Great work by Mugagga, @LainyVonBank and @_JessDavidson from the Simcox Lab! SCD1 is known to regulate the production of monounsaturated fatty acids and development of diabetes in response of high carbohydrate diet. We showed loss of SCD1 also controls acylcarnitine levels.
Research from the James Ntambi and @JudithSimcox Labs reveals an enzyme’s important role in maintaining a healthy balance of lipids in our bodies. More on their latest research: biochem.wisc.edu/2025/07/02/res…
🚨Postdoctoral position available now! 🚨We have an immediate fully funded position available in cardiac metabolism. We are looking for a highly motivated person to lead our animal model work in oxidative metabolism in heart! Pay is competitive with benefits offered. 1/2
We’re looking for early or mid career faculty that haven’t yet landed that first R01…please share with anyone you know could benefit from community and strategic support
Come join us at the @UofUHealth @UUHSResearch for a Summer Science Day on Saturday, July 12th! It is going to be a lot of fun!!! 🧪🔬 @RutterLab @UofUBiochem
You're trying to fill the summer days. What do we have that might be interesting for you and your kids? How about electron microscopes? Glowing fish?! Pig lungs??!! Come to Summer Science Day at the U on Saturday, July 12. Free and open to the public! gslc.utah.edu/summer-science…
