In this episode with Dr Sarnataro, we explore techniques used during his recent PhD to investigate the mitochondrial dynamics in neurons of sleeping fruitflies. Raffaele also offers advice on how to make the most of an Oxford PhD position. Raffaele Sarnataro — Department of Physiology, Anatomy and Genetics (DPAG) (ox.ac.uk)
