Just had a great chat with a researcher looking at drug screening in nematode models of mitochondrial disease. Being an ex-fly scientist, this sort of science is my favourite - give me genetics & model organisms ANY day of the week!
Made me think of you & your worms @genotripe.bsky.social 🪱
Raising awareness of #mito isn't easy – it’s a complex disease that can be hard to explain 🤔
To help put mito on the map during World Mitochondrial Disease Week, our Research Manager @abioblog.bsky.social is here to explain the disease in a really simple way
Watch, learn and share! 💚
#mitoaware
Discover in our Research Zone why biomarkers are essential for tracking #mito progression and how the @lifearc.bsky.social Centre for Rare Mitochondrial Diseases is supporting research to develop non-invasive, organ-specific tools for better care.

It never gets old receiving a notification that someone cited your paper 🥳😂
My entrance essay when applying to university for my undergraduate degree was about axolotl regeneration - such a fascinating animal that even over a decade later, I have a pet axolotl and closely follow a lot of regenerative research that is thanks to this tiny creature 🦎
I don’t know if there’s something in the air but I am the very definition of an exhausted pigeon this week 🐦
I will be wearing this headband for all of my future meetings 😅👰🏻♀️💍
Yesterday we were proud to join the launch of the LifeArc Centre for Rare Mitochondrial Diseases - a major step forward in mito research
We led a workshop on making complex science clear – because involving patients is key to success
#mitochondrialdisease #mitoresearch #patientvoice #raredisease
We’re proud that the @lifearc.bsky.social Centre for Rare Mitochondrial Diseases has officially launched at a prestigious House of Lords event – a significant milestone in transforming the UK’s rare disease research landscape
Stay tuned to meet the lead minds behind the centre on our Research Zone!
