Balancing these two pathways is crucial for cell survival. However\, the complex characteristics of these pathways and the transient nature of the components have limited our knowledge of the syst em. To overcome these obstacles\, I will discuss the application of chemic al biology approaches\, complemented by multidisciplinary methodologies\, to find novel players regulating the crosstalk and cooperation between aut ophagy and endocytosis. Furthermore\, I will discuss how these findings ca n be used to improve plant performance under biotic and abiotic stresses. \n\nABOUT THE SPEAKER\n\nDr. Rodriguez-Furlan studied molecular biology wi th an agriculture research scholarship at the Universidad Nacional San Lui s (Argentina). She earned her Ph.D. in Biotechnology at the Universidad An dres-Bello (Chile) studying the endomembrane trafficking of cell wall comp onents. As a post-doc\, at the Universidad de Chile and later at the Unive rsity of California\, Riverside (USA)\, she applied chemical biology appro aches to further investigate membrane trafficking. Her research outlook fo cuses on improving plant fitness to cope with changing environmental condi tions.\n DTSTART:20200130T150000Z DTEND:20200130T150000Z LOCATION:R4-047\, Raymond Building\, CA\, QC\, St Anne de Bellevue\, H9X 3V 9\, 21111 Lakeshore Road SUMMARY:Stress management: Using chemical biology to uncover coordination a nd crosstalk between endocytic and autophagic degradation URL:/macdonald/channels/event/stress-management-using- chemical-biology-uncover-coordination-and-crosstalk-between-endocytic-and- 313267 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
