@michard-celine.bsky.socialI am deeply honoured to be an ERC Starting Grant 2026 Awardee! 🎉 My project UBACT will investigate new ways host cells defend themselves against infection 🔬. I can't wait to start my lab at University of Geneva. What an adventure ahead! @erc.europa.eu #ERCStG www.unige.ch/medecine/new...
Show PostMy first post here - so let‘s start with a bang! Last week the major part of my MD-PhD work at the @biomedizin.unibas.ch was published @emboreports.org. I want to thank my supervisors and amazing collaborators for their efforts and contributions to this story. So let‘s talk about what we found!
Show PostThis signaling axis isn't unique to T cells. It also drives movement in other immune cells and in the social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum - meaning we've uncovered an conserved mechanism for how cells move. I was super lucky to work with @michard-celine.bsky.social on the Dicty part of the story.
Show PostThe first peer-reviewed paper from my lab! We found that Shigella forms invasive aggregates via a T3SS-dependent mechanism in the presence of a colonic bile acid, lithocholic acid. Very excited to follow up on these findings... #Shigella #T3SS #BileAcids journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/...
Show PostCongratulations to Dr. @guallar-garrido.bsky.social on her new lecturer position at the Autonomous University of Barcelona! She will keep working on mycobacteria using amoeba host model. Best of luck on this exciting new chapter! 👏🔬✨
