All living systems function out of equilibrium and exchange energy in the form of heat with
their environment. Thus, heat flow can inform on the energetic costs of cellular processes, …

Prohibitin ring complexes in the mitochondrial inner membrane regulate cell proliferation as
well as the dynamics and function of mitochondria. Although prohibitins are essential in …

Cells are the basic units of all living matter which harness the flow of energy to drive the
processes of life. While the biochemical networks involved in energy transduction are well-…

In Drosophila larvae, growth and developmental timing are regulated by nutrition in a tightly
coordinated fashion. The networks that couple these processes are far from understood. …

Ecdysteroids are the hormones regulating development, physiology and fertility in arthropods,
which synthesize them exclusively from dietary sterols. But how dietary sterol diversity …

Developing embryos are metabolically active, open systems that constantly exchange matter
and energy with their environment. They function out of thermodynamic equilibrium and …

Nuclear bodies are cellular compartments that lack lipid bilayers and harbor specific RNAs
and proteins. Recent proposals that nuclear bodies form through liquid-liquid phase …

Lipids exert diverse functions in living organisms. They form cellular membranes, store and
transport energy and play signalling roles. Some lipid species function in all of these …

Recovery from the quiescent developmental stage called dauer is an essential process in C.
elegans and provides an excellent model to understand how metabolic transitions …

How do early embryos allocate the resources stored in the sperm and egg? Recently, we
established isothermal calorimetry to measure heat dissipation by living zebrafish embryos and …
