After 4 fantastic years of research, with @caina89 & @heinig_matthias, I’m thrilled to share the first tissue specific map of apparent mtDNA heteroplasmy in humans and their relationships with donor age and mtDNA gene expression across 49 human tissues!👇 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

@caina89 @PioneerCampus @simonrasmu @Metabolcenter @MunichDS @heinig_matthias Finally - please do reach out and let's grab a coffee if you happen to be in beautiful Copenhagen! :)

@caina89 @PioneerCampus @simonrasmu @Metabolcenter @MunichDS @heinig_matthias ..and, of course, to all my fellow student and friends who were with me all the way - true science is a team sport and I would never have been able to climb so high without all of you.

After an immensely enriching and rewarding PhD in @caina89's lab at @PioneerCampus, I am excited to announce that I moved to Copenhagen for my postdoc in @simonrasmu's group @Metabolcenter!

My lab is hiring a postdoc for translational research in inflammatory skin diseases using cutting-edge proteomics Join us @MPI_Biochem. All the infos here 🔍 mpg.de/24950076/postd… Apply until July 23. Please RT.

I’m thrilled to share that the main work of my PhD has been published @Cancer_Cell! With @labs_mann & @ErnstLengyel, we analyzed the progression from ovarian serous borderline tumors to invasive cancer using spatial proteo-transcriptomics and identified new therapeutic targets.

Very happy to share *two* new projects from my group now on @biorxivpreprint on mtDNA variation effects on tissue-specific gene expression conducted using RNAseq data in 49 tissues in the @GTExPortal project! 🧵 1/n

...and here is the big, big thanks to all co-authors in full: @Xenofon_G ,Peter Kreitmaier, Pauline Kautz, @LeifLudwig , Holger Prokisch, @fpcasale. @heinig_matthias and @caina89!!! Thank you for this amazing journey!!! 🤩

Huge shout out to @caina89 & @heinig_matthias for their support and guidance, to all co-authors and acknowledgements for invaluable contributions, to @PioneerCampus for support, and to @tuuliel_lab, @alanjhodgkinson & @BhattaArjun2p for stellar prior work which we build upon!
