Associate Professor of Cell and Developmental Biology, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, studying autophagy, metabolism, behaviors, and more
Gave a talk on autophagy and exercise today at the Molecular and Cellular Aging Meeting in San Diego; while I was speaking artist and prof. Alex Cagan @ATJCagan from Univ of Cambridge drew me a sketch😃Thanks Alex for the amazing portrait! Great meeting and so many interactions
My student Jack Qin @Jack67923710 just won the biggest award of 400+ Hershey's Kisses and a DuMOL pinot noir in the number guessing competition at our departmental holiday party @NU_CDB😁Good job Jack👏
A thorough Research Highlight by @NatureRevEndo promoting our work on how autophagy in non-contracting tissues drives exercise-induced metabolic benefits

Our new study @Cell_Metabolism on how exercise elicits systemic metabolic benefits via liver autophagy, induced by muscle-secreted FN1 in the exercised blood!🏃
Thank you @EMBOJournal@emboreports and the 10th ISA organizers for the Speaker award at such an exciting meeting. It was awesome to share our recent discoveries and see so many friends in Sapporo after a long 3-yr break!
Congratulations to Dr. CongCong He @CongCongHe from Feinberg School of Medicine @NUFeinbergMed at @NorthwesternU on winning the @EMBOJournal Speaker Prize award at the 10th International Symposium on #Autophagy that took place in Sapporo, Japan.
Thank @Jiang_Lab@UICPhysiology and many colleagues and friends at UIC for a wonderful day of visit. Glad and honored to be the 1st in-person guest over a long time
Friday, September 9 - @UICPhysiology Seminar Series welcomes Dr. Congcong He @CongcongHe from Northwestern University will present on “Autophagy in the Regulation of Exercise-induced Metabolic Benefits”
Thanks to @CurrentBiology for inviting me to write about #Economyinbiology. Our new review discusses how cells allocate and mobilize scarce resources via autophagy under stresses. I think cells are apparently better in handling economic crisis than humans! https://t.co/PYaX38nUVa
Great enjoyment to write this News & Views https://t.co/KseD7mQLLk @NatureCellBio on an exquisite study by @AMCuervoLab: CMA and the clock machinery regulate each other and form a feedback loop to maintain daily oscillation in clock protein abundance, CMA activity and behaviors!
We are recruiting postdocs who are interested in autophagy and metabolic regulation of neurons @NUFeinbergMed@NorthwesternU . Contact me if you’d like to know more! https://t.co/UYl6I59VRG
