On this day in 1977, Fred Sanger published the first paper demonstrating "Sanger sequencing", opening the doors to read DNA and earning him a 1980 Nobel prize. Absolutely revolutionary work🫡 The first Sanger sequencing image. Figure 1, PNAS 74:5463:5467 1977

Really nice conference with exciting talks in the metabolism day at CBMR-UCPH NNF Center for Basic Metabolic Research (CBMR). I was inspired with Professor Zoltan Arany’s lecture talking about the actual fuels substrates and their metabolism in cardiac tissue in humans in health and cardiac failure!@zoltarany.

I'm delighted to attend the Novo Nordisk Precision Nutrition Forum. There have been fascinating discussions and advancements regarding digital apps for monitoring nutrition and glycemic trends.

I'm pleased to present our poster on a clinical case of neonatal monogenic diabetes caused by NEUROG3 mutations, which are associated with chronic diarrhea. We discovered that the patient did not produce pancreatic hormones or intestinal incretins and serotoninbut high bile acids

I am delighted to share that our latest review article, which delves into the unique metabolic characteristics of beta cells, has been now published 👇🏼 doi.org/10.1111/apha.1…

It is truly satisfying to receive financial support for our projects. I am delighted to share that we will continue working to understand the role of EPDR1 on mitochondrial metabolism in beta cells, thanks to the support from the Crafoord Foundation.

the molecular mechanisms of β cells to sense nutrients, their metabolically mediated regulation of insulin secretion and the molecular events precipitating β-cell failure are of pivotal importance to understand the pathophysiology of T2D. doi.org/10.1111/apha.1…

Elegant talk as usual done by Dr. Rui GAO at EASD 2024!!

The Nobel Assembly at the Karolinska Institutet has decided to award the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine jointly to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun “for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.” ⁦The Nobel Prize⁩

Thrilled to share our joint work with Anne L. Madsen from Torben Hansen's lab (NNF Center for Basic Metabolic Research (CBMR)) and Jorge Ferrer lab. We explored the genetics of the β-cell function to unlock insights into T2D. Out today in Nature Metabolism ! Here’s what we found 🧵: rdcu.be/dXhoh

I am delighted to have contributed to this study, It combines GWAS, functional studies of glucose homeostasis, beta cell function in vivo and in vitro. It identifies beta cell dysfunction T2D genes. Congratulations to all contributing authors!! 🥂🥂🥂 linkedin.com/posts/luis-rod…

Con profunda tristeza, lamentamos comunicar el fallecimiento esta pasada madrugada del Dr. Joan Guinovart, fundador, ex director, ex investigador y profesor emérito del IRB Barcelona. El Dr. Guinovart ha sido una figura clave en el ámbito de la bioquímica, dejando una huella
