Had a wonderful time presenting our work on trypanosome mitochondrial stress responses at #embo workshop on #proteinqualitycontrol in Crete last week, despite the earthquake! Thank you to @embo.org and @biochemsoc.bsky.social for supporting my attendance ☀️🌴🔬🧬

The Dewar lab use #trypanosomes to investigate molecular mechanisms involved in keeping vital mitochondria working. The extraordinary single tryp mito helps illuminate novel features of mitochondrial quality control pathways while informing drug discovery for #sleepingsickness #WorldNTDDay #BeatNTDs
