I study mitochondrial phospholipid metabolism at @MRC_MBU. Ex @AstraZeneca scientist. Views are my own.
Delighted to share our latest, expertly led by @KatlynGabriel_ and @ChoahK: FAF2 is a bifunctional regulator of peroxisomal homeostasis and saturated lipid responses Impactful work with therapeutic potential by our @GrekaLab team at @broadinstitute! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Thrilled to share our new Nature Chemical Biology study online today! We’ve uncovered a “lipid clock” ⏰within yeast cells, revealing temporal oscillations in phospholipid abundance during the metabolic/cell division cycle. #Lipids #BiologicalRhythm #Cell nature.com/articles/s4158…
I'm honoured to be selected as one of the #Springboard25 grant recipients. Huge thanks to the Academy of Medical Sciences for their support!
📢 We're making our largest ever investment in early-career researchers Through #Springboard25, we’re investing £7.6m in 62 researchers to drive innovations that improve health and wellbeing 🌍🔬 Congrats to all 2025 awardees! 🎉 👉 bit.ly/springboard25 @SciTechgovuk
Very happy to see this out! A real group effort from numerous people in the Hyslop (@TheCIMR) and @KnowlesLabCamb. Also big thanks to @Michael_E_Ward_ lab @VendruscoloLab, DeriveryLab @MarciniakLab for their invaluable contributions! 🎉🎉🎉 nature.com/articles/s4146…
