Honored to receive the #BerndTersteegenAward2021 for my recent work where we describe the pivotal role of Activin A in CKD-induced cachexia jci.org/articles/view/135821. Many thanks to @Tobias_B_Huber @PuellesVictor KetanPatel, all my colleagues, and our wonderful collaborators.

I wonder when healthy wellness habits will become obsession for healthy ageing to the point that we will be too busy with exercise and supplements (and possibly scared) to actually live our lives. this is not trivial and we shouldn't impose this to the new generations.

Check out our latest preprint where we use single-nuclei RNA-seq to study gene expression at the neuromuscular junction: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… The paper also characterizes three novel NMJ proteins including the Golgi-associated and MuSK-binding protein PDZRN4.

hyaluronic acid is sold as a supplement even in water nowadays. I can't imagine what will happen to the supplement market after this

In this study, driven by @tcppham🔥we integrated diet-induced obesity Drosophila and mouse models, metabolomics studies, and a multitude of metabolic screening approaches and identify TNIK as a conserved regulator of glucose and lipid metabolism in obesity science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…
