🎉 Curious to know how it’s possible to survive without oxygen? Excited to share my postdoctoral work! We unravel how naked mole-rats endure extreme hypoxia through their unique mitochondrial adaptations! 🙏 Huge thanks to the @GaryRLewin1 lab, all collaborators and friends!

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…

Excited to share our new paper on PIEZO2 ion channels and their role in mechanical pain sensitivity! 🔬Check out how PIEZO2 mutations lead to nociceptor hyperexcitability and potential implications for chronic pain treatment. Thanks to all collaborators! doi.org/10.1093/brain/…

Emerging from X/Twitter hibernation to announce the first preprint of the lab! Naked mole-rat ❤️ keeps beating without oxygen thanks to their specialised glycogen. Spearheaded by @AmandaBundgaar2 in collab with @FrezzaLab - thanks to all involved! biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…

I am absolutely thrilled to receive a new ERC advanced grant to study the origins of mechanical pain. I am eternally grateful for this funding instrument which ten years ago allowed us to tackle the molecular origins of extreme physiology in the naked mole-rat!

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…

Short twittorial on our latest Elkin1 paper. First figure: Elkin1 talks like a channel, walks like a channel and is mechanically gated. Expression leads to mechanically gated currents just like any Piezo. Most importantly an unusual leak current appears in cells expressing Elkin1

Read about our latest contribution to science ⬇️: How do we feel touch? science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… (press release) mdc-berlin.de/news/press/new… Thanks to all the contributors and here's to the next discovery!

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!
