It’s #Mitoweek, a week to raise awareness for #mitochondrialdisease. Perfect time to launch our new site quintanalab.org :) and show we’re working nonstop to find treatments💚 So busy finding cures, we had to ask AI to generate a pic for the post, with amazing results 😅

Beyond happy to announce that a project led by Albert will be funded with a CaixaResearch Health Call 2025 grant! 🍾🍾🍾

Albert was on TV yesterday, at the final ceremony of La Marató 2019, where researchers presented the results of all the funded projects. With some makeup on, Albert talked about Leigh syndrome and the advancements achieved thanks to La Marató funding 💚

La Marató del 2019 va recaptar diners per investigar sobre malalties minoritàries. Entre els projectes escollits, hi havia els dels Drs JM López Blanco i el @quintanalab.bsky.social, que buscaven tractaments per la malaltia de Lesch-Nyhan i la síndrome de Leigh. Ahir es presentaven els resultats 📺🔬

Our beloved Laura Sánchez, former PhD student in our lab, visited us yesterday. It was so great to have her back! A perfect excuse to enjoy a good lunch with the team!

Last Friday, we stepped away from the lab for our traditional calçotada—and it couldn’t have been better! It was a great chance to unwind, enjoy some amazing food, and spend quality time together beyond the pipettes and tubes. Looking forward to the next one!

Today is the #RareDiseaseDay At the Institute, different research groups are dedicated to understanding and treating rare diseases.

A new protocol for microglial analysis has been developed by @quintanalab.bsky.social. Microglial cells are key brain immune cells, adapting their dense, dendrite-like morphology based on inflammatory status. Read our #articledeldia here: bio-protocol.org/en/bpdetail?... 🧵(1/6)

Great visit yesterday from @wakeforest.bsky.social students to our campus, hosted by Dr. @rosernadal.bsky.social They explored our molecular biology, microscopy, and histology facilities and had the chance to visit the Anderolab and the @quintanalab.bsky.social. It was a pleasure to meet them!
