#HelmholtzDiabetes2025 How is liver metabolism linked to diabetes type 2?🧬 This year’s conference spotlights the connection between diabetes and liver health. The rising global incidence of fatty liver disease – and its role in the onset and progression of diabetes – makes this a critical area of research. 💡 Prof. Anja Zeigerer is co-host of the conference and researcher at #HelmholtzMunich and the Medical Faculty of Heidelberg University. Her research focuses on liver metabolism – uncovering how nutrient transport at the molecular level drives metabolic diseases like diabetes and obesity. 🎥 Watch the video below to hear Anja Zeigerer explain why understanding liver metabolism is key to tackling type 2 diabetes ⬇️ @helmholtz_diabc @ZeigererLab #DiabetesResearch #LiverHealth #FattyLiverDisease #Obesity #Type2Diabetes #MedicalResearch

New posting! This has some reflections on the scandal at the 2023 Lindau Nobel Laureate meeting, where a Laureate complained of being discriminated against as a white man. Unusually, a courageous young scientist actually called him out on it. #WomenInSTEM totalinternalreflectionblog.…

Happy to share the final version of this paper! We found mechanisms that make receptor signalling dependent on membrane lipids and specific nanodomains. EGFR signaling becomes cholesterol, flotillin, and c-Src dependent when HER2 is co-expressed. journals.biologists.com/jcs/…

I’m excited to share our latest pre-print led by John Abousawan @JohnAbousawan1! We examined how HER2 co-expression affects signaling by EGFR, a growth factor receptor that drives growth and survival in many types of #cancer. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Replying to @BMBF_Bund
Mit dieser Regel wäre meine und die akademische Karriere so ziemlich aller meiner KollegInnen unmöglich gewesen. Das ist Sabotage an den Karrierechancen junger Wissenschaftler/innen und am Wissenschaftsstandort Deutschland.
