From 2010 to 2016 (latest data I have ), NIH research contributed to EVERY drug approved by the FDA

Attention mitochondriacs! Mitochondrial supercomplexes by cryo-electron tomography. How can you not be blown away by how beautiful this is? Fascinating that ATP synthase is largely organized as dimers since this is one of the putative configurations of mPT pore. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Yet another report on the economic value of NIH investments The indiscriminate and large cuts are illogical and harmful I am angry www.forbes.com/sites/michae...

Fascinating new work from @abigailmackey1.bsky.social onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

New article alert from our group! If you have ever wondered what circulating factors associate with extremes of physical function in advanced age in humans, this provides some insights and raises plenty of questions: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40059508/

... gait speed. Still better than anything molecular biomarkers can provide. Our commentary (with @regula-furrer.bsky.social @biozentrum.unibas.ch @unibas.ch) out now in NPJ Aging: doi.org/10.1038/s415... 3/3

Our new review on longitudinal body comp in lung cancer is now in print! journals.physiology.org/doi/full/10....

Scientists are now organizing events, called Stand Up for Science, on 7 March in Washington, D.C., and state capitals. So far, they have attracted more than 100 volunteers from some 30 states who are hoping to rally support for research as a public good. scim.ag/4328LAD

A two-and-a-half-year-old girl shows no signs of a rare genetic disorder, after becoming the first person to be treated for the motor-neuron condition while in the womb. https://go.nature.com/41a7Zzj

@DrJimmyBagley and I wrote this while he was fighting (and beating!) cancer. Grateful for him as my colleague and friend. “A primer on global molecular responses to exercise in skeletal muscle: Omics in focus”. Cutting edge! @JSHS_MedHealth #myoblue www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

When studying mitochondria, it is essential to consider the impact of physical activity. Some findings attributed to 'aging' might actually be the result of decades of physical inactivity. ⬇️ www.cell.com/cell-reports...

How cool is this?!

Ever wondered how #mitochondria fragmentation comes about during #ferroptosis ? Read our new paper on Drp1-mediated promotion of ferroptotic #celldeath. Great @cecad.bsky.social collaboration with Ana Garcia Saez! rdcu.be/d7L66

Fascinating new paper relating to motoneuron changes in muscles regulating swallowing with aging. This likely has implications for limb muscle too. physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

Thank you for the awesome probe, and big shout-out to @lycasworks.bsky.social for the STED wizardry ✨

Want to come work with us to understand the role of mitochondrial permeability transition in skeletal muscle? Postdoc position available at UF on the BREATHE T32 (US citizens and permanent residents eligible). breathe.phhp.ufl.edu/training/bre...

Nice summary of our paper by #AdvancedScienceNews🤩 www.advancedsciencenews.com/exercising-e... @ismcopenhagen.bsky.social #BispebjergHospital

A renewed reminder to anyone applying for a PhD or postdoc position in a lab--indicate your interest in the email/cover letter by talking a bit about that lab's work and why it would be a good fit. I answer any query that includes this information but do not answer those that do not.
