#HelmholtzDiabetes2025 How is liver metabolism linked to diabetes type 2?🧬 This year’s conference spotlights the connection between diabetes and liver health. The rising global incidence of fatty liver disease – and its role in the onset and progression of diabetes – makes this a critical area of research. 💡 Prof. Anja Zeigerer is co-host of the conference and researcher at #HelmholtzMunich and the Medical Faculty of Heidelberg University. Her research focuses on liver metabolism – uncovering how nutrient transport at the molecular level drives metabolic diseases like diabetes and obesity. 🎥 Watch the video below to hear Anja Zeigerer explain why understanding liver metabolism is key to tackling type 2 diabetes ⬇️ @helmholtz_diabc @ZeigererLab #DiabetesResearch #LiverHealth #FattyLiverDisease #Obesity #Type2Diabetes #MedicalResearch

New posting! This has some reflections on the scandal at the 2023 Lindau Nobel Laureate meeting, where a Laureate complained of being discriminated against as a white man. Unusually, a courageous young scientist actually called him out on it. #WomenInSTEM totalinternalreflectionblog.…

Happy to share the final version of this paper! We found mechanisms that make receptor signalling dependent on membrane lipids and specific nanodomains. EGFR signaling becomes cholesterol, flotillin, and c-Src dependent when HER2 is co-expressed. journals.biologists.com/jcs/…

Mit dieser Regel wäre meine und die akademische Karriere so ziemlich aller meiner KollegInnen unmöglich gewesen. Das ist Sabotage an den Karrierechancen junger Wissenschaftler/innen und am Wissenschaftsstandort Deutschland.

A threat to all scientists in Germany, particularly to postdocs: On 17 March the German Ministry of Science released a paper on the planned amendment of the German Act on Temporary Scientific Contracts. Contracts for postdocs shall be limited to 3 years - then you are out!.....
