Very pleased to share our new article in the @SFRBM journal Free Radical Biology & Medicine describing a refined protocol for measuring Complex I-, II-. and IV-dependent #mitochondria #oxygen consumption. It reveals excess neuronal Complex I capacity:

How does mitochondrial DNA escape and trigger inflammation?
Our new review examines mechanisms of inflammatory mtDNA release and highlights key unanswered questions in the field.

I am pleased to share a new article from the lab published in the @MDPIOpenAccess Special Issue Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Neurodegeneration: A Translational Perspective: mdpi.com/3340194
Enjoy your poster presentation!
Excited to present at my first ever Gordon Conference on Neurobiology of Brain Disorders! If you're curious about what happens to mitochondria when you knock out a lysosomal ion channel, stop by poster #1 today, Wednesday, or Thursday to hear about my work in the @polsterlab

Check out this exciting preprint from the Poulopoulos lab, led by PIN student Colin Robertson. This work is the first of its kind in prime editing of neurons in vivo. Congrats to the Pou lab!

The kits that agilent promotes for its Seahorse xf analyzer system are loaded with ambiguous measurements and misleading interpretations. Friends don't let friends Seahorse (without caution and controls). 🔥📢✊ #mitochondria #CellBiology

If you are looking for a postdoc position, please check out this great opportunity!
We are looking for a postdoctoral fellow to lead a collaborative project between our lab and
@DrNityaJain related to maternal immune activation and the impact on neurodevelopment, development of the immune system, and neurodevelopmental disorders.

👋🏼 Hi I’m Cali, postdoc with @marykaylobo at @UMMedNeuro Thrilled to be a 2023 travel awardee and attending my first in person ACNP. I’m looking at how stress and drugs impact mitochondria in the brain and periphery. My poster is on Tuesday and I’m on the job market this year! 🤩

Absolutely thrilled to share the final manuscript stemming from my postdoctoral work with @staci_bilbo So excited that the new lab @MGH_RI is following up on these findings

We are excited to be back at #SfN23 ! Come check out the amazing work from our UMB trainees: docs.google.com/spreadsheets…
Welcome to #SfN23 🧠!
Whether you're presenting, attending, or just excited for a free tote bag SfN is thrilled you are here.
Very nice to see this paper out and great work!
New Hill lab publication from @kanolden and @M_Cleland out in @jbiolchem investigating a long-standing question in mitodynamics in which they show that human Fis1 directly interacts with Drp1 to promote mitochondrial fission! jbc.org/article/S0021-9258(2…
This is my favorite comment in this thread. Don’t be discouraged @MeganDuffyPhD. Think forward to a time in the future when your paper is published and making an impact and think about how you will feel. This rejection will be a distant memory.

Happy to share my latest fundamental neurochemistry review at @JNeurochem, exploring microglial immunometabolism following traumatic brain injury! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…. Here, we address the links between metabolic and inflammatory changes that follow TBI. (1/3)
It is great to have fantastic Program in Neuroscience Ph.D. student Ryan Mayers representing the lab at #SfN22 this year👇
Having a great time at #SfN22 so far, and excited to present tomorrow morning! Stop by poster F41 if you want to hear how I'm modeling neurodegeneration-relevant inflammation/mitochondria interactions in human microglia with @polsterlab #SfN2022

Our Program in Neuroscience encourages applications from students from all backgrounds! We are providing application feedback for those identifying as underrepresented in biomedical science. See below for info on our culture of inclusivity and for details on this opportunity!
Congratulations, Ryan! Very well-deserved!
3) Just found out today I've been appointed to the NIH-funded T32 Training Program in Integrative Membrane Biology here at UMB! Much thanks to @polsterlab and @UMMedNeuro for their mentorship as I wrote my first research proposal!
Pleased to contribute this new @Biomol_MDPI article on #glutamate #excitotoxicity to the very nice Special Issue on Mitochondria and Central Nervous System Disorders organized by Marta Giacomello @GiacomelloLab
