Very much enjoying @ErikaFatland’s excellent Himalayan travelogue High. Perfect summer escapism. Really touched to see our research with @XtremeEverest on Sherpa mitochondria gets a mention!

Excited to share my PhD work investigating how nitrate impacts metabolism in diet-induced obesity, now out on BioRxiv as a preprint! 👇 Many thanks to @andrewmurray78, @julesgrif, Martin Feelisch (not on Twitter) and everyone who worked on this project
Chronic inorganic nitrate supplementation does not improve metabolic health and worsens disease progression in mice with diet-induced obesity. biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor… #bioRxiv

Thank you to @RobWust @RichieGoulding1 @m_eggelbusch and others for a warm reception @VUamsterdam. I knew I’d enjoy the science but didn’t expect walking on water to be on the agenda.

Wonderful to see this work out. Congratulations to our collaborators @joycelyntsi @DPhaz @IMS_MRL. Thank you for involving us in this important study!
Beyond excited to share my first paper from my PhD @DPhaz Lab @IMS_MRL now out in @embojournal! Special thanks to Sam from @TVPLab and @dougall_norris for co-leading this project with me. We found that many cell culture models, despite living in 18% oxygen, are hypoxic! 🧵below: embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…
