🏆 Congrats to @julianedagraca.bsky.social! Former PhD student at INEM, Juliane has been awarded the 2025 Thesis Prize of the @clubexo-endo.bsky.social for her work on ER-endosome contact sites & autophagy regulation. 👏 Well done, Juliane! @membramics-lab.bsky.social

🗓️ Join us on Friday, April 4, for a #seminar with Dr. Meryem Baghdadi, new team leader at INEM (StemNest Lab), on "Stem cell regulation in homeostasis and disease." Don't miss this talk exploring how stem cells maintain tissue balance — and what happens when this goes wrong!

🚨 New: Spleen-resident macrophages (MMMs) can directly activate CD8+ T cells to fight tumors – independently of dendritic cells. They use a vacuolar MHC-I pathway & need Batf3 for this antitumor response. 🧠 A game-changer for immunotherapy? 🔗 www.cell.com/immunity/abs... @cp-immunity.bsky.social

🗓️ Join us on Friday, March 28, for a #seminar with Dr. @goetzjacky.bsky.social (Centre de recherche en biomédecine de Strasbourg) on "Multi-modal tracking of metastasis: from priming to inhibitory targets." 🔍 A great chance to dive into new insights on cancer metastasis. @membramics-lab.bsky.social

🗓️ Join us on Friday, March 21, for a #seminar with Dr. Olivier Tabary on "ANO1: A new approach for cystic fibrosis — from basic science to translational studies." Don't miss this opportunity to learn more about new therapeutic avenues in #CysticFibrosis research!

📖 [NEW] PI3K-driven leukemias exploit glutamine metabolism for survival. @guillaumeandrieu.bsky.social et al. show that mTOR inhibition + glutamine degradation induces potent cytotoxicity— a novel strategy to target metabolic adaptation in PI3K-driven cancers. 🔗 nature.com/articles/s41...

🦠 Shigella flexneri exploits a human-specific miRNA to spread! New study shows that miR-6762-5p activates RhoA GTPase, enhancing cytoskeleton remodeling & boosting bacterial dissemination. Host-pathogen interplay at the molecular level! 📖 Read more: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

🗓️ Join us on Friday, March 14, for a #seminar with Prof. Aurélien Roux (Biochemistry Dept, University of Geneva) on ESCRT-III membrane remodelling insights from Asgard archaea. Don't miss this opportunity to learn more about membrane dynamics! @membramics-lab.bsky.social

🗓️ Join us on Friday, March 3, for a #seminar with Prof. Peter Sebo (Institute of Microbiology, @czechacademy.bsky.social) on the resurgence of whooping cough and how it works. Don't miss this opportunity to learn more about this pressing issue!

🧠 How do blood-borne factors support cognitive resilience? New study in @natureaging.bsky.social reveals a primary cilium–autophagy axis in hippocampal neurons, mediating the effects of osteocalcin on neuronal plasticity & aging. 🔗 Read here: www.nature.com/articles/s43...
