MICU proteins facilitate calcium-dependent mitochondrial metabolon formation to regulate cellular energetics independently of MCU dlvr.it/TSWnG4
Thrilled to share this with the world! Immensely grateful to our incredible collaborators @UniGraz, our phenomenal lab and support staff @acdc_temple @katztemplemed, and to a mentor who never needed a reason to believe in me—@TheElrodLab!
MICU proteins facilitate calcium-dependent mitochondrial metabolon formation to regulate cellular energetics independently of MCU dlvr.it/TSWnG4
Thank you to our distinguished lecturer, Dr. John Elrod of Temple University School of Medicine, for discussing "A new paradigm in metabolic regulation: calcium-dependent metabolon assembly." @UCincyMedicine
Congratulations to our faculty @kishraj2020 @TheElrodLab !
#KatzTempleMed is thrilled to present our new endowed chairs: Dr. Edmundowicz, Dr. Elrod, and @kishraj2020. This prestigious honor recognizes their accomplishments and supports their future contributions to advancing the school’s mission. Read more: medicine.temple.edu/news/2025/12/k…
Standing room only for the amazing talks at the mitochondrial biology session! #aha25
FIRST PLACE!!! Way to go Tyler! We are so proud!
🎉Congratulations to Tyler for being chosen to represent ACDC & DCVS at the Second Annual LKSOM Postdoc Research Symposium! Tyler earned 1st Place for his talk: “Loss of the mitochondrial calcium-sensor, MICU3, contributes to Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis.”
🚨 We’re hiring! 🚨 The Elrod Lab at Temple University’s Lewis Katz School of Medicine is seeking motivated Postdoctoral Fellows to join our team!
We’re sending our best wishes to longtime Elrod Lab member Joanne as she takes the next big step in her career—joining @UMPhysiology as an Assistant Professor! 🎉 We’ll miss you, but can’t wait to see all you accomplish.
🚨New Publication Alert!🚨 A collaborative study between @TheElrodLab & @LeferLab out now in #JACCBTS ! The team reports the metabolic and gene expression changes driving heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). This study lays the groundwork for future therapies!
Faculty and trainees of @acdc_temple attending #BCVS25. We have good scientists and artists! 🎤😁@BCVSearlyCareer @TheElrodLab @kishraj2020 @GarikipatiSrik2 @amit_k_rai17
🎙️Exciting news! @TheElrodLab trainee @HenryCohen was featured on Discover CircRes, as a finalist for the 2025 BCVS Outstanding Early Career Investigator Award! #BCVS2025 @AHAScience
1/4 New @CircRes podcast #DiscoverCircRes bit.ly/4kHmIcJ! @StHilaireLab chats with chats with the finalists of the 2025 BCVS Outstanding Early Career Investigator Award, @ShijieLiu_CCHMC, @Pan_Ma_, @HenryCohen, and Claire Castro bit.ly/46abDxb
Congratulations to Nadina Latchman, a PhD candidate in the @TheElrodLab , for successfully defending her thesis, "Ultrastructure analysis of mitochondria, lipid droplet and sarcoplasmic reticulum apposition in human heart failure".
New article from @TheElrodLab in @NatMetabolism reveals that TMEM65 is crucial for NCLX-dependent mitochondrial calcium efflux. Loss of TMEM65 leads to calcium overload, cell death, and organ dysfunction, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target. nature.com/articles/s4225…
A new discovery made by #KatzTempleMed scientists could help the design of new therapeutic agents to combat calcium overload of mitochondria in conditions such as heart failure and Alzheimer’s disease. Read more about the study at medicine.temple.edu/discovery-mito… @TheElrodLab
Happy April! ☔️ Mark your calendars for these upcoming events! 🗓️
