For those attending the #ECI2024, @nanaborsa is speaking today at Workshop 36 about how inheritance of old #mitochondria relies on #autophagy and shapes #Tcell fate decision.
Had a great time talking about T cell ageing during the #ECI2024 Pint of Immunology. Big thanks to the organizers @pintofscienceIE and all those who engaged and made the discussion so interesting. #autophagy #DamAge @aksimonlab

We have 2 open PhD positions at the @MDC_Berlin in 2025 as part of the exciting @MSCActions UNION Doctoral Network. Rotation opportunities in other excellent European labs to embark on projects at the intersection of aging and immunity. Contacts below #PhDPosition.
Thrilled that we have been awarded UNION (UnderstadiNg frailty tOwards a future of healthy ageiNg), a Marie Curie Doctorate Network funding 13 PhD students in 2024-28 to push the boundaries of what we know and can do to promote healthy ageing.

What does autophagy degrade to maintain a healthy immune cell? Katja and other leaders in the autophagy field discuss this and other questions they believe are key for us to deepen our understanding of this fundamental cellular mechanism. @NatureCellBio

Nature Cell Biology - Our understanding of the basic mechanisms of autophagy is growing, but many questions remain about the types of autophagy cells use, when they use them, and how they function...
