Fascinated by the lysosomal degradatiion pathway called #autophagy, how it intersects with secretion and how it influences #cancer, aging and neurodegeneration.
Another great @UCSF Endeavor Mini-symposium with @TheMarkFdn-funded team. 9 short talks on our different #cancer#metastasis-focused projects, social time together, and great invited seminar by @cncurtis from #Stanford. Great brainstorm discussion for the next phase!
Renowned researcher and radiation oncologist Dr. Alec Kimmelman, whose discoveries have created new hope for patients, has been named director of the Laura and Isaac Perlmutter Cancer Center at NYU Langone Health.

Honored to be inducted into the AAP, honor society for physician-scientists along w @DebnathLabUCSF. Thanks to Alec Kimmelman for nominating. Strong representation for #autophagy research.
The 2024 GRC on #autophagy in Stress, Development and Disease is scheduled for March 10-15, 2024 at Renaissance Tuscany Il Ciocco, Lucca (Barga), Italy. The associated GRS is scheduled for March 9-10 at the same location.
Last day in Debnath lab for my AWESOME post-docs Drew Leidal (2nd from left) and Teresa Monkkonen (right). Both becoming Assistant Professors this Jan 2023! Drew at Univ. Calgary and Teresa at SDSU. Congrats and good luck to both and thanks for all you did during pandemic times.
New study on secretory autophagy from our lab by recent PhD graduate Jackson Gardner. LDELS controls transferrin receptor (TFRC) secretion via #extracellularvesicles

@AMCuervoLab@AgingCell Super cool! Just like the many degradative pathways (UPS, macroAP, eMI, CMA), we are finding multiple exocytic pathways (eMI, SALI, LDELS). Cells under proteostatic stress have so many options!
