My name is Marian and I am the project lead of the mitochondria subgroup within the @BrainAWG
We have been working on a very exciting project that investigates mitochondrial dysfunction in both spaceflight and Alzheimer’s Disease, specifically regarding the production of ROS and OxPhos abnormalities. We are using Drosophila Melanogaster (fruit flies) as our model organism to observe how spaceflight (specifically microgravity and radiation) affect mitochondria, and how that compares with Alzheimer’s Disease pathology.
As we grow closer to writing and submitting our manuscript, we are interested in recruiting more members in helping out. We currently need assistance with:
I hope you are doing well. My name is Shivam Kushwaha.
I came across your post about the mitochondria subgroup project, and I found the research focus really interesting—especially the work on mitochondrial dysfunction, ROS production, and OxPhos abnormalities.
I have a strong interest in R programming and data analysis, and I would love to contribute to the project by helping with data processing, analysis, and interpretation (such as heat maps, volcano plots, and related analyses). This would also be a great learning opportunity for me, and I am very motivated to support the team as you move toward manuscript submission.
Please let me know if there is any way I can assist or if you would like me to look at any datasets.
Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
