Functionally dominant hotspot mutations of mitochondrial ribosomal RNA genes in cancer Nature Genetics - Analysis of 14,106 tumor genomes highlights recurrent mutations in mitochondrial ribosomal RNA encoded within the mitochondrial genome. Mutations occur at hotspot positions and...

Excited to share our latest work in collaboration with the @edreznik.bsky.social lab @mskcancercenter.bsky.social, where we describe functionally dominant mitochondrial DNA mutations in patient tumors. So, what is functional dominance in mitochondrial genetics, I hear you ask?

Promotional graphic for a special issue of Disease Models & Mechanisms titled "In Vitro Models of Human Disease to Inform Mechanism and Drug Discovery." The left side of the image contains text announcing the call for papers, edited by Vivian Li, Austin Smith, and Joseph Wu, with a submission deadline of 3 November 2025. The right side features a vibrant, microscopic image of biological tissue or cell structures in vivid pink, blue, and yellow hues, representing the complexity of in vitro disease models. The design combines scientific detail with visual appeal to attract submissions for the issue.

With two complete starter packs (in my profile), here is a 3rd one for the ever-growing metabolism community. Please contact me if you are working (prerequisite) on metabolism and want to be included here; there is still some space. I will keep updating it.

Everyone at Aberdeen FC is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Aberdeen born football legend Denis Law.

One of Scotland’s greatest ever players, his legacy will live on in the North-east.

Our thoughts are with his family and friends.
