It’s been truly wonderful to share these years with you all. Thank you so much for the many great times and all the advice along the way. I will definitely miss you. Look, how could I not?

Congratulations Patricia! 🎉

De novo serine biosynthesis is protective in mitochondrial disease Jackson et al. show that serine becomes an essential amino acid in mitochondrial muscle disease, delaying disease progression. Blocking local biosynthesis of serine challenges cellular phospholipid ho...

Muscle needs to make serine from glucose to protect the fibers from mitochondrial disease. Read our story, a tour de force of Anastasiia Marmyleva and Christopher Jackson @SWAN @STEMM Helsinki University www.cell.com/cell-reports...

☺️ It is wonderful to hear from participants of the EU-LIFE Pathfinder Mentorship Programme for #Postdoc Women!

Thanks to @aidaronu.bsky.social for sharing her experience & to Sarah-Maria Fendt for being such an amazing mentor!

Leuven is a lovely city, with an illustrative statue of the scientific method - let’s keep “poking beetles” to uncover the mysteries of biology!

It has been a pleasure to visit VIB-KU Leuven @viblifesciences.bsky.social and meet so many stellar scientists! I’m so grateful to Sarah-Maria Fendt @fendtlab.bsky.social for her invitation and to EU-Life @eu-life.bsky.social for fostering such a wonderful mentoring program.

Spatial analysis of mitochondrial gene expression reveals dynamic translation hubs and remodeling in stress Quantitative imaging of the mitochondrial central dogma identifies translation hubs that are suppressed during stress.

Retromer promotes the lysosomal turnover of mtDNA Lysosomal uptake of mtDNA controls mitochondrial quality.

Excited to share our latest paper in Science Advances! We finally dissected a new pathway for mitochondrial quality control upon mtDNA replication stress! Let’s start a short thread! 🧵

Program of the 9th CATCAT morning on "Dynamics in biology, from molecules to tissues", May 26th 2025

Together with @gallegolab.bsky.social we are organizing the next CATCAT morning on "Dynamics in biology, from molecules to tissues", with an amazing lineup of local and international speakers. If in Barcelona on May 26th, don't miss it, it's free! www.catcat-celltissuebiology.cat/event/9th-ca...

Engineering mtDNA deletions by reconstituting end joining in human mitochondria Recent breakthroughs in the genetic manipulation of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) have enabled precise base substitutions and the efficient elimination of…

Combining bacterial end joining with programmable nucleases, we induced mtDNA deletions in human cells at varying heteroplasmy and examined their metabolic and cellular effects. Simple tool to apply across any cell type and engineer pathogenic mtDNA deletions. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Congratulations Kristina! 🎉

♥️ Huge thanks to my co-organizers Hanane, Yoon Hee, Jaya, Dev, Misha, @dpyunc.bsky.social @vpapadog.bsky.social @ianakim.bsky.social @aidaronu.bsky.social @joebowness.bsky.social for sharing this journey—your support, dedication, and friendship made all the difference! Our network is expanded 😎

🎉 That’s a wrap! The International CRG-BI Postdoc Symposium has come to an end after three incredible days of inspiring talks, engaging discussions, and valuable connections. I have to say I couldn’t be happier! #CRGBIpostdocs

It was great to participate in this #scicomm session and have a chance to present some of our recent #SciArt projects! I enjoyed very much to listen about other projects! Thank you #CRGBIpostdocs !

Wonderful first session at #CRGBIpostdocs Huge thank you to our keynote speaker @mariekeoudelaar.bsky.social (@mpi-nat.bsky.social) and short talk presenters Alex Whale (@babrahaminst.bsky.social) , @ianakim.bsky.social (crg.eu) and Raj Sewduth (@viblifesciences.bsky.social, @eu-life.bsky.social) 👩‍🔬👨‍🔬

Insightful discussions on scientific vision at the BIST Forum 2025. Plus, we received the 🟣BIST Ignite Seed Award with David Gómez, from the Irene Marco-Rius Lab, for our project FertEye 🎉! Huge thanks to the @bist.eu for investing in our idea! @ibecbarcelona.eu @crg.eu @bokelab.bsky.social

Doble Congratulations Dr Colombo🎉🎉😊

Hello! We are the CRG in Barcelona.
We are quite used to blue skies around here.
