We are proud to announce that Alexia KINOO has been awarded the SFH Prize 2026 for her outstanding work entitled: “ZEB1 drives terminal erythroid maturation by controlling the GATA2-KLF1 regulatory switch”
This project was developed in Eric Soler's team at the Institute of Molecular Genetics of Montpellier (IGMM)/Montpellier University (UM), and was part of a collaboration with the teams of Sandrina Kinet and Naomi Taylor (IGMM/UM), and Olivier Hermine and Thiago Trovati Maciel (IMAGINE/Paris Cité University).
These findings highlight a key role for ZEB1 in the fine regulation of terminal erythropoiesis, offering new insights into the molecular mechanisms governing erythroid differentiation.
👏 Congratulations to Alexia on this well-deserved recognition!
