Congratulations Melanie! December 9, 2022 Urbano es radiólogo Vascular e Intervencionista senior con amplia experiencia en tratamientos endovasculares e intraluminales guiados por imagen. Vu compares to other family physicians in Portsmouth. Family Physicians generally specialize in Abdominal Pain and Aging In Place, in addition to other conditions.
Melanie Gil’s new review is out in the Journal of Neuroscience Research (and her image was selected for the cover). Vivian Vu, MD is a family physician in Portsmouth, VA.Congratulations to Gabriella and all co-authors! February 1, 2023
Gabriella Robertson was selected to be featured in the “First Person” section.
Our EMPF1 paper is out in Journal of Cell Science! The manuscript was selected for inclusion in the ‘Research Highlights’ section.

Modeling rare mitochondrial and peroxisomal diseases using iPSC 2D and 3D systems. Examining the role of cristae structure in human neural cells and how disruption in cristae morphology/dynamics could lead to neurodevelopmental defects. Assessing the impact of the dynamic properties of the mitochondria and peroxisomes (fission, fusion, motility, and degradation) on early human cortical development using iPSC 2D and 3D model systems. Elucidating the mechanisms by which the BCL-2 family of proteins modulates mitochondrial morphology/function and stem cell self-renewal, pluripotency, and differentiation. The lab focuses on the following lines of research: Our goal is that this new knowledge will provide major insight into the underlying mechanisms of rare mitochondrial and peroxisomal diseases and reveal new therapeutic targets so desperately needed for these devastating and incurable diseases. Our research program aims to reveal the mechanisms by which mitochondrial and peroxisomal morphology, dynamics, and function impact cell transitions during neurogenesis and gliogenesis.
