Looking forward to sharing some work on endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria contact biology and metabolism at #cellbio2024 @ASCBiology ! I’m also looking for opportunities to learn more about industry internships! Please reach out if you’ll be in sunny San Diego

Fun little side quest every year for a great cause. Thanks to these great folks for carrying me to represent the stache’s in the Lyssiotis lab 😆
This group of Dudes is serious about Mo’s and about raising awareness for men’s mental health and cancer research 👨🏻💪🏼 #Movember @UMRogelCancer, @UMPhysiology @JA_NietoCarrion, @stark2_d

Come to the #422 booth in the #NiSTEM for @SACNAS! We can talk about all the PhD programs that PIBS offers, such as the @UMPhysiology, research opportunities, graduate school application process😊

That time again! And I’ve got some friends with me this time, each aiming to row 100km over the next month to raise money for men’s mental health and cancer research and awareness. Please see the attached thread for more info, and please consider donating to our team! Link ⬇️
us.movember.com/mospace/1509… Mental health advocacy and cancer research are my two biggest passions, and I’m lucky to be able to engage with these passions often. This November, I’m attempting to fundraise for men’s mental health and prostate + testicular cancer research through (🧵)

More awesome science! Check this work out from the Lien lab
Excited to share the first research publication from our lab! Lipid availability influences ferroptosis sensitivity in cancer cells by regulating polyunsaturated fatty acid trafficking sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Really, really cool science shared today!
Amazing talk from David Shackelford as always on spatial mitochondrial and metabolic heterogeneity in lung cancer 🤩 inter-organellar communication FTW

Stellar student and friend studying immunometabolism!
#sciTwitter, we are trying something here. We'd like to introduce @mattperricone28! He is a 3rd year grad student in the Immunology program @umichmedicine, @LyssiotisLab studying T cell metabolism in #PancreaticCancer **Please do us a solid, give him a follow & retweet 🔄💜🙏

'What we call "dysfunction" often is an overly reductionist picture of adaptive mitochondrial recalibration' -- Martin Picard @MitoPsychoBio
There are many mitochondrial functions and many ways to be "dysfunctional" What we call "dysfunction" often is an overly reductionist picture of adaptive mitochondrial recalibration picardlab.org/uploads/7/7/8/…

Can’t be more deserving for this grant!!!! Amazing scientist, great mentor, and a good friend!!! Can’t wait to see what @radykm will do when she starts her lab 🤩
Congrats to @UMPhysiology postdoc @radykm for receiving a NIH MOSAIC K99/R00 grant from @NIGMS to study the role of altered cell metabolism during the precancerous stages and tumor initiation of pancreatic cancer. @LyssiotisLab @YatrikShahLab @UMRogelCancer

Introducing a resource of mtDNA copy number (mtCN) across ~10k human donor-tissues (GTEx), 20 murine tissues, and 173 cancer cell lines. Insights emerge by integrating mtCN w/other large-scale measures, e.g., DepMap cells w/high mtCN resist loss of GPX4. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.24…

Here’s the big one: In collaboration with @Honigmann_Lab, @LabShevchenko, Björn Drobot and Martin Hof we present a general workflow for imaging the localization and transport of individual lipids in cells and mapping their metabolism. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Ferroptosis-ophiles: check out this new study from @SDeangelo95, @YatrikShahLab 🔥 Punch line: RSL3 is not doing what you think it is 🫨😵‍💫 It is a remarkably dirty inhibitor of the entire seleno-proteome.
