Closing out 2024, a new publication in the main journal explores the use of a fly model in the understanding of Short-Chain Enoyl-CoA Hydratase 1 (ECHS1) Deficiency.

Excited to share our synthetic diet that supports #Drosophila development in collab with Piper Lab @MonashBiol. We show its use for precision nutrition for rare metabolic disorders. #nutrigenomics and #diseasemodelling 🪰🍔. @SABE_latrobe @LIMSLTU nature.com/articles/s41598-0…

I'm proud of every paper, but this one is special. Here with PiperLab @MonashBiol, we couple the power of #Drosophila with a completely synthetic diet to find potential treatments for rare inherited metabolic disorders @SABE_latrobe @LIMSLTU #RareDiseaseDay2024 🧵

Using flies enables us to look at many IMDs at a time and test many flies for each. This could open new avenues for dietary therapy for patients with these terrible rare disorders. #RareDiseaseDay2024

Fantastic to see the excellent work of @Lee_B_Miles out as a preprint. CRIMP- an insertional mutagenesis approach allowing visual identification of founders and a plasmid toolkit to apply it to any gene. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… #zebrafish #CRISPR
