It’s been a while! Several updates to the lab over the past few months…

• Rahiim Lake passed his PhD qualifier exam last fall (congrats!)
• We hosted the 11th annual TRiMAD (Translational Research in Mitochondria Aging & Disease) conference here in October, attended by over 160 people.
• Paul spoke at a number of conferences and outside institutions, including a conference at UPenn on research integrity, resulting in this paper.
• The University finally adopted and published the Open Access Publishing Guidelines that we worked to bring through the faculty senate. It only took 7 years!
• Paul went back to school in the Executive MBA program at UofR’s Simon School of Business (anticipated graduation May 2026). It resulted in finally (reluctantly) getting a linked-in page.
• Post-doc Sabarna Chowdhury got married in April 2025 (congrats!)
• Lots of other papers got published, including some exciting work on taurine metabolism with the Bajaj lab in the (newly NCI designated) Cancer Center, which is accepted for publication in Nature.
