Big thanks to @GeorgeTofaris for the amazing opportunity to learn new skills, explore beautiful Oxford, and work with such a friendly team!
And a huge thank you to my funders @AlzSocResearch
@Co_Biologists for supporting my visit! 🧠
We are excited to welcome @PD_Mito, an @alzheimerssoc funded fellow from @UniofNewcastle.
"I’m thrilled to be here to learn how to establish α-synuclein iPSC models-a key part of my fellowship exploring how age-related mitochondrial decline links to synuclein aggregation".
Back from another lovely @alzheimerssoc #ECRRetreat : inspiring talks, great people, and a much-needed reminder of why I continue doing research 💙

Excited to share a preprint from my PhD work at @taylorlabncl. In this work, we characterised the pathological role of human COA5 in the early stage of mitochondrial complex IV assembly through complexome profiling.
