Absolutely thrilled to announce that we have been awarded funding from @Kreftforeningen to continue our work on bladder tumor biology! Many plans and experiments are now possible and we are delighted to continue our work on the research project Mapping the…
Luiza will give a talk about new developments in the lab and work on bladders at the next CCBIO Seminar (11th of December 2025, 14:30).
by Fatemeh Rahmatabadi: This week’s journal club focuses on a study from Cancer Chemother. Pharmacol. (2017) promoting Cantrixil as a promising anti-cancer agent targeting resilient cancer-stem–cell populations.
This study proposes hiPSCs derived SC-islet differentiation as model to study development impact of EDCs on human pancreatic endocrine cell development and maturation. Using a cocktail of BPA, BPS and trans-nonachlor provided comparable results with in vivo studies of fetus exposure to BPA. Congratulations June, Thomas and Lucas!
Our collaboration with our neighbouring lab continues with Ksenia performing quantitative label-free mass spectrometry, by employing both data-dependent and data-independent acquisition methods, on our cell line model for HNF1A “hot-spot” mutation. Lucas performed in vitro differentiation until pancreatic progenitor stage…
On the occasion of World Diabetes Day, we invite you to a lunch seminar. The seminar starts with lunch at 11:00 in the auditorium in Glasblokkene, Block 8, and will offer two exciting lectures from Simon Dankel and Thomas Aga Legøy that will shed light on current topics within diabetes research.
by Ulrik: This week’s journal club focuses on a study from Nature (2025) characterizing the early cellular changes that might lead to chronic traumatic encephalopathy in young athletes exposed to repetitive head impacts.
Our work on the impact of diet challenges on Hnf1a-deficient beta-cells is now published in Acta Physiologica! Congratulations Shayla, Thomas and Lucas!
by Fatemeh Rahmatabadi: This week’s journal club focuses on a study from Drugs in R&D (2024) aiming to assess the activity of trametinib against a panel of tumor cells from patients with AML
by Agnes Sandvik: This week’s journal club focuses on a study from Front. Bioeng. Biotechnol. (2023) aiming to assess the effects of a microencapsulation system based on the use of “human elastin-like recombinamers” on SC-islets
Welcome to the 61st Contact Meeting of the Norwegian Bioscience Society (formerly known as the Norwegian Biochemistry Society)! The NBS Contact Meeting is a great opportunity for researchers and students to present their work to a national audience. This year’s…
by Shayla Sharmine: This week’s journal club focuses on a study from non-coding RNA (2025) aiming to to investigate the roles of the mouse homolog of Hnf1aos1 in liver function, gene expression, and cellular processes.
by Kaykobad Hossain: in this article, researchers investigated an experimental reductive cell division process, termed mitomeiosis, wherein non-replicated (2n2c) somatic genomes are prematurely forced to divide following transplantation into the metaphase cytoplasm of enucleated human oocytes.
