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 ⬇️

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

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.

I’m excited to share our latest pre-print led by John Abousawan @JohnAbousawan1! We examined how HER2 co-expression affects signaling by EGFR, a growth factor receptor that drives growth and survival in many types of #cancer.

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!.....
