I’m happy to announce that I’ve been awarded #msca postdoctoral fellowships for #NeuroFerro project to tackle #ferroptosis with Koen Augustyns and Tom Vanden Berghe UAntwerpen Curious about our research👇 blog.uantwerpen.be/fbd/meet-our-r…

Interested to know a bit more about our research and my amazing coworker Greta Klejborowska ? Do not hesitate to read her article 😀

👋Our new publication on RIPK-1 inhibitor is out ! Take a look if you want to see how small pharmacomodulations allowed us to get more affinity for RIPK1 than PERK. #Celldeath #necroptosis cc Greta Klejborowska Koen Augustyns

CONGRATULATIONS, Davide! The Ph.D. thesis "Development of Scalable Synthesis for Selected #SerineProtease uPA Inhibitors” was supervised by Kirill Shubin and Prof. Aigars Jirgensons at Latvian Institute of Organic Synthesis and RTU . Check it out! 👉bit.ly/3MJ6typ #H2020 #InvestEUresearch


I'm extremely happy to announce I have been awarded a #MSCA postdoctoral fellowship for my project DPP9-TACDrug. Exciting times starting now thanks to Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, Dr. Pieter Van Der Veken and UAntwerpen!

Let's start this new edition of #pint23 in Antwerpen ! First talk with Greta Klejborowska Working on neurodegenerative disorders Cc thanks VIB UAntwerpen Dr. Beer Pint of Science BE


Super nice talk of Greta Klejborowska on future ferroptosis efforts in neurodegenerative diseases! Best combo alive, I would say as a Belgian… beer and science 😉

#CONGRATULATIONS on a successful PhD thesis defense, Alba Ramos Llorca! Thesis "Design, synthesis and evaluation of novel activity-based probes and inhibitors for trypsin-like serine proteases", supervised by Prof. Koen Augustyns and Prof. Pieter Van Der Veken at UAntwerpen & UAMC Antwerp.



The UAMC Antwerp is currently attending the EFMC-ASMC congress in Zagreb, Croatia to meet Medchem/chembio scientists from all over Europe. #EFMCASMC23


Today we have the pleasure to hold a Symposium on #ferroptosis at the UAntwerpen UAMC Antwerp. It was really inspiring to listen to The Conrad Lab, Tom Vanden Berghe and Raphaël Frédérick. Thank you for presenting the advances in the field and the great discussion that followed.


And now it's time for Camilla Scarpellini to defend the hard work she's done during her phD on the design of new ferroptosis and necroptosis inhibitors. 👏👏👏👏 #ferroptoteam UAMC Antwerp


#CONGRATULATIONS to Camilla Scarpellini for her successful PhD defense! “Identification of novel #ferroptosis and #necroptosis inhibitors - Optimising the therapeutic potential by improving pharmacokinetic”. Supervisors: Koen Augustyns and Hans De Winter UAntwerpen UAMC Antwerp


🌟Our new Review on ferroptosis inhibitors is out in Trends in Pharmacological Sciences !🌟 Want to know more about #ferroptosis inhibition ? What are the recent advances ? sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Congrats Camilla Scarpellini Greta Klejborowska Behrouz Hassannia Koen Augustyns Tom Vanden Berghe UAMC Antwerp
