Congrats Diego!!😊

@_DiegoBalboa_ @novonordiskfond @STEMMProgram @helsinkiuni Congratulations!!!🍾🎈🎉

Thrilled to announce we just got funded by @novonordiskfond Research Leader program!! We will explore the mechanisms behind islet cell maturation using human pluripotent stem cells. Recruiting PostDocs and PhD students really soon, get in touch ;) @STEMMProgram @helsinkiuni

@_DiegoBalboa_ Congrats!!🍾🎉☺️

Thanks a lot Sigrid Jusèlius foundation for supporting our research!

Thanks a lot @SigridJuselius for the great support! 🙏🙏🙏

@O_Andersson_Lab @UU_University Congratulations Olov!

RESEARCH | From @EmelieBarreby, @PingC_Angela (@karolinskainst): Authors identify a distinct subpopulation of human resident liver myeloid cells that expresses factors that act in a protective fashion against oxidative stress associated with #NAFLD. nature.com/articles/s4225…

Thanks @NatureRevEndo for highlighting our new findings!

@JCharbord @NatMetabolism Thank you Jeremie 😊

Our new study on the heterogeneity of human liver myeloid cells is online today @NatMetabolism!

@MjosbergL @karolinskainst @KarolinskaUnsju @CIM_Sweden Congratulations Jenny! Well deserved!🌺🌺

Congratulations to Jenny for winning the Eric K. Fernström prize for young, promising and successful researchers! We always want to thank all our collaborators at @karolinskainst @KarolinskaUnsju @CIM_Sweden and outside of KI! news.ki.se/jenny-mjosberg…

@Sampsa_H @Cancer_Cell Huge congratulations!!!! So cool! 🎉🎊👏🍾🥂

I am happy to announce that our #TumorEvolution findings in #OvarianCancer are published in @Cancer_Cell! Our results reveal three evolutionary states with distinct features in genomics, pathways, and morphological phenotypes, and significant association to treatment response.

@PaiviPihlajamaa @SuomenAkatemia @HelsinkiUniMed Congrats!!🌺🌺

Many thanks for @SuomenAkatemia for Academy Research Fellow funding, very excited about this opportunity and grateful for everybody who has supported me along the way! @HelsinkiUniMed
