Anne-Claire did her PhD in the lab of Marie-Odile Fauvarque (Université Grenoble-Alpes – France). Her work focused on the importance of ubiquitination in immune signaling and autophagy, with a specific interest in deubiquitinating enzymes. In 2014, she joined Ioannis Nezis at the University of Warwick – UK, for a postdoc aiming at deciphering the molecular mechanisms of selective autophagy in Drosophila. Since 2020, she joined the group of Ivan Dikic and the Frankfurt Cancer Institute as a research assistant to work on the molecular mechanisms of tumor pathogenesis and the development of targeted therapies.
