Deleting the enzyme Ptpmt1 from mouse hearts and muscles causes mitochondria to use fats instead of carbohydrates as an energy source, leading to tissue wasting, heart failure, and eventually death. elifesciences.org/digests/86…

We discovered specific brain cells in the claustrum of mice that bidirectionally control stress-induced anxiety behaviors. Silencing of these cells increased resilience against chronic stress and prevented depression. science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

Tyvärr finns det evidens för att allt färre studenter faktiskt läser kurslitteraturen. I den här artikeln finns länkar och väldigt bra tips på hur du får dina studenter att läsa just #kurslitteratur cdrg.blog/2022/02/18/up-to-8… #akademisktlärarskap

Sieht aus wie ein schönes Buch, aber fasst bitte keine wilden Tiere an, vor allem geschützte Arten. Dazu gehört die Großlibelle die man mit dem gezeigten Griff umbringt. Ihre Flügelgelenke können die Bewegung nicht machen und brechen. #wisskomm #Artenschutz #Naturschutz
