Dr. Michelle Colgrave received the Wiley Award at the AOAC Annual Meeting this morning and is now giving her address: Using Proteomics to Safeguard our Health and Deliver Foods of the Future #AOAC2024AM
Explore a new thematic issue from the Federation of European Microbiological Societies' Pathogens and Disease journal titled, 'Diversity and Inclusion Matters.'
Throughout the issue, 11 articles are highlighted which were submitted to Pathogen and Disease's research topic that offer unique and innovative, evidence-backed solutions to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion in Science, Technology, Mathematics, and Medicine (#STEMM).

Come si fa se una variante ha effetti funzionali o no?
Alan Rubin ci parlerà della piattaforma MaveDB a HUGO 2024!!!
MaDB is an open source platform created for the collection, distribution and analysis of variant effect maps. Designed to be flexible and extensible, the MaveDB repository can host data from different target sequences and experimental methods as the field evolves. Using MaveDB to combine variant effect data with external contextual information, MaveVis is the first application built on this resource.
During the ESC conference in London, data from the INFINITY SWEDEHEART study on Dynamx were presented.
The data presented demonstrate that the primary endpoint was met and that DynamX Bioadaptor demonstrated a significant reduction in adverse events after 6 months:
• primary non-inferiority endpoint - TLF: 2.35% vs 2.77% at 12 months (p<0.001)
• low rate of VT-MI and ID-TLR ischemic events
• Significant reduction in TLF (p=0.003) and TVF (p=0.008) after 6 months

Thrilled to see this article published and to have contributed a bit. Excellent research on the oxygen-sensing pathway and thermogenic brown fat, led by Zoi Michailidou!
Delighted our new article is out at Nature Communications!
· We show that the oxygen sensing pathway is regulating thermogenesis.
· Calorie burning is normally turned off in thermogenic brown fat at warm temperatures. Here we show that adipocyte oxygen sensing directly boosts brown fat calorie burning, even in warm conditions.
· Serum proteomics analysis in 5457 participants from the deeply phenotyped AGES cohort associates the oxygen sensor PHD2 with increased risk of Metabolic Disease.

If you are interested in RT-qPCR based microRNA quantification and how it should be done in clinical samples, our poster is still onsite. Let’s catch up Marc Van Der Hofstadt Serrano, PhD
Managing Director at MESLO | Distribution Network Specialist | Biobanking | Water and Life Science Enthusiast | Passionate about Water Quality, WASH and Biobanking.
In the heart of every biobank lies the promise to safeguard invaluable biological samples. But the recent failure at Karolinska Institutet serves as a stark reminder: even the most advanced systems can falter when vigilance wanes.
As other institutions reassess their security measures, this tale urges us all—whether in science or business—to never let complacency take hold. Our safeguards are only as strong as our commitment to continuous improvement.
Let's keep the lessons learned in the forefront as we move forward.

Our recent paper about the lipid scavenger receptor Bez in Development comes with an interview with my amazing, inspiring colleague Pilar:

We were unsuccessful with a recent DOE SBIR (no big deal, most grants aren't funded on first submission but this one will be) so we are turning this into an The National Institutes of Health proposal.
In brief, #multiomics#statisticalanalysis is are hard so we are developing #graphtheory extending work we have been doing since (yikes) 1999.
Here is a paper for #microbiome#taxonomy graphs.
