Did you know cells from a patient’s brain tumor can be grown in the lab as 3D “organoids”?
In this image by @enricopracucci.bsky.social postdoc in @ahleniuslab.bsky.social, green glioblastoma cells are being reprogrammed into less harmful glial-like cells using an experimental gene therapy. #SciArt

Back from the European Glial Meeting #glia2025 in Marseille! I presented a poster on our #iPSC -based #glioma modelling in Henrik Ahlenius’s lab at Lund Stem Cell Center. Great to meet new people and see where glia research is going!

Going to #GLIA2025 ?
Check posters T21-004A and T24-013B
The team will be represented by Alicja presenting our AD modeling by direct conversion of fibroblasts to astrocytes and neurons, and Enrico will present our inducible BRAF fusion iPSC and cerebellar organoid model of pilocytic astrocytoma.

Did you know cancer cells can be electrically active, just like neurons? This electrical activity plays a key role in tumor progression. Excited to share my first postdoc paper at @crick.ac.uk (and first paper from Leanne Li lab), published in @natureportfolio.nature.com!
Intrinsic electrical activity drives small-cell lung cancer progression - Nature
Electrical excitability in neuroendocrine SCLC cells promotes tumour progression through action potential firing, increasing ATP demand and oxidative phosphorylation dependency, whereas non-neuroendoc...
