AU·SIS: Autophagy & autosis

📺 Esta noche, a las 22:30 y en TPA (canal autonómico del Principado de Asturias), se estrena «Tamos Guapxs», un programa de divulgación científica en el que he tenido el grandísimo honor de participar en varios de sus episodios.

Cada martes, un tema nuevo. ¡No os lo perdáis! 😃

Gracias a quienes lo hacéis posible.
A quienes colaboráis.
A quienes acudíds.
A quienes participáis.

Gracias por otra maravillosa noche de divulgación.

✨Nueva edición de la «Noche Europea de los Investigadores e Investigadoras» de @uodivulga.bsky.social (@universidadoviedo.bsky.social)

🎲Estaremos en Gijón (18:00 - 22:00), donde podréis jugar a «La Oca Científica» del @iuopa.bsky.social y aprender sobre la investigación en cáncer. ¡Animaos! 😃

💪 We are back!

🥼 And it is our pleasure to welcome another student from the Bachelor's Degree in Biotechnology: Mariana Álvarez Cuetos, an undergraduate who is full of curiosity and enthusiasm.

Welcome! 😃

Welcome! 😃

And kudos to Alejandra Piedra Macías for her Master's Thesis, which has launched our search for autotic markers.

She will now remain in AU·SIS, where she will continue this project during her PhD! 🥳

Congratulations to both of you! 😀

Once again, it is time to congratulate the students who have successfully completed their Bachelor's and Master's Theses with us!

We applaud Miguel Rodríguez Monjardín, who was brave enough to conduct a conceptual study on autosis, proposing new hypotheses for his Bachelor’s Thesis.

Well done! 👏

🥼 We continue to stay busy in July!

This month, Pablo Jiménez, another student from the Bachelor's Degree in Biotechnology, has also joined our group. He is becoming familiar with our projects in preparation for working on his dissertation in the upcoming academic year.

Welcome!

Aquí tenéis el divertido pero divulgativo #HiloTesis de @andres-autofagia.bsky.social, investigador predoctoral de nuestro grupo.

¡Bienvenidas/os al mundo de la autofagia! 🙂

(¡Gran trabajo, Andrés! 👏)

🥼 In June we are joined by Paula (left), who is studying for a Bachelor's Degree in Medicine, and Víctor (right), pursuing a Bachelor's Degree in Biotechnology. They will be learning basic molecular biology techniques, and we truly appreciate their curiosity!

Welcome! 🙂

☀️ Summer is coming!

👩‍🔬👨‍🔬 And with it comes the opportunity to welcome new undergraduate students seeking to complete their summer academic placements with us while gaining firsthand experience in daily research activities.

📣 ¡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!

Last picture of Dr. Larafa (second from the left) during her short-stay with AU·SIS research group, as she returns with María (first from the left) to Germany.

The first milestone of our collaboration with Dr. Vega-Rubín-de-Celis's lab has been completed!

Time has flown by, as Dr. Larafa 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 are excited to finally share our collaboration with our dear friend Tania, now published in International Journal of Cancer!

Our goal was to provide a helpful entry point for readers interested in the connection between autophagy, exosomes, and cancer.

📢 Nuestra investigadora predoctoral María Guerra Andrés (
@ausisgroup.bsky.social) 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!

Dr. Larafa is a postdoc at Dr. Vega-Rubín-de-Celis's lab (Essen). Thanks to our collaboration, she will be with us for three months.

Meanwhile, Alejandra is an exceptional graduate student who has joined our group for her Master's Thesis and, afterwards, her PhD!

The AU·SIS family keeps growing! 🙌

#InternationalDayOfWomenAndGirlsInScience #11F

A day to celebrate. 🙂

And, also, a day to introduce you to Safa (left) and Alejandra (right)!

(You already know María 😜)

🥳🥳🥳🥳

And we are sharing more exciting news soon!

🌐 Today, #WorldCancerDay, @alvfdezfdez-phd.bsky.social and María have collaborated with @universidadoviedo.bsky.social 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.

In our way to Germany!

Long day ahead, travelling from Asturias to Essen. There, we will meet with our colleague and friend Dr. Silvia Vega-Rubín-de-Celis and her "Autophagy and cancer" group as we officially start an exciting new collaborative project.

More details soon!

Hi there! Can we join? 🙂
We are an emerging group working in autosis. 😃
