Please check out our bioRxiv preprint🧬
We present MitoBEAP, the R package for analysing mito. base-editing experiments, enabling assessment of editing efficiency and off-targets from NGS data.
A huge congratulations to @LindseyVanHaute
and the team 🎉

I asked chatGPT to make a video: A 2-minute YouTube video for teenagers explaining what mitochondria are, what they do and why they are special (e.g. own DNA, inherited from mother, bacterial origin).

Congratulations @EloiseMLMrqs
Big congratulations to @EloiseMLMrqs who won a poster prize at this year's @MRC_MBU annual symposium for her work in the lab over the last year 🥳 @MBU_postdocs
Congratulations Dylan!
Quiet a nice moment in my early academic career to be nominated for a research culture award 😃 @MRC_MBU

Thrilled to share the last review of the lab led by @Tabara_LC and @MayukoSegawa on the mechanisms regulating mitochondrial morphology!!! @MRC_MBU
Just out in @NatRevMCB. Thanks @lisa_heinke for the smooth editorial process!

New research shows the heavy toll PhD studies take on mental health, with a 40% rise in psychiatric medication by the fifth year. It's time to address the doctoral students' pressure and prioritize their well-being.

Completed my first 100+ km trail ultramarathon yesterday finishing on the podium in 3rd place. It was one of the toughest challenges I've ever experienced. I'm no olympian but amazed how our #mitochondria can power us beyond what we think our bodies can do strava.app.link/sWsXdAQbNLb

An exciting contribution from our collaborators reveals an ageing signature from unique mitochondrial mutations that bypass selection!
We decided to readvertise our exciting paper 'Cryptic mitochondrial ageing coincides with mid-late life and is pathophysiologically informative in single cells across tissues and species' 1/6 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
