AU•SIS: Autophagy & Autosis
@AUSISgroup
Emerging research group at @UniOvi_info • Expanding our knowledge on autophagy and autosis in health and disease • @SEFAGIA_ · Tweets by @AlvFdezFdez_PhD
Time to launch the Twitter account of the AU·SIS research group! We are focused on expanding our knowledge on #autophagy and, specifically, autosis (a unique type of autophagic cell death dependent on the Na+,K+-ATPase pump) in life & disease. So yes, we love autophagosomes! ⭕️

📣 ¡Arranca #Pint25ES! 📰 Esta noche estaré en el Mala Noche, a las 19 h, para hablar del cáncer, y de cómo se informa sobre él en los medios de comunicación. ¿Son ciertos los titulares que nos llegan? ¡Nos vemos! #Pint25OVD
The 1st milestone of our collaboration with @vega_rubin's lab has been completed! Time has flown by, and @SafaLarafa finished her stay with us last week. She has now returned to Germany, along with our own María, to continue our collaboration there. Great initial steps. 🙂
We welcome María from the @AUSISgroup group for her 3-month stay with us, and welcome back @SafaLarafa from her stay with @AlvFdezFdez_PhD group. Amazing new research is underway thanks to funds from DFG, @EUErasmusPlus and @DKTK_ @WAutophagy @SEFAGIA_ @unidue @UniklinikEssen
We are excited to finally share our collaboration with our dear friend @taniuskina, now published at @IntJCanc! Our goal was to provide a helpful entry point for readers interested in the connection between autophagy, exosomes, and cancer. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ij…
📢 Nuestra investigadora predoctoral María Guerra Andrés (@AUSISgroup) participará esta tarde en el «Minicongreso de Estudiantes del Programa de Doctorado en Biomedicina y Oncología Molecular» del @IUOPA. 👏 ¡Una oportunidad fantástica para compartir ciencia y proyectos!
🔬 ¿Quieres saber en qué andan nuestros estudiantes de doctorado? No te puedes perder el Minicongreso del IUOPA del próximo viernes. 📅 Fecha: 28 de febrero ⏰ Hora: 16:00 h 📍 Lugar: Hall del edificio de Servicios Científico-Técnicos (Severo Ochoa, Campus del Cristo).
🥳🥳🥳🥳 And we are sharing more exciting news soon!
As you all know (and suffer), securing funding for our research is incredibly challenging. That's why I am more than thrilled to share that my project on autosis will be funded by @AgEInves and @CienciaGob for the next two years. Exciting times are ahead for our @AUSISgroup! 🙂
🌐 Today, #WorldCancerDay, @AlvFdezFdez_PhD and María have collaborated with @UOdivulga (@uniovi_info) and @IUOPA in several outreach activities to explain cancer research to the public. 🔬 Cancer is one of our main research lines, and we remain committed to fight this disease.
🌐 Desde el @IUOPA nos volcamos mañana en el #DíaMundialContraElCáncer. Conferencias (la mía será en el IES El Batán, de Mieres), actividades en @uniovi_info, mesa redonda en Gijón (gracias a @Culturagijon),… ¡Gracias a @UOdivulga y @ContraCancerAST por hacerlo posible!
In our way to Germany! Long day ahead, travelling from Asturias to Essen (@UniklinikEssen). There, we will meet with @vega_rubin and her "Autophagy and cancer" group as we officially start an exciting new collaborative project. More details soon!
📢 Today is #EuropeanResearchersNight! 👥 We are delighted to participate again at @uniovi_info (@UOdivulga), bringing science to the public. 🧬This year, we have a card game to explain DNA, cancer, and more! 🇪🇺 Hope you enjoy all the activities taking place across Europe!
🔹 La carta ganadora contra el cáncer - El ADN @AlvFdezFdez_PhD @droiva @AUSISGroup @IUOPA
📄 We have just submitted our first manuscript! 🤝 It will be a collaborative review with our colleague and friend @taniuskina. 🥳 Getting things started, more to come very soon!
⭕ Already in our way back to Asturias from an amazing @Autofagia_org meeting. A familiar gathering full of #autophagy but also good food. Innovation but History too. And for sure olive oil and paprika! We are already waiting for next #SEFAGIA. 2025 cannot come soon enough!

⭕📊 The poster is ready, and the slides for the talk are being given the final touches! SEFAGIA is coming… #SEFAGIA2024 #Autophagy
Sefagia2024 is coming¡¡¡¡
⭕️👥 We are officially in! We are glad to confirm that we will participate in next @Autofagia_org meeting with an oral communication (by @AlvFdezFdez_PhD) and a poster (by María Guerra) 👏 See you all there! 😃

Registration is now open for the upcoming SEFAGIA (Spanish Society of Autophagy) conference in Jarandilla de la Vera (Extremadura, Spain) from April 3 to 5, 2024. Comprehensive information (to be updated) is available at: orexco.congressus.es/sefagia24/index" Autofagia.org
