معرفی
Ivana Gasic is an Assistant Professor at the University of Geneva in the Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology. She leads the ProMiCe Lab, focusing on proteostasis and microtubule cytoskeleton dynamics. Her research challenges the central dogma of unidirectional gene expression regulation, particularly in tubulin protein-mRNA feedback mechanisms.
- Role: Assistant Professor
- Institution: University of Geneva
- Department: Molecular and Cellular Biology
- Lab: ProMiCe Lab
Her research explores how tubulin protein quantity impacts mRNA stability through specificity factors, employing biochemical, structural, and fluorescent imaging approaches. Key areas include posttranscriptional control, microtubule homeostasis, and cellular adaptation to stress cues.
Recent publications span topics like tubulin autoregulation, TTC5 interactions, and microtubule dynamics. Her work bridges molecular mechanisms with broader implications in cell viability and multicellular organization.
- Scientific Recognition: SNSF Assistant Professor grant
Gasic mentors doctoral candidates (e.g., Ana Almeida, Alina Batiuk) and collaborates with researchers including Maxim Assaf and Zahra Jouini. Her lab integrates advanced techniques like mass spectrometry and live-cell imaging to dissect tubulin biology.
