Jena’s string of cellular secretion findings include his recent discovery of a new cellular structure called the porosome, the molecular machinery all cells use for secretion.
Deciphering the structure and function of cell secretion at the molecular level is particularly relevant for understanding where things are going wrong in diseases like diabetes, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, explains Jena, George E.
