Biography

Thomas Nyström is a Professor at the University of Gothenburg, where he conducts research focusing on protein quality control, aging, and cellular stress responses, particularly in the context of yeast models. His work explores mechanisms of proteostasis, including the roles of chaperones and proteases in maintaining protein homeostasis and dealing with misfolded proteins. He has published extensively in high-impact journals such as Nature Communications and Cell Reports, contributing to the understanding of how cellular environments influence protein behavior and impacts on organismal aging. Nyström's research also investigates the intersection of cellular stress and metabolic regulation and how these pathways can inform therapeutic strategies for age-related diseases.
