So happy to be at the CNR in Rome hosting the 10th Annual @icsasenescence.bsky.social Meeting and the 2nd #PhaedonInstitute SenoTherapeutics Summit. It's finally time to sit back and enjoy the science 😎🥂 #ICSA2025Rome

What a wonderful session! Blown away by the number of scientists that came out early this morning, and I really enjoyed our collective conversation. Thanks for the opportunity ☺️

Countdown to an epic new pre-print. Mitochondria are cells within our cells. They need the same core activities - replication, transcription, translation. How do cells enable these diverse activities in both compartments? We uncover an unexpected + broad strategy with ancient origins. Stay tuned!

The pleasure was all mine! Thanks so much for the exciting science, stimulating discussions, and delicious galician food & wine 😍

"Cancer knows no borders, and setbacks in one part of the world can have lasting consequences for patients everywhere" Science is a global effort and we must continue to make it such, especially in the face of political attempts to dismantle & destroy it.

Redacting names on PI applications to see if it could help gender parity. The result? "All five [of 5 open positions] went to women during the study, compared with just one during the earlier period." Implicit bias is very real. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

How a biochemistry department used redacted job applications to achieve gender parity

Anonymizing job applications before shortlisting helped to boost the number of women appointed.
