| Summary: | First Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Disease Models & Mechanisms, helping early-career researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Sandra Muñoz-Braceras is first author on ‘
VPS13A, a closely associated mitochondrial protein, is required for efficient lysosomal degradation’, published in DMM. Sandra conducted the research described in this article while a postdoctoral fellow in Ricardo Escalante's lab at Instituto de Investigaciones Biomédicas Alberto Sols, CSIC/UAM, Madrid, Spain. She is now a postdoctoral fellow in the lab of Rosa Puertollano at the Cell Biology and Physiology Center, National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, USA, investigating lysosome contribution to the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. |
