Replying to @Conrad_Lab
@Conrad_Lab of @HelmholtzMunich is leading our growing understanding of the role of #ferroptosis in human disease, especially #cancer and #neurodegenerative diseases. Recent studies on selenium carrier protein, PRDX-6, from the lab highlight new therapeutic opportunities.
For everyone interested in our science! Our Institute was recently featured by our center @HelmholtzMunich, giving a high-level summary of our work on #ferroptosis
