Hi BlueSky! 👋

I’m Joan, a PhD student at @jourdainlab.bsky.social, diving into the world of immunometabolism. My research focuses on mitochondria and how they impact macrophage function.

Between experiments you can find me exploring the mountains🏔️

Stay tuned for some exciting science! 🤓

Stoked to share TWO preprints on mitochondrial pearling! 🎉
We uncover how spontaneous #mitochondria pearling drives #mtDNA nucleoid distribution (doi.org/10.1101/2024...), and
@gavsturm.bsky.social
et al. dissect the biophysics behind it (doi.org/10.1101/2024...). Details below! 🔬🧵🧪
