UMass MetNet celebrates another great day with outstanding scientist James Olzmann James Olzmann who presented beautiful work on lipid quality control and ferroptosis! Learn more at the Metabolog. umassmed.edu/metnet/blog/ UMassDiabetes UMass Molecular Medicine

We had a wonderful visit and “Fluxing Start Talk” from Lynne Chantranupong who presented brand new insights and technology into neurotransmission from a metabolomic and behavioral perspective! Learn more about Lynne in our Metabolog. umassmed.edu/metnet/blog/20…

The amazing talks continue with a phenomenally fun day/dinner engaging aging with Will Mair @William_Mair doing outstanding work on mitochondria dynamics! Thanks for visiting and sharing your adventures in science and hobbies! umassmed.edu/metnet/blog/20…

Had a wonderful day with guest "Fluxing Star" Evanna Mills (sporting a MetNet T-shirt!) who's seminar on how metabolites function as signaling molecules was outstanding! Learn about Evanna and her amazing ability to hold a plank at the Metabolog - umassmed.edu/metnet/blog/20…

We were blown away by the finalists for Weill Center for Metabolic Health Emerging Scientists in Metabolism award. Congrats to winner John Haley from Dave Guertin, runner up Divya Bezwada from @RJDLab, and other finalists Benjamin Jackson from Lydia Finley Lab and @YuyangLiu9 from Kivanc Birsoy lab

Congratulations to John Haley Dave Guertin on winning first place for the Weill Center for Metabolic Health Emerging Scientists in Metabolism Award!!! UMass Molecular Medicine Morningside Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences UMass Chan Medical School

Another super fun collaborative project between our cold-acclimated N. East coast team and warm-acclimated S. West coast colleagues!

What fuels thermogenesis🔥? Ummmm - let's say, it depends - see our comment on an elegant new study in Nature Metabolism nature.com/articles/s4225… Here a link to the free view-only version: rdcu.be/deSSq

And just like that.....the lab turns 3 years old. Time flies when you get to work with these fantastic people. Thanks to all of our lab members, past and present, and colleagues and collaborators at UMass that make it a pleasure to do what we do every day.

Online now! Happy to share grad student John Haley's new review article discussing recent advances in understanding in vivo metabolic flux in thermogenic adipocytes. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Congrats Roger!

MetNet hosts an epic "AMPK vs. mTORC1 Battle for Metabolic Supremacy" with Reuben Shaw and Brendan Manning WWE style. After 3 grueling rounds, "Hacksaw Shaw" and "The Hit Man Manning" tie for the belt! D.Guertin, K.Shen, D.Kim MC with style...

Happy to share our paper on the very exciting therapeutic potential of adipose tissue derived CD271+ progenitors on limb ischemia published Cell Reports Medicine today. cell.com/cell-reports-m…

BREAKING NEWS The 2024 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.

Victor live now. Congrats Victor & Candy!!! Congrats C. elegans. Congrats PMM.

A pair of Nobels.

Umass MetNet Immunometabolism mini-symposium with keynote Jeff Rathmell kicks off with a full house!

Congrats Kate Korobkina et al for our Nature Metabolism paper online now showing that in brown fat—a thermogenic tissue famous for generating vast amounts of acetyl-CoA in mitochondria—cytosolic acetyl-CoA synthesis also matters…ALOT. Find out why here: rdcu.be/dWUqM
