The Autophagy, Inflammation, Metabolism Center of Biomedical Research Excellence (AIM COBRE) is in the process of building co-operativity within the Southwest Region. We can provide access to laboratory resources through a number of mechanisms to the AIM CoBRE Core (Cores | Autophagy, Inflammation and Metabolism Center of Biomedical Research Excellence) which include high content analysis and imaging along with cellular metabolic assays.

Stay tuned for more information!

The AIM Center is in the process of forming a Council of International Rising Stars (COIRS) for junior investigator, comprised of promising junior investigators in the scientific areas of Autophagy, Inflammation and Metabolism. The intent is to engage international rising stars in AIM Center activities and provide networking for international talent at the level of Assistant Professor or Junior Group Leader! Please stay tuned for more information!

Please send nominations or self-nominations to vderetic@salud.unm.edu for consideration.

The mitochondrial sodium-calcium exchanger, NCLX, is a critical route of mCa2+ efflux in excitable tissues, such as the heart and brain, and animal models support NCLX as a promising therapeutic target to limit pathogenic mCa2+ overload. Dr. Elrod’s group from Temple University uncovered a novel...
