Zusammenfassung:First Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Journal of Cell Science, helping early-career researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Leyao Shen and Deepika Sharma are co-first authors on ‘Biphasic regulation of glutamine consumption by WNT during osteoblast differentiation’, published in JCS. Leyao is a PhD student in the lab of Courtney Karner at Duke University School of Medicine, Durham, NC, United States, investigating the role of amino acid metabolism in osteoblast differentiation during bone development. Deepika is a post-doc in the same lab, who is interested in understanding the role of metabolism during bone formation and maintenance in order to identify novel targets for bone disorders.
