Scientist by day, defender of lost causes by night. Especially the right to not spend our lives filling online forms. Cell death, Cancer metabolism, Metabolic stress, ISR/UPR, mesothelioma and lung cancer
Interesting :-D

Thanks Nature Cancer for the chance to reflect on some factors that led me to study cancer metabolism. For the trainees and other young scientists: the critical events that shape your career might not be obvious while they are happening. Keep an open mind and trust your instincts.

Interesting articles on cancer metabolism - and ocassionally, just metabolism- published last month

Interested in cell death?
Here's a few interesting papers published last month

“84% believe climate change is caused by human activity”
Well… the 16% left are very loud!

Take a look at the report so far, it has been active for almost 2 years. Let us know if you are interested or have any questions biomed.news/bims-inflin

Awch! So many weak/weird results about metabolism and funny forms of cell death published in high impact journals … probably wrong

Just learned that Frank Stahl (of the Meselson and Stahl DNA replication experiment ("the most beautiful experiment in biology") died at the beginning of April, to no fanfare. Here's a lovely video of them reminiscing: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-tn...

“Coining a new term for a subtype of cell death that clearly fits into an existing category is unwarranted and contributes to creating a scientific tower of Babel where it becomes progressively difficult to know what we are all talking about.”

Esteban Ballestar’s lab studied LPS-driven activation under hypoxia here. They’re more inflammatory, contrary to what was thought

Many cool articles in the Metabolist this month.

PEER REVIEW by Mole
... So when the power falls to us, we (and by ‘we’ I mean ‘some of us’) unleash our pent up frustrations. This is not idle speculation, this explanation for what seems to be widespread grumpiness in the peer review process. journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...

@crismunozp.bsky.social it was awesome to work with you and Mabel on that.. really enjoyed it and I love the result...
Sometimes we should really listen to the reviewers :o)))) they have great questions (and ideas) ---- doi.org/10.1111/febs...
A reviewer asked: but why is IRE1 activated when glucose is low?
A committee member for Mabel Cruz's PhD asked: why is the UPR activated upon glucose deprivation?
So we wrote a review about it.
Here it is!

don't notify grant rejections on Friday afternoon!
American friends:
you'll find that a lot of Governments in Europe are launching programs to "attract American talent" with huge press fanfare.
Don't fall for it. Ask the locals. Do your research. There is no core funding in most of Europe, and institutional grant calls are sometimes random.
This one hurts a lot. Richard is a great scientist. His elegant work inspired me to get into mitochondrial biology and he went out of his way to help me establish myself in the field. So sad for our whole community.
