Abstract: ABSTRACT Caroline Mauvezin is a group leader at the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Barcelona, Spain. She completed her doctoral work with Antonio Zorzano at the Institute for Research in Biomedicine (IRB) in Barcelona, studying the role of the transcriptional cofactor TP53INP2/DOR in autophagy. She subsequently moved to Thomas Neufeld's lab at the University of Minnesota, where she investigated the role of proton pump V-ATPase in autophagosome–lysosome fusion events. After moving back to Spain to the Bellvitge Biomedical Research Institute (IDIBELL) for a postdoc under the supervision of Albert Tauler, Caroline established her independent research group in 2021 at the Department of Biomedical Sciences in the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Barcelona. Her lab studies the role of autophagy and lysosomes in cell cycle progression and in the prevention of chromosomal instability. We spoke with Caroline over Zoom to learn more about her career path, her approach to mentoring and how cooking inspired her passion for experimenting.
