Our 2nd biggest yearly event, the MetaStem Fall Seminar. Great Science, networking and sharing of ideas. Thank you all for active participation Katajisto Lab OtonkoskiLab Henna Tyynismaa lab HietakangasLab Jette Lengefeld lab Arafath (Rafa) Najumudeen lab Diego Balboa lab MattilaLab

Finishing the year with 1st preprint from the lab! Together with Katajisto Lab and ValerioIzzi we investigated the role of basement membrane protein Lama5 and found it is critical for luminal breast cancer initiation and growth biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to have Helena Kilpinen ([email protected]) and special guest Christian Göritz opening the Stem Cell Seminars of 2025 with focus on neurodevelopment, regeneration and fibrotic scarring in the CNS. Jan 23rd 9 am, welcome! @MIBS-Helsinki Institute of Biotechnology (BI) Life Sciences University of Helsinki Medicine and Health, University of Helsinki

Welcome Christian Göritz on Jan 23rd. Excited to hear about your research on perivascular fibroblasts, scarring and regeneration of the central nervous system. The seminar is part of the Stem Cell Seminar series and open to all Life Sciences University of Helsinki Medicine and Health, University of Helsinki HiLIFE_Helsinki

Looking forward to have Christian Göritz visiting us and introducing perivascular fibroblasts to the Helsinki research community next week

The Katajisto Lab modeled #epithelial regeneration using small intestinal scaffolds and identified #asporin is a mediator of fetal-like reprogramming. Read the Cell Stem Cell article: bit.ly/41LJbhn Listen to the conversation: bit.ly/3FBkNHR

A new study from our CoE finds that stem cells can control whether they self-renew or differentiate by localizing certain metabolic reactions differently helsinki.fi/en/faculty-bio… Suomen Akatemia | Research Council of Finland University of Helsinki Katajisto Lab Institute of Biotechnology (BI) @MIBS-Helsinki Hien Bui Pekka Katajisto

New from our CoE by Katajisto Lab show how tissue stem cells can metabolically regulate tissue renewal and differentiation by providing daughter cells with peroxisomes of different age and metabolic properties nature.com/articles/s4146… Suomen Akatemia | Research Council of Finland University of Helsinki HiLIFE_Helsinki

Check out the symposium organized by our CoE, excited to have Marcia Haigis, Lydia Finley, Matthias Hebrok and Tom MacVicar over in Helsinki in November.
