Latest from the group on the gliopeptide ACBP/DBI control of metabolic flexibility & feeding in mice, really cool findings that challenge the view that ACBP/DBI is an anorectic signal, led by @KBouyakdan @RoumaneMan @Robb_JL 🙏 Quick🧵biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Come do a PhD with me and my amazing collaborators @NeuroEndo_Ex at the interface of neurosciences and immunology.
The goal is to find out how brain cells defend themselves against a deadly fungus.

ATP released from palmitate-treated muscle cells doesn't contribute to insulin resistance & inflammation. Instead has anabolic insulin-mimetic actions to enhance glucose uptake and metabolism. Chuffed this is out as my 1st 1st author paper @FrontPhysiol frontiersin.org/article/10.3…

To maintain my focus on the important BLM movement I had been avoiding sharing this but last week @BristolUni decided to close the clinical research & imaging centre (CRIC) without consultation with students and staff who are directly impacted, me included.
