Research Interests: mechanism of autophagy; aggrephagy; autophagy-infection interaction; unconventional functions iof the ATG proteins.

Research Interests: My group studies the molecular mechanisms of autophagy and CASM, with a particular focus on how ATG8-specific E3-like complexes are targeted to damaged or remodeling intracellular membrane compartments. A second major theme is defining the downstream consequences of CASM and how these outputs influence endolysosomal homeostasis. To address these questions, we develop complementary in cellulo and in vitro approaches to dissect these pathways at molecular resolution.
