Sociality shapes mitochondrial adaptations supporting hypoxia tolerance biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 👇 Below a twittorial on Alice Rossi's great paper @Alice_Rossi__ describing the mechanisms of cellular hypoxia resistance in the naked mole-rat!👇

Proud to present Alice's @Alice_Rossi__ exciting study on how unique molecular adaptations of mitochondrial proteins allow naked mole-rat cells to survive 2 days without oxygen! Sociality shapes mitochondrial adaptations supporting hypoxia tolerance biorxiv.org/content/10.110…




Next up on our @helmholtz_image contest list are the submissions of #mdcBerlin researchers @ThanosBalomenos (left, ID 417 & right, ID 364) and @Lin25486951 (right) from the @GaryRLewin1 lab. Your vote(s) count! 👉 364: awards.helmholtz-imaging.de/entry/vote/Ryw… 👉 417: awards.helmholtz-imaging.de/entry/vote/Ryw…

Neuroscientists @GaryRLewin1 and James Poulet from the #mdcBerlin have each secured a €2.5 million @ERC_Research Advanced Grant to study the neural networks of pain perception and body temperature regulation, respectively. Congrats! 🥳 #ERCAdG More: mdc-berlin.de/news/press/erc…

Touch sensation requires the mechanically gated ion channel ELKIN1 | Science science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Super proud to present our latest work led by Sam @fluorescence_SC , we identified ELKIN1 as necessary for normal touch sensation in mice and in human sensory neurons too!


Congratulations to the winners of the best talks at #PDD23! 🏆👏 Anna Alessandra Monaco @annaAmonaco @MPI_MolGen, Tomislav Stolar @StolarTomislav @BAM_research, and Sampurna Chakrabarti @fluorescence_SC @MDC_Berlin, you've done an outstanding job.

Exciting news 🎉 I've been awarded the KT Boost Fund👨🔬 by @ktstiftung @germanscholars! Grateful to @VolkerHaucke lab for the incredible support along this rollercoaster🎢 #ScientificJourney! Next stop: a #massspec twist with @theliulab @LeibnizFMP💪 Stay tuned for updates!🧠🧵1/4





Check out our latest Preprint. Great work from Sam @fluorescence_SC, We show that the mechanically gated ion channel Elkin1 is required for touch in mice! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

8⃣ days til @LNDWBerlin! Get to know @GaryRLewin1's "naked mole-rats with a sense of tact."🎙️ Full program: mdc-berlin.de/long-night-sci… 8⃣ Tage bis #LNDW23! Die AG Lewin stellt "Nackte Mulle mit Taktgefühl" vor. 🎙️ Unser Programm: mdc-berlin.de/de/lange-nacht @BIMSB_MDC @campusbuch

Very happy to have our project selected for Pre-GoBio funding 🥳. Was a lot of fun writing it from scratch with @Alice_Rossi__ . Here’s to seeing it through with @GaryRLewin1 and team!
