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

NHCs-catalyzed enantioselective synthesis of biaryl axially chiral imides
  • The synthesis of biaryl axially chiral amides and their derivatives—compounds that have shown promise as additives or catalysts in asymmetric catalysis—has traditionally relied on transition-metal catalysts. Herein, we report an NHC-catalyzed organocatalytic

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 | EMBL Symposium-Mechanobiology across the tree of life
Cells and tissues actively adjust physical and chemical properties to shape, interact with their environment, and maintain function. Understanding these mechanisms requires integrating biology, physics, and engineering, and comparing systems across evolution.
This symposium gathers diverse researchers to advance knowledge of cell walls, cytoskeletons, and membranes through cutting-edge imaging, biophysical tools, and computational methods. Emphasising early-career scientists, it aims to foster collaboration and deepen insight into mechanobiology from molecules to organisms.
Artificial Photosynthetic Systems at International Conference on Porphyrins & Phthalocyanines (ICPP 14)
This conference focuses on frontier research on functional materials such as porphyrins and phthalocyanines in artificial photosynthetic systems, aiming to explore their innovative applications in solar energy conversion, photocatalysis, energy storage, and sustainable chemistry. The conference brings together researchers, industry experts, and young scholars from around the world to engage in in-depth discussions on topics including the design of artificial photosynthetic systems, regulation of photoelectric properties, and the development of related devices, with the goal of promoting international collaboration, sharing the latest research advances, and driving innovation in this field.
4th Ubiquitin Function in Health & Disease Conference
This conference shifts the spotlight from structural details to biological function. Together, we shall explore how the ubiquitin system orchestrates signal transduction under physiological conditions, what happens when this regulation breaks down and how this knowledge can be harnessed to develop a new generation of exquisitely specific and highly effective medicines. From cancer and chronic inflammation to autoimmune and neurodegenerative diseases, the therapeutic potential of targeting the ubiquitin system is near endless. We envision this meeting as the premier forum for showcasing the most innovative and translational research in ubiquitin biology. It will serve as a catalyst for discussions on emerging therapeutic strategies and as a hub for collaboration across academia and industry.
