Mitochondrial superoxide regulates nuclear envelope integrity and ageing via redox-mediated lipid metabolism - Nature Metabolism
Mitochondrial superoxide production is shown to preserve nuclear envelope integrity by controlling lipid peroxidation, with impact on nuclear and organismal ageing in C. elegans.

I love this article!
When I was studying at NIH, Bethesda, I noticed that one elder lady secretary wrote beautiful handwritings, and we can enjoy that again!

Handwriting requirements were cut from school curricula around the world. Now it’s looping back, riding on a wave of evidence.

Both chambers of Congress have now passed the FY26 minibus with NIH provisions. The President will sign.

(1) $48.7 billion for NIH
(2) Full IDC recovery
(3) No more multi-year funding
(4) No NIH reorganization, maintaining the current IC structure.

🧪IMPORTANT! This graphic explains how science all over the US is funded. Congress approved a 2% increase in the #NIH budget for FY 26.

Buried in the bill-
Shift of ~40% of grants to MYF. This will still result in a 35% DECREASE in the NUMBER of grants funded per yr.

Russel Vought is behind this.
Graphic helps visualize how MYF funds FEWER grants despite the increase in budget approval by Congress. https://www.researchamerica.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/ACT-for-NIH-Multi-Year-Funding-One-Pager_October-2025.pdf

Because we have a ton of adequately skilled American faculty and #researchers training in #nephrology (lot of work, relatively poor pay) and #Geriatrics (relatively poor pay, #ageism rampant in US) and basic #medical science (the paylines from #NIH were cut by ~50%)

Striking nativist editorializing by the federal judge who just upheld the $100,000 tax on high-skill immigrants.

She opines that it’s “troubling” that universities hire talent from abroad at all, instead of only native grads.

Then admits (!) that opinion is irrelevant (So why write it? Venting?)
“For instance, nine of AAU’s members submitted declarations on behalf of their universities disclosing that they employed, in total, approximately 4,500 H-1B employees, including as faculty and in research positions, see ECF Nos. 18-8 to 18-16—raising puzzling questions about why these same academic institutions are not producing sufficient numbers of adequately skilled American faculty and researchers—or whether other factors are at play—but those questions range far beyond the purview of the current case to answer.”

Mitochondria are among nature's most remarkable gifts to us. These tiny powerhouses are essential for providing
energy and stand at the forefront of anti-aging science, serving as the driving
force behind strategies to promote healthy longevity.
