Natalia Szulc @lumirare.com · 06/10/2025Our new preprint is out! We show that the nucleolus can dynamically switch into a proteostasis hub when needed 🔬 010
Natalia Szulc @lumirare.com · 03/10/2025Huge thanks to the Polonium Foundation team for the kind invitation and stellar organization! Equally grateful to the EMBO Young Scientists’ Forum organizers for the warm welcome, incredible experience and... probably the most memorable rock ’n’ roll conference dinner ever! 🎸 000
Natalia Szulc @lumirare.com · 03/10/2025🍁 September flew by - two conferences, two cities, and lots of inspiration. I shared my research at Polonium Foundation’s “Science: Polish Perspectives” in Cambridge 🇬🇧, then presented a poster on our DEGRONOPEDIA at the #EYSF2025 in Vilnius 🇱🇹. Now to decide what to implement next in its 2.0 ver 😊 100
Natalia Szulc @lumirare.com · 08/07/2025Excited to share DEGRADATOR — the first computer game 🎮 about protein degradation and PROTAC drugs — at #FEBS2025! Stop by my poster if you’re around — let’s chat science and gameplay. #FEBSCongress2025 030
Natalia Szulc @lumirare.com · 03/07/2025Proud that our DEGRONOPEDIA tool could contribute to this! 🎉 110
Natalia Szulc @lumirare.com · 10/01/2025Beyond excited that DEGRADATOR—our computer game delving into protein degradation and PROTCAs—has now been published! 🎉🥳 Give it a try here: degradator-game.com 🎮degradator-game.comDEGRADATOR - a protein degradation gameDiscover the secrets of protein degradation in cells with an addictive educational computer game that combines science with fun! 061
