Last week we said goodbye to one of the founding members of our lab. Birgit joined the lab as a postdoc @molgen.mpg.de & rejoined when the lab moved to the @mpiage.bsky.social. She did incredible science, served as our lab manager & trained generations of junior scientists. You will be missed!

Today we said farewell to our PhD student turned postdoc Eugene Ballhysa. The energy in his conversations matched his enthusiasm for science🔬🐟We’ll miss you—and we wish you all the best for the road ahead!
🥳🎓Congratulations to Maja on an outstanding master’s thesis defense. Your rigor, perseverance, and dedication are exemplary. Excited to see what comes next.🌟 #GradLife #MastersDefense
1/4 Our preprint “Modulation of the RNase P/MRP complex and mitochondrial ribosome enhances cytosolic ribosome coordination and sustains longevity” is now live @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social 📄 #agingbiology #ribosome 👉https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.64898/2026.02.23.707525v1
Our tiny market of longevity dreams—lab merch, publications, Flammkillifish and ‘rejuvenation’ tonics—won🥈in the annual window decoration contest!🥇to the @inahuppertz.bsky.social and Scheiblich labs chasing the Grinch for their data. Backups, people! 💾 #LabLife #AgingResearch #FestiveScience
From worms to humans, our lab gathered for the annual festive brunch and Secret Santa—because community is the best longevity intervention🎁🎄🫶 #LabLife #Longevity #ScienceCommunity
🚨New @biorxivpreprint: We model the splicing factor disease Verheij syndrome using C. elegans. Disruption of methionine and phospholipid metabolism drives growth defects; vitamin #B12 restores metabolic balance and rescues development! #metabolism #Celegans #RNAsplicing doi.org/10.1101/2025...
Vitamin B12 alleviates Verheij syndrome-like defects via phospholipid remodeling in a C. elegans PUF60 spliceosomopathy model
Verheij syndrome (VRJS) is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in the poly(U)-binding splicing factor 60 (PUF60), a core component of the spliceosomal complex. VRJS triggers multiple congenita...

Eugene, Victoria & Tabrez are just back from Copenhagen🇩🇰 #ARDD2025! Kazuto (@kkawamura13.bsky.social) took the stage to share his insights on fasting-refeeding and age-restoration. ⌛️🍽️ Turns out, the fountain of youth might just be a histone away!🪱🔬 #Rejuvenation #AgingResearch
Our lab's BBQ last Friday was a blast! Meticulous research revealed the ultimate anti-aging formula: juicy burgers and great company! 🍔👩🔬 #AgingResearch
🏆⚽️ A huge shoutout to the Antebi lab's team 'C(riminally) elegant' for winning the human Foosball match at the CECAD Summer Party @cecad.bsky.social! Your elegance on the field is unmatched!💪 #LabLegends #Foosball
1/7 🚨Out now @nataging.nature.com 🚨 We identified a genetic network of TFEB, TGFβ and NOTCH signaling regulating stem cell resilience, rejuvenation & senescence in C. elegans in response to nutrient cues, with conservation across taxa. www.nature.com/articles/s43...
A TFEB–TGFβ axis systemically regulates diapause, stem cell resilience and protects against a senescence-like state - Nature Aging
Nonninger et al. identify the TFEB–TGFβ signaling axis as a regulator of stem cell resilience that protects against a senescence-like state during the adult diapause in Caenorhabditis elegans, a mecha...

🎊Today, we're excited to celebrate the graduation of our amazing 13 students from the CGA Class of 2021! We’re so proud of all their accomplishments. 🎓Come join us now as they present their PhD projects at the 13th CGA Graduate Symposium. And, of course, we can’t wait for the dinner party tonight!🍾
🥳Congratulations @annadiederich01.bsky.social for successfully defending your master's thesis. Great collaboration with the Demetriades Lab. We are thrilled to also accompany you on your PhD journey. To many more interesting findings! 🥂
Last week we said goodbye to our PhD student-turned-postdoc Tim! We are sad to see you go, but confident that you will do great things wherever your journey takes you next! 👨🔬#Farewell
👩🎓We're thrilled to share some wonderful news! Klara Schilling from the CGA Class of 2020 successfully defended her PhD thesis today! Klara, we hope you're enjoying some well-deserved celebrations right now! 🥂🎊 @mpiage.bsky.social @antebilab.bsky.social
Preprint alert @biorxivpreprint! We are excited to share our latest study led by @kkawamura13.bsky.social @annadiederich01.bsky.social in collaboration with & C. Demetriades Lab & @muellerrom.bsky.social Lab www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Resilience and restoration from fasting-refeeding mediated by a nutrient-regulated linker histone
Intermittent fasting and fasting-refeeding regimens can slow biological aging across taxa[1][1]. Shifts between fed and fasted states activate ancient nutrient-sensing pathways which alter cellular an...
