Interesting #physiology research from @tim_m_curtis & colleagues at @WWIEM_QUB exploring the mechanisms of possible drug treatment for diabetic retinopathy.

Will be interesting to examine in future work if the recently-reported ultrastructural changes in the retinal neurovascular unit with diabetes (link.springer.com/article/10…) are prevented with 2-HDP.

I am biased but Safi's is doing a fantastic job leveraging a new research model. Some new biology...including (spoiler alert)... the effect of the T6SS...
We're pleased to announce, Safi Rehman, as one of the finalists of the 2023 Sir Howard Dalton Young Microbiologist of the Year competition, which recognises excellence in science communication from our early career Society members: microb.io/3LD6EtO

Do bacteria target mitochondria using the same weapons as they do to compete each other? YES. Check our work on how Klebsiella T6SS targets the mitochondria @NatureComms. We also shed new light into mitochondria located innate receptor NLRX1. nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
Great opportunity to work with my colleague, Dr Guilherme Costa, on an exciting new vascular biology project.
