I have a PhD student and an undergrad student positions open at the Institute of Biotechnology @helsinki.fi We are using reconstitution, cell and structural biology to study protein-membrane interactions and membrane microdomain formation. Links to calls below! Feel free to drop a message and share!

Old mitochondria regulate niche renewal via α-ketoglutarate metabolism in stem cells - Nature Metabolism
Andersson et al. show that intestinal stem cells enriched for old mitochondria are metabolically distinct and have enhanced ability to regenerate the epithelial niche.

Finishing the year with 1st preprint from the lab! Together with @katajistolab.bsky.social and @valerioizzi.bsky.social we investigated the role of basement membrane protein Lama5 and found it is critical for luminal breast cancer initiation and growth

Tumour-derived LAMA5 is critical for tumour initiation and controls progression and phenotype in luminal breast cancer
Basement membrane (BM) supports and regulates the structural integrity, function and differentiation of epithelial tissues and protects against stromal invasion of breast cancer cells. Here we show th...
