Studying human genetics of lipid metabolism to develop novel innovative diagnostic and therapeutic approaches



🌟 Congrats to the recipients of the Mito Foundation's travel grants for @aussiemit 2024! These travel grants will help 7 researchers and health professionals attend AussieMit — Australia's largest conference related to mitochondrial biology and disease. aussiemit.com.au/awards/






It took more than a DECADE... but finally it’s published!!! It started as a CRAZY idea but after tons of hard work we built it: We hijacked the endogenous secretion systems of Toxoplasma gondii, a brain parasite, to deliver active proteins to neurons 👇 nature.com/articles/s4156…

Überspitzt formuliert wird die jetzt beschlossene Reform des WissZeitVG die Wissenschaft in Deutschland zerstören. Gut gemacht! 🤦♂️🤢


And now the manuscript got published at @NatureComms. What a nice start into 2024! Thanks to @annawo13 and her group as well as all other collaborateurs for this journey. #HappyNewYear @UKEHamburg nature.com/articles/s4146…

What determines the composition of complex lipids and how can we use it therapeutically? In the preprint of Worthmann et al., we investigated a patient with a de novo variant in FASN which has a strong impact on PUFA enrichment. @annawo13 1/12 researchsquare.com/article/rs-100…
