🚨 I’m thrilled to announce that my PhD paper has just been published in @JCellBiol🥳🚨
We find that parallel phospholipid transfer by Vps13 and Atg2 determines the dynamics of autophagosome biogenesis 🍩

It's official: the PhD Club has a new member 🎉 on Monday I successfully defended my PhD #PhDone & of course I couldn't be happier 🥰. Although admittedly it still hasn't really sunk in. Looking forward to a break 🧘 before starting my Postdoc in the Brüning Lab here in #Cologne
Excited to see that Thomas will give a keynote presentation at this mitochondria and metabolism focued conference in Osaka @osaka_univ_e, Japan!

🚨 Out now! Bernd Bauer and the @martens_sascha lab reveal in @embojournal how the cargo receptor TAX1BP1 faciliates the switch from cargo collection to sequestration, a process crucial for aggrephagy - the cell's way of recycling aggregated proteins ♻️ ➡️ https://t.co/NVnlu9JNeT
Noboru shows a 'MD simulation'. ATG9 vesicles move freely due to thermodynamic fluctuations. When they contact the OPTN droplet in the center of the screen, the ATG9 vesicles are captured and anchored to the droplet due to the wetting effect (Mizushima et al. unpublished)
@stephalcantara @DAngelidaki @JNuchel@JiyoungPan Congratulations again Steph! I'm so happy for and proud of you. You're an amazing scientist who deserves to take a moment to enjoy this huge success! A bottle of champagne to go with it is on me 🍾🥂❤️
🥳🚨Preprint Alert!🚨🥳
Excited to release this #preprint@biorxiv_cellbio led by our postdoc Sri @Sri_chandragiri!! We addressed the question "how #mitochondria adapt to hypoxia" and identified the AFG3L2 protease as a key player! Congratulations Sri🎉😁!

My flight to Naples is about to depart✈️🇮🇹 looking forward to meeting other #autophagy enthusiasts and a week full of hopefully interesting talks and fruitful discussions #EMBOAutophagy24
Last day in the lab 👩🔬 before I'll start writing my PhD thesis #homeoffice Hopefully all of the WB worked so I can also include them in the thesis #Phdlife#autophagy
💊⚧️What exactly is gender medicine?
Researchers at the #UniCologne show that there are still significant knowledge gaps in medicine for all genders. They are working to change that and provide more precise treatments for everyone.

Looking at the list of speakers, this will surely be an amazing conference! #autophagy#proteostasis
If I wouldn't defend my PhD in March I'd definitely register. #phdlife
#FCQC2025: Registration open https://t.co/CtA8SaToyh
Join us for a high-caliber line-up of talks on quality control mechanisms & networks, the interplay of autophagy & ubiquitin in health & disease, novel therapeutics using the ubiquitin system.

Interested in endometriosis research? 🩸
We are looking for a computational candidate for the Pasteur-Paris University PhD program to join a fantastic international collab between my lab, @afilimon and L. Doridot!
Please RT!
🚨 New paper alert from @martenssascha!🚨
We explore how transmembrane cargo receptors initiate selective autophagy. Through biochemical reconstitutions, we discover a new autophagosome biogenesis pathway with implications for therapeutic interventions.
