[Visio] Discover Professor Noboru Mizushima’s Seminar on Intracellular Degradation and Quality Control by Autophagy

Professor Noboru Mizushima (MD, PhD) will deliver a lecture at IRCM (Institut de Recherche en Cancérologie de Montpellier) on Thursday, May 2nd at 2 p.m. CFATG is proud to partner with this seminar and is excited to offer a live broadcast via video conference to all its members. Further details on how to participate in this video conference will be communicated later. However, we encourage you to mark this date in your calendars now. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to learn more about autophagy and the recent advancements in this fascinating field.

Professor Mizushima, whose research has been cited more than 100,000 times, is internationally recognized for his remarkable work on mammalian autophagy. He has discovered numerous molecular targets and signaling pathways that control autophagy, thereby paving the way for potential therapeutic interventions in diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and metabolic syndromes. Professor Mizushima has also established various autophagy-related mouse models (systemic and tissue-specific autophagy-deficient mice), thus opening new perspectives for research and treatment of many diseases.
