PhD Club: Searching for Reliable Senescence Markers in Muscle by Matthew Lacey

Dear colleagues,
I would like to invite you to the lecture "Searching for Reliable Senescence Markers in Muscle" presented by Matthew Lacey. The workshop will be on Wednesday October 14, 2026 at 9AM in the room 1.09 at IMTM.

Abstract
In the presentation I cover the ongoing efforts to identify a reliable biomarker for cellular senescence in muscle tissues. Canonical senescence biomarkers are not entirely reliable in this context, and therefore different biomarkers are needed to identify senescent cells. A possible senescence biomarker has been identified in the form of uPAR.
