Our lab is hiring a postdoc scholar. Please share!
The link has a description of what work we are currently doing and what an ideal fit for the lab will look like.
Broadly, we are working on how peroxisomal function and dietary lipids influence aging.

Grateful for this generous support from the NIH that will support my lab’s mission to understand nutrition at the cellular level!
Congrats to UCLA scientist Tara TeSlaa, recipient of an NIH Director’s New Innovator Award! 🎉
With up to $2.375M over 5 years, her lab will develop a new way to map how specific cell types use nutrients inside the body.

Got to present our work this past week at @CSHL Mechanisms of Aging meeting and engage in several insightful discussions. Walked away with mentors, ideas, collaborations, and a renewed passion. We can’t wait to get back in the lab and advance metabolic research!!
If you’re at @CSHL Mechanisms of Aging meeting this week, let’s catch up or let’s connect and discuss aging!!!

The most successful early-career researchers often rely on a network of mentors who each have different roles — from advising on research and grants to making professional introductions and providing emotional support

Great visiting our sister lab, the Silva-García lab, at Brown! Getting a sense of scientific community back, much needed!

🗞️Our May issue is live!✨Read about immune mechanisms of calorie restriction identified from clinical trial data, tools to detect senescence burden via urine samples, asynchronous aging across female reproductive organs & much more nature.com/nataging/volumes/…
Our paper just went live on @NatureAging. Peroxisomes are understudied & regarded as organelles with functions ancillary to those of the mitochondria. We shift this paradigm by demonstrating how peroxisomes actively guide organelles cascades & maintain them to drive healthy aging
Online now! ✨Using C. elegans, @arpit_science et al link age-associated decline in peroxisomal function to metabolic inflexibility nature.com/articles/s43587-0…
Thanks to Will, and all the co authors! Specially to @AditiPrabhakar6 and @mitomiriam for pulling through as co-second authors!!!

Mitochondria dysfunction underlies age-related decline of skeletal muscle function, with exercise mitigating this effect. Studies in both mice and humans. @PNASnews

another day as a #newpi got to furnish our lab with some unclaimed glassware from an old one! We’re so close to doing actual lab work!!!!! So excited!!
Birthday is here. This year was so transformative. Love being able to celebrate it with people I love and people who love me
Paper submitted ✅
Finally ready to make media/plates ✅
Operational and Biological materials in lab - NEXT!!!
Let’s go 26!!

Simple message - Never stop exercising - Stop drinking alcohol as early as possible

Ok! Back for the last few days of 2025, trying to push the productivity, but also enjoy the warmth of my office at @TuftsUniversity
