Our story on uridine catabolism for energy production is out in Nature Metabolism! Spearheaded by co-first authors Owen Skinner (MGH/Harvard) and Joan Blanco-Fernandez (from the lab), with Vamsi Mootha and many collaborators. PDF

In a new manuscript by Joan Blanco-Fernandez we introduce Dead-Seq, a powerful experimental method for converting negative- into positive-selection screens, compatible with CRISPR screening, ORFeome screening and more. PDF

Our group, together with Dr. Christel Tran at the Lausanne University Hospital (CHUV), was awarded a two-year interdisciplinary grant from the Research Commission at the Faculty of Biology and Medicine, University of Lausanne. With this new fund, we will develop tools to provide molecular diagnoses to patients with suspected mitochondrial disorders.
