Metabolism lovers! We are busy understanding how diet and lifestyle influence tissue-resident lymphocytes biology in homeostasis and disease!! 👩🏻‍🔬🧑‍🔬 🥼 🧪🧫
Nice meeting everybody again and having great discussions! I have learned a lot of new things :)

Good job Ivan from our lab @suracelab.bsky.social for getting the poster prize !🏆 and Tim from @labwilhelm.bsky.social for getting the talk prize!🏆 congrats both of you!

#clustersciencedays2025 days
The Cluster Science Days 2025 were a very joyful event bringing together our Bonn scientists to share ideas and to network.

During the event the Cluster participants could enjoy talks, interactive poster sessions and a fun evening program in a comfortable atmosphere fostering scientific exchange.

We are all somatic mutation mosaics.
"There are trillions of cells in a human body and so the total number of somatic mutations acquired in a single individual may well exceed quadrillions, millions of times the size of the human genome."

Excited to share our new work in PDAC Cachexia. This work demonstrated that addition of factors like advanced age in murine models can uncover signatures that might have been obscured in other models.
Grateful for @jdoles.bsky.social ‘s mentorship and support!
Looking forward to all feedback :)

ILC2s contribute to glucose homeostasis. Neurons that innervate the gut from areas of the brain associated with glucose sensing can stimulate ILC2s in the gut to relocate to the pancreas upon fasting.
