Genluminati follows a group of young scientists who invent a DNA-based religion as a cynical experiment—only to lose control of it when belief spreads, and a prophet emerges. Did the concept begin as #satire for you, or did you always see it turning dark? wp.me/p3cyvH-LYH?utm_campaig…

SIRT6 decline throws Off Mood, Sleep, and Cognition. rdcu.be/eTvJj Tryptophan byproducts build proteins, NAD , and neurotransmitters (serotonin and melatonin). Yet, in aging and neurological disease, this balance is lost, leading to impaired mood, learning, and sleep.

Crucially, we show that this damage isn't permanent. By inhibiting the enzyme TDO2 in our SIRT6 knockout fly model, we were able to significantly reverse both neuromotor decline and vacuolar formation, indicating a powerful therapeutic window.

This positions SIRT6 as a critical, upstream drug target for combating neurodegenerative pathology. Amazing work by Shai Kaluski-Kopatch, and collaborators

GENLUMINATI is now available! In this work of fiction, a group of university friends studying biology becomes obsessed with the idea of creating a religion based on “reading your own genome to achieve enlightenment.” Kindle lnkd.in/dBgqFPBm

They turn it into a social experiment, testing people’s faith. The book explores their lives as PhD students doing research and as the masterminds behind a new religion, delving into moral and ethical dilemmas when things spiral out of control. Paperback lnkd.in/dUeyR9Mx

We’re excited to unveil our new joint work (with @ToiberDebbie and many fantastic collaborators) on how pharmacological activation of SIRT6 (via MDL-800) reshapes tumor metabolism and blocks tumor growth in HNSCC & ESCC models. @SpringerNature rdcu.be/eLBPC
