range of diseases in humans and animals."

“I’m passionate about One Health, the idea that animal, human and environmental health are all linked, and we must consider all of them when trying to improve the health of anyone. This project fits perfectly within One Health and will benefit all species.”

"The UCD Conway Institute is home to the world’s first commercially available laboratory scale soft x-ray microscope, built and designed by Sirius XT. Together with the University of Heidelberg and the Diamond Light Source in Oxford, we have the state-of-the-art facilities we need to develop new ways to image tissue biopsies in exquisite detail. This will allow us to characterise diseases at the cellular level.”
