High fructose diet in early life is bad by Ulrik Larsen Inspired by a lab member constantly theorizing about HNF1A and the brain, I came across a study on how early-life high fructose exposure affects brain development, focusing on microglia…
by Lucas Unger Yang et al. demonstrate that HHEX is a lineage-restricting transcription factor essential for pancreas specification from foregut progenitors. Through CRISPR-Cas9 loss-of-function screening combined with hiPSC differentiation and single-cell multiomics, the study reveals that deletion of HHEX diverts…
by Fatemeh Rahmatabadi This study by Hirosawa et al. investigates the effect of the p38 MAPK inhibitor SB202190 on acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells. While p38 signaling is typically associated with stress responses and growth inhibition, treatment of AML cell…

Agnes Sandvik will start working on her Master Thesis for one year in our lab (2024-2025) as part of Master’s in biology organised by the Department of Biological Sciences (BIO). Agnes will work with Lucas Unger under the supervision of Luiza…
by Thomas Aga Legøy In traditional toxicology, the focus has been on evaluating the adverse effects of individual chemicals and establishing safe exposure levels. However, there is a growing recognition that real-world exposures involve complex mixtures of chemicals, which may…
by Kaykobad Hossain Carcinomas are the most prevalent form of cancer, which is characterized by malignancies of epithelial tissues. Bladder cancer, one of the costliest cancers to treat, is ideal to investigate epithelial morphogenesis at early stages of tumorigenesis due…
