✨Brilliant thesis dissertation by Andrés Gámez, codirected by Dr. Alex Vaquero (@vaquerolab) and Dr. Berta Vázquez (@Bertava4) yesterday at the Auditorium!! "The role of sirtuins in haematopoiesis and leukaemia" Proud to see our young researchers moving up in their career 💪

Another PhD in the @CarrerasIJC neighborhood! Fantastic experience yesterday in the PhD defense of Andrés Gámez, a highly talented student from our group, on the role of SIRT7 in B-cell differentiation through PAX5. Many thanks to the PhD committee. Sirtuins rule! 🦾🦾🦾

En #LungCancerWorldDay hay que reivindicar la investigación básica y traslacional. Los descubrimientos de los últimos 20 años han sido claves en el desarrollo de terapias en #cancerpulmon. El futuro es esperanzador! @SOSCLC_AECC @ContraCancerEs @ASEICAnews
🚨Avui és el #LungCancerWorldDay i us volem explicar quin enfoc pren el nostre laboratori de Genètica del Càncer, dirigit per la Dra. Montse Sánchez-Céspedes (@CespedesMontse) En la lluita contra el càncer, som #imparables!

I am happy to share that @molecular_guy paper is online! rdcu.be/dZwAN We can imagine REST and SIRT6 as a rowing team. In healthy brains, they work together, moving forward and protecting brain function.

Nuclear expansion and chromatin structure remodeling in mouse aging neurons academic.oup.com/narmolmed/a… Our DNA is typically organized within the cell nucleus like highways connected by bridges and loops, facilitating the use of the genetic information encoded within.

Check out our new article! We have found that SIRT7 and p53 co-regulate gene expression programs related to extracellular matrix and lineage specification, with important implications for early embryogenesis and cancer dissemination.#sirtuins #genomeintegrity @FrontCellDevBio
Happy to share a new collaborative work from the @vaquerolab @CarrerasIJC in @FrontCellDevBio on SIRT7/p53 interplay in embryonic development and tumorigenesis led by B. Vazquez @Bertava4 and L. Serrano @CUNY @RutgersU . Thanks to all collaborators!! frontiersin.org/articles/10.…

New preprint from the lab! Here we describe that the the widely used Ucp1-CreEvdr transgene unfortunately elicits complex developmental and metabolic phenotypes. @CincyChildrens biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… This work was driven by @ManasiHalurkar (now a PhD student at Purdue)

Vine a la Bici-Festa-Acció del dissabte 21‼️ ❌NO permetrem q es faci marxa enrere al carril bici de Via Augusta 👉L'#EmergènciaClimàtica ens urgeix a ampliar la xarxa i afavorir la mobilitat activa en detriment del vehicle privat. #LaBiciPrioritatEstratègica #AmbBiciMillor

En Barcelona quieren quitar este carril bici porque no es "sano". Está la ciudad llena de tubos de escape y les preocupa la salud de los únicos que pueden solucionar el problema. Mentira, lo que les preocupa es que algún conductor se enfade.
Una quarantena de pediatres circulen pel nou carril bici de la Via Augusta per reivindicar entorns saludables al districte més dens d’Europa en centres educatius 🎥 @danixiula Més informació diarieljardi.cat/una-quarant…
