Super important work from @hantonicka.bsky.social and collaborators describing a new #mitochondrialdisease gene association 🧬✊🏽🌟

Coverage of this important work led by @daniellahock.bsky.social and @dstroudlab.bsky.social who support our @lifearc.bsky.social research to replicate this @medicalsciencesncl.bsky.social @neygenomics.bsky.social @mitocamb.bsky.social @londonmito.bsky.social @lilyfoundation.bsky.social

And some more @mitochondrially.bsky.social @zornitza.bsky.social @taylorlabncl.bsky.social @mike-ryan.bsky.social @drlukeyform.bsky.social @nikeishacaruana.bsky.social @nicolelake.bsky.social plus an AAP article!

We're super proud to see our study showing utility of proteomics in ultra-rapid variant prioritisation for suspected mito and other rare diseases out in Genome Medicine (rdcu.be/endwE). Too many amazing collabs to thank, so here are the big ones @daniellahock.bsky.social @thorburnmito.bsky.social!

More from the fantastic team @lilyfoundation.bsky.social about the new, collaborative translational @lifearc.bsky.social Centre for Rare Mitochondrial Diseases 🌟

Enjoying a few days talking mitochondria in the beautiful city of Genoa ☀️🇮🇹

Great to be working alongside @mitocamb.bsky.social @ucl-qs-cnmd.bsky.social @lilyfoundation.bsky.social and @mitonewcastle.bsky.social colleagues in this new Centre!

Such a great day and opportunity to work together as a UK mitochondrial research community going forward! @mitonewcastle.bsky.social @drperscitus.bsky.social @sarahjpickett.bsky.social @mtrost.bsky.social @jim-ca.bsky.social @newcastleuni.bsky.social @medicalsciencesncl.bsky.social

Please share! Exciting post-doc position in the Mitochondrial Research Group at UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology, London www.ucl.ac.uk/ion/research.... Great team of supportive colleagues, this project could drive meaningful change to patients, closes 8th April www.jobs.ac.uk/job/DMJ082/r...

Still time to register for: bit.ly/49lQiAf UK Neuromuscular Translational Research Conference 15 and 16 April 2025 - a scientific meeting to promote and share cutting edge clinical and scientific advances in the neuromuscular field.

Great talks at a cool venue! Delighted to contribute to the Clinical Genetics Society conference in #Sheffield presenting our work on the application of #technologies to leverage #mitodisease diagnoses

Congrats to Dr James Lambton for defending his PhD in Newcastle this week 🎓 Neuronal #iPSC models of ATG7-related #autophagy disorders & a newly-identified disease gene. Thanks to Ian Ganley & Marzena Kurzawa-Akanbi for examining, and Monika Winter & @lindalako.bsky.social for co-supervision ✊🏽🌟

NDUFA13, a mitochondrial complex I subunit, was linked to complex I deficiency in only 3 patients. We now report 10 more cases, expanding the phenotypic spectrum, consolidating its role, & comparing it with other complex I deficiency subtypes. Please Check our paper: academic.oup.com/braincomms/a...

Expanding the molecular basis of #mitochondrial genetic disease! Thanks to Bill Newman, Ray O’Keefe and colleagues from @mft-imrare.bsky.social for leading this international collaborative study #raredisease #diagnostics #mitochondrialdisease

Many congratulations Jon! 🌟
