MAGPIEZ project: Tuning the force for remote magnetomechanical gating of Piezo1 channels. (2022-2024)

[Susel Del Sol Fernández @SuselDelSol]

🚨New paper out!
I’m thrilled to share our MagPiezo platform, a novel magnetogenetic tech using <20 nm nanoparticles + a custom applicator to remotely activate Piezo1 in endothelial cells 🧲🧬
Huge thanks to my supervisor & amazing co-authors

This week, @Nature published an article on how I use mathematical models to study what is otherwise very hard to measure: the scale and dynamics of cartels.

How a mathematician is cracking open Mexico's powerful drug cartels.

La Dra. @SuselDelSol lidera un breakthrough en mecanobiología: fuerzas picoNewton activan de forma selectiva Piezo1 sin modificación genética.
Publicado en #AdvFuncMat, el estudio introduce MagPiezo, (1/2)

[Susel Del Sol Fernández @SuselDelSol]

Big news! 🧲⚡ MagPiezo enables remote, non-invasive activation of endogenous Piezo1 with low magnetic fields — no genetic modification.
This paper caps my MSCA fellowship 🚀 and opens a new chapter at @icf_unam

✅✅ A reminder by Dr. Rahaf Ajaj:

She wasn’t on the Stanford list… but she made it to the Nobel stage. 🏅

Mary E. Brunkow, one of this year’s Nobel Prize winners in Medicine, has only 34 published papers and an H-index of 21.

She never appeared in Stanford’s ranking of the world’s top 2% of scientists.
She didn’t chase citations, metrics, or the spotlight.

Yet, she became part of a discovery that changed how humanity understands the immune system.

Today, while many are busy chasing numbers, titles, and rankings —
she reminds us what truly matters in science: the question.

🔹 She wasn’t running after the lists.
🔹 She was running after the truth.

Because in the end, it’s not about how many papers you publish…
It’s about how deeply your idea can reshape the world.

Focus on your idea, not your ranking.

La UNAM y el Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas de España (CSIC) firmaron un convenio general de colaboración en la Torre de Rectoría. El #RectorLomelí destacó que la investigación científica es un medio de transformación social y de acercamiento entre México y España.
Eloísa del Pino Matute, presidenta del @CSIC, señaló que la UNAM es el “socio natural” del Consejo, y fortalecerán programas de intercambio, movilidad académica y proyectos conjuntos en ciencias y humanidades.

More than 40 percent of #postdocs leave academia. Those who landed a coveted faculty position were more likely to have had a highly cited paper, changed their research topic between their #PhD and postdoc, or moved abroad after receiving their doctorate. https://t.co/SkU2JVisuu @PNASNews -> https://t.co/GZKmXombKN #ScienceCareer
