Mitochondria are vital organelles. In our lab we primarily exploit the roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans as a model organism to investigate the role of mitochondrial stress responses (MSR) in neuropathologies and ageing (Schiavi et al. Curr Biol 2015, Torgovnick et al. EMBO Reports 2018, Maglioni et al. Nat Commun 2022). More info about the lab can
