Mitochondrial Metabolism and mtDNA regulation

We will define the role of metabolism in the regulation of mtDNA homeostasis and mitochondrial function.

Metabolic regulation of mtDNA size across scales

AIM3WEB.png

We combine advanced imaging, metabolic profiling, cellular stress and disease models to uncover new principles of metabolic regulation of mtDNA and mitochondrial function across yeast, mammalian cells, and mouse models. We also aim to integrate evolutionary and mathematical frameworks to understand how long-term metabolic pressures shape mtDNA size.
