Proud to be a European scientist and vocal champion of #DEI now and always.

Countdown to an epic new pre-print.

Mitochondria are cells within our cells. They need the same core activities - replication, transcription, translation. How do cells enable these diverse activities in both compartments? We uncover an unexpected + broad strategy with ancient origins. Stay tuned!
