Happy to share our last article in Nature Communications We determined the #CryoEM structure of full-length hnRNPDL-2 fibrils, a human functional #amyloid associated with a rare muscular dystrophy, with Stefano Ricagno & M. Bolognesi Key findings below (1/5) nature.com/articles/s4146…

Amazing!!! Aberrant phase separation and nucleolar dysfunction in rare genetic diseases | Nature nature.com/articles/s4158…

Excited to share our last work in bioRxiv, with RadfordLab, Antoine loquet, Jan Skov Pedersen, @daniel_otzen, JM Valpuesta, A Muga…   A bit closer to understand how #oligomers are!   A thread for all the #αsynuclein and oligomer enthusiasts! (1/7) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Today is a very special day! Jaime Santos has defended his PhD thesis! Congrats Dr. Santos! We are all super proud of you! We had the best possible committee! with B. Bukau Bukau Lab , S. Longhi LONGHI Sonia and A. Peralvarez. alex peralvarez Many thanks for the great discussion!!!

It was a pleasure to take part at the last PhasAGE school organized with ML4NGP . Speakers and students contributed to a valuable experience in terms of learning and networking. Nice to see again Porto and visit for the first time the i3S-Instituto de Investigação e Inovação em Saúde

More on Prion and Prionlike Diseases as we approach the end of the day. #PrionBCN23

What a nice group of colleagues at #PrionBCN23 !!!!

Today is a very special day! Francisca Garcia Pinheiro has defended her PhD thesis! Congrats Dr. Pinheiro! We are all super proud of you! We had the best possible committee! with Fabrizio Chiti, Diego Muñoz-Torrero & Maria Rosario Fernandez. Many thanks for the great discussion!!!

What a beautiful book Francisca Garcia Pinheiro gave us yesterday! It has been a privilege to have you in the lab these years Dr. Pinheiro!

🔥🔥 Not one, but TWO Extraordinary PhD Awards!!! From Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona to PhDs defended in our group (2020-21) Extremely proud of Jordi Pujols & Valentín Iglesias Mas, PhD !!!! Here two of the papers that resulted from their thesis: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30249646/ pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31049593/

#Tau is a large disordered #protein whose #aggregation is connected with #Alzheimer , but small molecules can modulate this reaction. More info in our new Perspective by Samuel Peña Díaz & zoemanglano journals.lww.com/nrronline/full…

I wish some cool anti-aggregation molecule like synuclean will come out from this incredible group 🙌

Happy that they use our SynuClean-D (SC-D) #synuclein #aggregation inhibitor as the model molecule to validate the assay! More info on this small compound : pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Exciting research at the poster session at #AUSBI24. Presenting Francisca Pinheiro who is working on designing peptide drugs targeting synapses ⁦DANDRITE⁩ ⁦PROMEMO - Center for Proteins in Memory⁩

More exciting science at #AUSBI from Samuel Peña Díaz iNANO - Interdisciplinary Nanoscience Center harnessing the power of bacterial amyloids as catalysts for plastic degradation: poster 21, check it out!!#AUSBI24

🧬 New article of the lab by ⁦Samuel Peña Díaz⁩!

Pretty happy for being able to share one of my latest works at Ventura's Lab before heading to a new postdoc adventure at iNANO - Interdisciplinary Nanoscience Center

This week we are at the Functional Amyloid Meeting at DESY (Deutsch) Hamburg. Old friends and great talks!!! Thanks Meytal Landau #FFFatDESY2025 Institut de Biotecnologia i de Biomedicina UAB Institut d'Investigació i Innovació Parc Taulí

🧵Cuando trabajas años en un proyecto científico… y publican el paper sin ti. 1️⃣ Después de años en un grupo de investigación, acabo de descubrir que han publicado un paper con datos en los que trabajé directamente. Mi nombre no aparece. En ningún sitio.
