Researchers have long known that diet had a role to play in treating Inherited Metabolic Disorders. The problem is that each one is unique — so rare, that medicine did not have the tools to develop new treatments. Enter the fruit fly. brnw.ch/21wHOB8 @TravisKJohnson

I'm proud of every paper, but this one is special. Here with PiperLab @MonashBiol, we couple the power of #Drosophila with a completely synthetic diet to find potential treatments for rare inherited metabolic disorders @SABE_latrobe @LIMSLTU #RareDiseaseDay2024 🧵
