Fantastic. Congrats 🤩!

FSP1-mediated lipid droplet quality control prevents neutral lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis - Nature Cell Biology Lange et al. identify a lipid droplet quality control pathway in which FSP1 safeguards stored neutral lipids from lipid peroxidation, thereby preventing the induction of ferroptosis.

Excited to share our study out in @natcellbio.nature.com! Led by @mikelangelipid.bsky.social, we identify the first #LipidDroplet lipid quality control pathway: LD-localized FSP1 protects stored lipids from oxidative damage and prevents LD-initiated #ferroptosis.

I was honored to give the L. Carroll King Memorial Lectures at Northwestern University, sponsored by the Chemistry Department.

Professor King was a pioneering researcher and #teacher who joined Northwestern’s faculty in 1942. He was active in advancing ideas about chemical #education

😂

I’m excited to lead this new journal that will focus on how cells interact with their environment. We are assembling a top tier editorial board, key partnerships, and looking to be the primary forum for the rapidly growing field of spatial biology.

Check out our new paper 🎉. Thanks to everyone who was involved 🙏🏻.

ASBMB names 2026 award winners Check out their lectures at the annual meeting in March in the Washington, D.C., metro area.

Humbled and honored to receive the 2026 Avanti Award in Lipids from ASBMB! Grateful to my exceptional lab, mentors, and collaborators for their support and inspiration. Excited to keep pushing the boundaries of lipid biology and therapeutics!

Hot off the presses! Was an honor to team up with Scott Dixon @stanforduniversity.bsky.social on this Nature Cancer review. We reflect on hurdles that have slowed translation of ferroptosis-directed therapies and share ideas on what it will take to bring these therapies to the clinic. rdcu.be/eBbqV

Multiple oestradiol functions inhibit ferroptosis and acute kidney injury - Nature 17β-oestradiol establishes an anti-ferroptotic state in female kidney tubules.

Happy to start at Bluesky with a post on our recent manuscript at @nature.com:

www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Great collaboration with cool scientists such as @theprattgroup.bsky.social, @fedorovalab.bsky.social and many who do not (yet) have a Bluesky account.

Congrats James! 🎉🥂

📢 Our August issue is online!

🎨 The cover highlights a Feature Review from Stephanie Rosswag de Souza, @gzaffagnini.bsky.social, and @bokelab.bsky.social on how proteostasis functions in cellular dormancy across a number of examples, from yeast to adult quiescent stem cells and vertebrate oocytes.

Riboflavin metabolism shapes FSP1-driven ferroptosis resistance Membrane protection against oxidative insults is achieved by the concerted action of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and endogenous lipophilic antioxidants such as ubiquinone and vitamin E. Deficienci...

🚨Preprint alert 🚨

We identify riboflavin (vitamin B₂) as a key modulator of ferroptosis sensitivity via stabilizing FSP1 & recycling lipid-soluble antioxidants.
