Excited to be taking on the Wildwoman challenge at Wild Duluth this weekend with a back to back 100km race on Saturday and the half marathon Sunday! Nothing like a little ultra running to cure grad school fatigue 🙃

10/10 weekend on the beautiful and rugged Superior Hiking Trail. Finished Wild Duluth 100k Saturday, snagging 7th female and 3rd in my age group. Then ran the trail half marathon today to earn the Ultimate Wildwoman hatchet and title.

Happy Native American Heritage Month! Celebrate and share with Judith Simcox PhD's inspiring journey: bit.ly/simcox

“I love the flexibility of working in science”, she whispers to herself as she rolls into lab on a weekend morning for the umpteenth time to do cell culture and check a mass spec run.

Excited to share that work from my PhD thesis is now available in Nature Metabolism! Here, we uncover a link between heme production, BCAA metabolism, and thermogenesis—implicating heme synthesis in #aging, #obesity, and #T2D. Link: nature.com/articles/s4225… A 🧵 (1/14)

I'm beyond thrilled to announce that I will be joining the Biochemistry Department at the University of Wisconsin–Madison this fall as an Assistant Professor. My lab will focus on deorphanizing biochemical pathways that regulate nutrient metabolism UW–Madison Biochem UW-Madison IPiB

Join us for Gina Wade's Ph.D. thesis defense on May 2! Gina Wade's research in the Judith Simcox PhD Lab examined the role lipids play in regulating body temperature during cold exposure. Learn more: ipib.wisc.edu/2025/04/18/ipi…

Please join us on May 19 for Andrea Hunger's Ph.D. thesis defense! Hunger's research in the Judith Simcox PhD Lab examined the regulation of a lipid that controls cell death and insulin signaling. Learn more: ipib.wisc.edu/2025/04/23/ipi…

Stoked for the opportunity to share some of my translational research with the Biochemistry community at the University of Utah next week!

30 mile ride to celebrate 30 weeks of pregnancy 💪🏼 pretty stoked with how this cell culture experiment is going so far!

AHH!! My primary thesis work is finally out! Tweetorial to come...

As promised, a 🧵 on our recent article now out in NatureStructMolBiol! Co-led with Abby Bartlett Pagliarini Lab Judith Simcox PhD, we find ACAD10/11 are NOT like other acyl-CoA dehydrogenases and instead catabolize atypical lipids called 4-hydroxy acids 🤯#lipidtime doi.org/10.1038/s41594…
