It's World Mitochondrial Disease Awareness Week 💚 Since we couldn't #LightUpForMito this year the team's looking lit in green to raise awareness instead! Read more here: www.thelilyfoundation.org.uk/charity/get-... #mitoaware #mitochondrialdisease #worldmitoweek2025 @lilyfoundation.bsky.social

UCL Queen Square MND Centre Sixth ALS/MND International Symposium in Partnership with the UK MND Research Institute held on Friday 05 September 2025

Fantastic news, well done Oscar!

Congratulations to the Cortex Lab and International Brain Lab bsky.app/profile/intl...

Well done James! Fantastic achievement and truly well deserved 😊

💬 "Why do cells that function normally for years stop working?" We speak to Professor Elizabeth Fisher (@uclqsion.bsky.social) about what drives her research. www.ucl.ac.uk/brain-scienc...

Another fulfilling week for The Greensmith Lab (+ colleagues from other DNMD groups) hosting their annual Work Experience at UCL QSIoN. The Summer Students were able to get a taste of scientific life, with hands-on experience, learning key skills eg. pipetting, cell culture, immunostaining and more!

We are pleased to share an exciting new research opportunity for a clinician with a neurology background to join the London Mitochondrial Team, focusing on innovative MRI techniques in mitochondrial disease: www.ucl.ac.uk/work-at-ucl/...

Members of the Houlden Lab at UCL Queen Square IoN recently took part in the Celebrating Research at UCLH Open Day! It was a fantastic opportunity to connect with patients, families, and the wider public - sharing the latest advances in neurogenetics. #UCLHResearch #Neurogenetics

Blood test developed that could speed up diagnosis of rare diseases in babies

Meet the minds behind the LifeArc Centre for Rare Mitochondrial Diseases Hear the excitement from the project leads as they hope to transform the mitochondrial research landscape, and meet mito patient Harry, who reminds us why this work matters www.thelilyfoundation.org.uk/affected-by-...

With Prof @robpitceathly.bsky.social at #PacBioPRISM Athens, discussing the potential for Lily Foundation and LifeArc's diagnostic goals to be realised by integrating PacBio HiFi sequencing into #NHS diagnostics 🤝 @lilyfoundation.bsky.social @lifearc.bsky.social @pacbio.bsky.social

Very full schedule at our #IMGCglasgow workshop last week, delivered by MitoCluster team @robpitceathly.bsky.social, Carlo Viscomi, @mitogene.bsky.social, and @jim-ca.bsky.social. A pleasure to attend, thanks for the invite @mrcmousenetwork.bsky.social & IMGS! 🧬 #mitochondria #MouseModels #ECR

Workshops in full swing with two of them led by us. Robert Pitceathly and Carlo Viscomi of the MitoCluster with Andrew Wood of the Degron Cluster running the Mouse models of mitochondrial DNA disease workshop. Sara Wells and Sonia Bains running the Home cage monitoring one. #IMGCGlasgow #ECRS

We are looking for a Clinical Research Fellow to join our team. Please share!

We're fundraising for the @lilyfoundation.bsky.social as part of their Mito Communi-TEA Party campaign this April! Join us at the National Hospital for Neurology & Neurosurgery next Friday 4th for a sweet treat 🦋 Donate & more info: www.justgiving.com/page/qsmito

Looking forward to #IMGC2025 Glasgow next month! MitoCluster will be delivering an #ECR Workshop on Mouse Models of #Mitochondrial DNA Disease, featuring cluster lead @robpitceathly.bsky.social and investigators Carlo Viscomi, @jim-ca.bsky.social, and @mitogene.bsky.social🐁

It's an honour to take on this responsibility from a great role model such as Linda Greensmith, during an era of groundbreaking research in neuromuscular diseases. I look forward to supporting the success of the department's exceptional PIs, early-/mid-career researchers, staff, and students.

📢 We have not 1 but 3 clinical/patient-facing jobs working with #mitoCAMB on the #LifeArc #raredisease centre for #mito diseases. 1x pre/post-doctoral CRA; 1x post-doctoral CRA (with potential to become a 4 year ACL); 1x research coordinator Join us! Links below.

Great opportunity to discuss cross-cluster collaborations involving mitochondrial dysfunction with a talk by @robpitceathly.bsky.social
