15 years in the making, we confirmed that mitochondria - the powerhouse of the cell - have an unusual localization in patients who experience psychosis (including schizophrenia and bipolar disorders). You’ll never guess what kind of patient cells we used to make this discovery… 🧵

Hi all, just to say thanks for all the enthusiasm about the #epigenetics, Chromatin and Gene Regulation starter pack. The interface is a bit unreliable so a few people I added got missed off 😬. If you notice this applies to you, just message me and I'll try again. go.bsky.app/TKp9YAn

Just swam over to Bluesky and decided to dip my fin in the water. I am a Postdoc in the Weinstein lab and currently on the faculty job market. I developed an injury system to study cutaneous wound healing in adult zebrafish. Check out my movie showing neutrophil recruitment after injury.
