Our next speaker will be Tom Barsby (@BioBarsby), a postdoctoral researcher in the Stem Cells and Metabolism Research Program at the University of Helsinki 🇫🇮. He will discuss the metabolite trafficking and fuel sensitivity in human pluripotent stem cell-derived islets.





The 2023 award for the best publication in Biomedicine in Finland goes to @OtonkoskiL for their landmark study in @NatureBiotech last year. Congratulations @OtonkoskiT @_DiegoBalboa_ @BioBarsby @V_Lithovius et al helsinki.fi/en/researchgro… @SuomenAkatemia @helsinkiuni







News from our CoE by @OtonkoskiL, @BioBarsby et al show that function of stem-cell derived islets is depending on mitochondrial aerobic metabolism despite their sensitivity to alternative fuels and aberrant metobolic activity sciencedirect.com/science/articl… @SuomenAkatemia @helsinkiuni
