12/18/2020, Yumiko and Yuta's last day

We needed to say good-bye to our lab mates, a post-doc Yumiko and a rotation student Yuta. The good news is that they stay in OIST. Yuta will come back to us in Sep 2021 as a Ph.D. student, and Yumiko will move to the Husnik unit. Yumiko worked with us for two years and contributed a lot to the work on the plasma membrane damage responses. We will miss her Okinawan mind, "nankurunaisa (If you work hard and stay on the right path, a better day will come in the end)". Yumiko, thank you very much, and all the best for your next journey!

G0 Cell Unit work on fission yeast cells in low-glucose may lead to new research into metabolic diseases

Researchers at the OIST G0 Cell Unit have found that the actual glucose requirements of fission yeast cells and human cells are surprisingly similar and that the life span of fission yeast could be prolonged by glucose starvation, an effect that had been observed in higher organisms like human beings.
