Yes! Exciting time for the lab with this study finally out. As @mitocollier says, there's something for all in this paper, including links to Parkinson's related proteins. Grateful to #ASAP and #CIHR and for the hard work of our collaborators and reviewers. 🇨🇦🍻

To US friends: 16 year old asked if he will be conscripted. I get the mind numbing reality you find yourselves in. But you have power! Democracy lies in grass root politics - don’t wait for a leader. You taught the world how to rise up for change. You got this! Love, Canada

Happy Wednesday. Felt like a good time to open @Bluesky channel and hopefully see more science with less doomscrolling! Managed the same handle "mitodynamics". I'll try to find you all, but I'm rather a luddite and will need your help!

Congratulations Julien @LabPrudent! Looks like a masterpiece, I look forward to reading and sharing it. I know how much work it is to put these together so thank you to @Tabara_LC and @MayukoSegawa and all involved.
PrudentLab@LabPrudent

Thrilled to share the last review of the lab led by @Tabara_LC and @MayukoSegawa on the mechanisms regulating mitochondrial morphology!!! @MRC_MBU Just out in @NatRevMCB. Thanks @lisa_heinke for the smooth editorial process!

@DrMichaelWay @David_S_Bristol @J_Cell_Sci Heartbreaking news. I remember David so fondly from our postdoc days at EMBL and through the years since. His incredible kindness and enthusiasm for cell biology was such a gift to us all. My sincere condolences to his family, friends and colleagues around the world.

Interesting: @TheNeuro_MNI researchers & collaborators report iPSC-derived dopaminergic neurons form "Lewy body-like inclusions" after exposure to α-synuclein PFFs, but only in combo with IFN-γ or IL-1β treatment or co-culture with activated microglia nature.com/articles/s4159…

Congratulations @BrestoffLab! Encourage all to read this paper. I’m so intrigued at the mechanisms behind this - it’s a wide open field of cell biology and papers like this provide a critical framework to study it. Thank Jon and team for this transformative work.

Very excited to share our latest paper out today @NatMetabolism showing that #mitochondria transfer and transplantation may reduce the morbidity and mortality of #LeighSyndrome, a fatal mitochondrial disease with no effective therapies. dlvr.it/TCjPl6
