Fundamental mechanism of ferroptosis: Three unanswered questions
  • Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death (RCD) driven by lipid peroxidation, has been extensively studied since its conceptualization in 2012 and has been suggested as a therapeutic target in many cancers and degenerative diseases. However,

The coming decade in ferroptosis research: Five riddles
  • Ferroptosis is, in many ways, the odd one out among cell death modalities. It does not, at least as far as we know, require an activating signal. Instead, it represents a default cellular fate that is continuously repressed by a multilayered network of surveillance

Lipoprotein(a) in cardiovascular disease with focus on peripheral arterial disease, major adverse limb events, abdominal aortic aneurysms and interaction with low-grade inflammation
  • Lipoprotein(a) is an established risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), with strong evidence of causality from genetic and epidemiological studies. This recognition has led to the development of multiple potent lipoprotein(a)-lowering

A thymus-centric perspective on immune ageing: Mechanisms, cross-species insights, and therapeutic directions
  • Immunosenescence is a biological process accompanying ageing, characterized by increased susceptibility to infections, reduced vaccine efficacy, and the development of chronic low-grade inflammation. Although immunosenescence is systemic, the relative

Enantioselective aza-Mislow-Evans rearrangement through S-allenylation of sulfenamides with alkynyl carbenes
  • Sulfonylhydrazones are valuable carbene precursors in asymmetric synthesis; however, their use typically generates sulfinic acid, which is inevitably discarded as stoichiometric waste. In this work, the carbene chemistry and sulfur chemistry are integrated

High-performance electrocaloric cooling devices for efficient and compact solid-state refrigeration
  • The electrocaloric (EC) effect represents the changes of polarization entropy and/or temperature of dielectrics when an external electric field is applied and removed. An efficient EC effect relies on a highly reversible conversion between electrical energy

Conference Collaborations

EMBO Workshop-Brain (epi)genome
The brain’s remarkable cellular diversity — encompassing hundreds of distinct neuronal and glial cell types — emerges from a single genome through sophisticated regulatory mechanisms.
This EMBO Workshop unites experts in genomics, neuroscience, and epigenetics to explore how gene regulation and chromatin architecture generate neural diversity and shape brain function. Leveraging advances in single-cell, spatial, and 3D genomics, it will address mechanisms underlying neuronal identity, connectivity, plasticity, and disease.
By integrating insights from human and model systems, the meeting aims to accelerate discovery and strengthen the neurogenomics community.
EMBO | EMBL Symposium-Sex differences in health and disease
This symposium examines how genetics, hormones, and environment drive sex differences in physiology, immunity, ageing, and disease. It will highlight mechanisms underlying distinct phenotypes and variable susceptibility or treatment responses in metabolic, infectious, cancer, cardiovascular, and neurological conditions. Bringing together multidisciplinary experts and advanced model systems, the meeting aims to advance understanding of sex-based biology to improve health outcomes.
Mitochondria & Cell Fate Transitions: From Stemness to Senescence Conference
This conference will explore how mitochondria govern key transitions in cell fate - from quiescence to activation, differentiation, plasticity, and senescence. Recent advances show that mitochondrial dynamics, ultrastructure, and metabolite signaling are tightly linked to decisions that define tissue homeostasis, regeneration, immune responses, and aging. These insights have far-reaching implications for understanding stem cell biology, cancer development, and degenerative disease. The meeting aims to bring together a multidisciplinary audience of stem cell biologists, mitochondrial researchers, immunologists, cancer biologists, neuroscientists and aging experts to explore mitochondria as master regulators of cell identity. Key sessions will cover mitochondrial influence on stemness and differentiation, the role of mitochondrial signaling in cell fate, mechanisms of mitophagy and inner mitochondrial membrane remodeling during fate transitions, and how mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to cell senescence and disease.
