Congratulations to the organisers! Really great conference, had a great time! :) 😀
SEFAGIA@sefagia.bsky.social · 9mo agoTo be honest, we are still thinking about #SEFAGIA2025. What a blast… Thank you very, very much to everybody, from the invited speakers to all the sponsors and Orexco for making it possible. See you all in the next one! 🙂
@drjimenezmoreno.bsky.social in the room now... amazing as always, she is showing us her wonderful results about PRKAR1A and FAM134B #SEFAGIA2025

Very honored to share my experience as a postdoc for #NationalPostdocAppreciationWeek
Institute of Genetics and Cancer@uoe-igc.bsky.social · 11mo agoThis week is #NationalPostdocAppreciationWeek celebrating the significant contributions postdocs make to research. Here @drjimenezmoreno.bsky.social talks about her job as a postdoc, understanding the role of autophagy in health and disease: edin.ac/4nR9En9 @cmvm-edinburghuni.bsky.social
Very excited to share that I have been awarded my very first pilot grant by Tenovus Scotland! I will be studying the potential of targeting endoplasmic reticulum degradation to prevent metastasis in pancreatic cancer. Wish me luck! 😀 @uoe-igc.bsky.social @edinburgh-uni.bsky.social #autophagy
Happy to share my first publication, where we present our discovery of multi-chaperone condensates that orchestrate protein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Selective autophagy of organelles: the “disorder” is key. Intrinsically disordered regions of organellophagy receptors are interchangeable, required, and sufficient for organelle fragmentation and lysosomal delivery … and all about ORGATACs 😉 rdcu.be/ey8iL
The intrinsically disordered regions of organellophagy receptors are interchangeable and control organelle fragmentation, ER-phagy and mitophagy flux
Nature Cell Biology - Rudinskiy et al. examine organellophagy receptor features, finding modules of functionally conserved intrinsically disordered regions and defining shared features despite...

It is finally out! My first Science paper is online and it does not seem real😃. I am Incredibly happy! Really thanks to all my coauthors and special mention to my incredible supervisor Ivan Dikic for all the support and trust ! 🫶. #RNA #Proteostasis #ubiquitin #autophagy #RP doi.org/10.1126/scie...
Pathogenic proteotoxicity of cryptic splicing is alleviated by ubiquitination and ER-phagy
RNA splicing enables the functional adaptation of cells to changing contexts. Impaired splicing has been associated with diseases, including retinitis pigmentosa, but the underlying molecular mechanis...
