🚨Excited to share this new review in @febsj.bsky.social by our #FOR5762 project leader @thevilchezlab.bsky.social!

The article explores how organelle #proteostasis preserves cellular function, and how its decline contributes to #aging and disease.

🚨Thrilled to share this exciting new paper by our #FOR5762 project leader @bjornschumacher.bsky.social, published in #NatureAging!

The study uncovers neuron-specific aging patterns and points to potential neuroprotective interventions.

Congratulations! 🎉
