Happy and proud to share this story! 🎉
We show that, when it comes to juvenile malnutrition, sex really matters ♂️♀️🐁
We also uncover a crucial, sexually dimorphic role of FGF21 in these adaptations 💥

Today in the USA, women are TWICE as likely to DIE giving birth than their mothers were a generation ago.
And TRUMP's War on Women continues with ending the landmark Women's Health Study: www.science.org/content/arti...

It's the beginning of a new adventure: I just started as a postdoctoral researcher at the @crick.ac.uk in the group of @irenemiguel-aliaga.bsky.social 🎉
I'll be working on #SexDifferences and reproductive remodelling of the gastro-intestinal tract in 🐭
Excited and grateful for this opportunity!
