We know it has been a while since April, but let us tell you about La Fira de la Recerca en Directe, an amazing Science Fair in which we were involved (yes, in April… these have been very busy months!). During 4 days, we were at the CosmoCaixa Science museum, showing our research and doing […]
Our latest paper is out! In collaboration with the Frizzell lab at the University of South Carolina we have published the article titled: “Succination is increased on select proteins in the brainstem of the Ndufs4 knockout mouse, a model of Leigh syndrome.” in the journal Molecular and Cellular Proteomics.

In this study, the Bellen […]
