Our friends from the MPI for Metabolism Research nearby are now also part of Bluesky! 🤩 Be sure to follow!

Huge congratulations to @hagesprenger.bsky.social and the rest of the team for this great work Ergothioneine controls mitochondrial function and exercise performance via direct activation of MPST: Cell Metabolism www.cell.com/cell-metabol...

Online now: Ergothioneine controls mitochondrial function and exercise performance via direct activation of MPST

Our paper showing that ergothioneine controls mitochondrial function and exercise performance via direct activation of MPST is now published @cp-cellmetabolism.bsky.social Thanks to everyone involved! www.cell.com/cell-metabol...

Die neue US-Administration schränkt die #Forschungsfreiheit ein – Förderanträge werden nicht geprüft, Mittel eingefroren. Das betrifft auch viele unserer Partner. Umso wichtiger ist es, den transatlantischen Austausch zu stärken. Gespräch im @spiegel.de u.a. dazu (€): www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft...

Time for some mito-business. Or should we say methyl-business?? Let's ask our speaker Thomas MacVicar. This thursday, usual time and place.

Hannah Scheiblich hat mit mir über einen von ihr entdeckten Mechanismus des Immunsystems im Gehirn gesprochen, der Nervenzellen vor dem Tod bewahrt. Er eröffnet Möglichkeiten für neue Behandlungen von neurodegenartiven Erkrankungen.

The Science Day with the MPI for Metabolism Research last Thursday was an amazing success. Great networking opportunity and showcase for our extensive collaborations. That's the spirit for this year! 🔬🧬🤩

Von wegen High-Protein: Wer sich eiweissarm ernährt, lebt länger gesünder. Warum das so ist, hat mir Sebastian Grönke vom @mpiage.bsky.social erklärt.

Hello Bluesky community! We are excited to be here! The Leibniz Institute on Aging – Fritz Lipmann Institute (FLI) is a research institute in Germany, focusing on biomedical research on human aging, a multifactorial process controlled by environmental and genetic factors. More: bit.ly/4appYWq
