Great work by Yunjia Lai and Souvarish Sarkar They made the cover of Science Signaling. Biotin mitigates manganese-induced toxicity |science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…




Thrilled to share our paper on the role of biotin in Metal-Induced Parkinson’s Disease is the cover article of Science Signaling (Jan 21, 2025)! 🚀 This research opens new avenues for Parkinson's treatments. Gary W Miller Yunjia Lai Read it here: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Manganese toxicity damages neurons and mitochondria by disrupting #biotin metabolism, but can be reversed with supplements of biotin to prevent #neurodegeneration and #Parkinsons-like symptoms, shows new research in fruit flies. Yunjia Lai ColumbiaPublicHealth scim.ag/40GvkJE





The largest medical #AI randomized controlled trial yet performed, enrolling >100,000 women undergoing mammography screening, was published today The Lancet Digital Health The use of A.I. led to 29% higher detection of cancer, no increase of false positives, and reduced workload compared

Interesting survey commented out in nature shows that researchers believe AI outperforms humans in 20+ research tasks. Sebastian Porsdam Mann University of Copenhagen notes: 'What really stands out is the imminence of this.' Research is just beginning to adapt. nature.com/articles/d4158…


Our lifestyle and environmental exposures are the predominant influencers of healthy aging and premature mortality, compared with polygenic risk, in the first comprehensive assessment nature.com/articles/s4159… Nature Medicine


Exciting paper in Nature Methods that pushes the boundaries of MSI and spatially-resolved omics🥳TEMI reaches single-cell spatial resolution and enables the profiling of hundreds of lipids, metabolites, peptides, and N-glycans in complex tissue. Check out: rdcu.be/eiIWy


Happy to see this commentary appear 20 years on from proposing the #exposome to complement the #genome. The goal was to encourage fresh approaches in studying environmental/ non-genetic causes of disease as a path to #prevention. ISEE Env Epi Cancer Prevention Research academic.oup.com/exposome/artic…

New Science Magazine Exposomics. We're not doing nearly enough to understand and mitigate our toxic environmental exposures. A very insightful perspective science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
