Neurodegeneration and stroke research lab at QBI. We specialise in epigenetics and mitochondria in C. elegans.
University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia
Joined June 2016
Out today! We find that an epigenetic modification (6mA) to the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) influences lifespan and the heritability of mtDNA mutations to the next generation. It implies that epigenetics determines genetic composition in future offspring.

Anne from tha lab, has a podcast episode!.
While many products promise to reverse ageing without scientific backing, the real secret may lie in epigenetics!. Dr Anne Hahn discusses her research into a mechanism in DNA that regulates the inheritance of disease-causing mutations. Listen: @ZurynLab

Nice.
Super excited to share our latest work on the native in-cell organization of the mitochondrial respiratory chain 🥳.Using cryo-electron tomography🔬, we show how the respiratory complexes (and other complexes) are organized inside native mitochondria! .

Very cool that our lab will be part of this new NHMRC centre of research excellence led by Prof Jürgen Götz @AustraliaGoetz to investigate the mitochondrial contribution to Alzheimer's disease and treatments 👏 @QldBrainInst.
Exciting news! #UQ researchers at have secured two $3 million grants from the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) to fast-track Alzheimer's disease treatments and enhance gynaecological cancer care. Read:

We find that mtDNA 6mA is wdiely conserved across animals and plants, including human cells implying an ancient mechanism of regulation. This work was driven by Dr Anne Hahn in the lab and is out in @Cell_Metabolism.
