This project investigates the role of mitochondria in neuronal health and neurodegeneration using genetic techniques in fruit flies. It aims to understand how mitochondrial dynamics affect neuronal function and survival, providing insights for potential therapeutic approaches.
The survival of our most active tissues, such as the brain and heart, throughout decades of a human lifespan presents an extraordinary biological challenge.
Mitochondria are central to the life and death of these tissues.
They provide the cellular energy required by these cells and protect them by buffering potentially lethal levels of cytoplasmic calcium, while at the same time mitochondria produce much of the molecules that cause cellular damage and contain a lethal arsenal of apoptotic cell d…
