✨Brilliant thesis dissertation by Andrés Gámez, codirected by Dr. Alex Vaquero (@vaquerolab) and Dr. Berta Vázquez (@Bertava4) yesterday at the Auditorium!!

"The role of sirtuins in haematopoiesis and leukaemia"

Proud to see our young researchers moving up in their career 💪

[Chromatin biology Lab @vaquerolab]

Another PhD in the @CarrerasIJC neighborhood! Fantastic experience yesterday in the PhD defense of Andrés Gámez, a highly talented student from our group, on the role of SIRT7 in B-cell differentiation through PAX5. Many thanks to the PhD committee.

Sirtuins rule! 🦾🦾🦾

En #LungCancerWorldDay hay que reivindicar la investigación básica y traslacional. Los descubrimientos de los últimos 20 años han sido claves en el desarrollo de terapias en #cancerpulmon. El futuro es esperanzador! @SOSCLC_AECC @ContraCancerEs @ASEICAnews

I am happy to share that @molecular_guy paper is online! https://t.co/wb1n9FcpkU
We can imagine REST and SIRT6 as a rowing team. In healthy brains, they work together, moving forward and protecting brain function.

Grateful to J Nie, Ashley Ng and Stephen Nutt @WEHI_research for the detailed and thoughtful News & Views @NatImmunol on our recent work in the same journal exploring the role of SIRT7 in PAX5-dependent B-cell differentiation

Here it is! Our paper on how protein deacetylase SIRT7 promotes B cell development is out today in @NatImmunol. Such a honor to contribute to this work with @vaquerolab and amazing PhD student Andrés Gámez. Many thanks to all collaborators!! https://t.co/YAmAS7D7mf

[Chromatin biology Lab @vaquerolab]

Check out our last publication @vaquerolab @CarrerasIJC at @NatImmunol by A.Gámez, and led by @Bertava4 and me, on a SIRT7-dependent mechanism of Pax5 regulation in B-cell differentiation and B-ALL. Thanks to all collaborators and funding @ContraCancerEs

Nuclear expansion and chromatin structure remodeling in mouse aging neurons https://t.co/sN15Wr2QeG
Our DNA is typically organized within the cell nucleus like highways connected by bridges and loops, facilitating the use of the genetic information encoded within.

Check out our new article! We have found that SIRT7 and p53 co-regulate gene expression programs related to extracellular matrix and lineage specification, with important implications for early embryogenesis and cancer dissemination.#sirtuins
