Lily #Research Manager @ABioBlog was delighted to attend the #Cambridge Paediatric Mitochondrial Meeting @cam_mito Maria talked about the important role of #patients in research & how The #LilyFoundation are working hard to ensure research is truly patient-focused.

New study from us:
science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…
High mtDNA copy number promotes lung cancer growth in the mouse, whereas mtDNA depletion in tumor cells reduces tumor growth. This tumor-intrinsic role for mtDNA can be exploited for development of future lung cancer therapies.

I'm running a masters class on Microsporidia and dsDNA viruses of arthropods today for Universidad Austral de Chile! 🇨🇱 🦀🦋
I'm excited to see what everyone thinks, and to see if I can convince all in attendance to go out and search for new species!

This welcome for the amazing @kevinhunterday at his beloved @CPFC left us all rather emotional after a spectacular 3 days of walking with Kevin (who did the hard graft of all 62 miles). You can still support Kevin via this link: justgiving.com/campaign/kevi… #marchoftheday #football
Such a thrill to meet all the wonderful people from @4Lilyfoundation on @kevinhunterday #marchoftheday. You smash it mate and just to do part of the walk with you was amazing. You deserved this at the end of the walk @CPFC did you proud.

During evolution fragments of mitochondrial genome have been inserted into the nuclear genome - like viral pieces of DNA!
We now find that mito-nuclear DNA transfer happens in the human brain along the lifespan and every few days in cultured cells.
