Three amazing award winners from the Lamming Lab at the 7th Annual Midwest Aging Consortium Meeting! Congratulations to all the winners and all participants! @iCCup_Spec @baileyknopf @amirah_nie74532

Happy Halloween from the Lamming Lab!

Please enjoy the latest publication from our lab "Restriction of Individual Branched-Chain Amino Acids has Distinct Effects on the Development and Progression of Alzheimer's Disease in 3xTg Mice"

Our most recent work by graduate student @mariahcalubag - demonstrating the sex-specific extension of lifespan by valine restriction was presented last week at #ARDD2025 and is now available on bioRxiv! Thanks to Daniela Bakula, @ScheibyeKnudsen , @biogerontology for the invite!

"Fasting is required for many of the benefits of calorie restriction in the 3xTg mouse model of Alzheimer's disease" from first author @RejiBabygirija and with our collabs including @JohnDenuLab @WiscoSurgMetab is now available online!

I am pleased to report our new manuscript from graduate student @mariahcalubag and collaborators and colleagues, "Tissue-Specific Effects of Dietary Protein on Cellular Senescence Are Mediated by Branched-Chain Amino Acids" is now available!

Pleased to announce the last major project from former graduate student Dr. Babygirija is now available on biorxiv - "Restriction of individual branched-chain amino acids has distinct effects on the development and progression of Alzheimer's disease in 3xTg mice"

Catching up on the week - awesome @AgingMidwest meeting in Rochester, MN! Congrats to @baileyknopf for a terrific talk and winning a travel award, and @iCCup_Spec for winning a poster award!

I am told that @NIH grant review panel dates (these always are scheduled 3-6mo ahead) are getting cancelled left and right (no pun). Does anyone know what this is about? @DrJBhattacharya @RobertKennedyJr

With the end of the year upon us, it's time for the 2024 @LammingLab year in review! Some of our accomplishments and successes are described in the thread below.

The Vikings hit the "We're All In This Together" from High School Musical 😂👏 (via @Vikings)

Glad this paper is finally out! Here first author @iCCup_Spec shows the power of protein and isoleucine restriction as late-life interventions, showing many positive benefits to health as well as positive and perhaps even rejuvenating benefits at the molecular level.

Did anyone else notice where the ball landed after the extra point in the Chiefs game?

In the US, milk is pasteurized via High Temperature Short Time pasteurization. Milk is rapidly heated to 161°F for 15 seconds, then rapidly cooled. This kills pathogens: E. coli, Salmonella, and Listeria, inactivates influenza viruses, herpesviruses, parvoviruses, & others. 1/

I’m sorry I couldn’t properly lead to this beautiful tribute the @CollegeGameDay put together. Really wanted to thank all of you for the avalanche of love and support you’ve shown Ben. It gives me and my family such comfort knowing how he impacted so many peoples lives around the country. He was a beautiful and loving soul.

Breaking: The Indiana Fever have hired Stephanie White as their new head coach, league sources told @alexaphilippou. White spent two seasons with the Fever as head coach in 2015 and 2016.

This is great! @NIAIDNews have launched a collection of public domain illustrations (currently 550 individual icons) bioart.niaid.nih.gov

A slightly tardy but huge congratulations to lab graduate student @baileyknopf who won the UW Institute on Aging New Investigator Award for Biological/Biomedical Research!
