2025-2026 | Meltzer prosjektstipend: Deciphering the role of WNT4 in bladder cancer using patient-derived organoids We plan to investigate the role of Wnt4 in the generation of PDOs, including an assessment of the tumorigenic ability of laboratory grown PDOs by injecting them into mice and by observing tumor formation. |
 |
2024-2028 | PhD Project: Investigating cell transitions and predictive cancer signature in bladder urothelium We plan to use complex genetic setups, patient derived organoids and multi-omics to dynamically characterize the switch from epithelial regeneration to tumorigenesis using bladder urothelium as a model. |
