It was a pleasure to host Andreas as an Erasmus+ student in the lab for 4 months. We wish him all the very best for his M2 viva and his future endeavours after that

Can’t believe Iβ€˜m saying this, but Bill Clinton put out a pretty powerful statement about the killings in Minneapolis.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Super happy to have contributed to this YUUGE study, now out in DMM, demonstrating that the pathogenic PTEN-R173C variant displays defective nuclear targeting, driving macrocephaly, lymphoid hyperplasia and late-onset cancer in a PTEN Hamartoma Tumour Syndrome mouse model doi.org/10.1242/dmm....

Reached 10 000km on my trusty Kalkhoff e-bike. Some stats πŸ˜‚ - 333,3 round trips to work, 2 small accidents, 1 road rage driver who "pepper sprayed" me 😱, 1 incident helping local police find my nationality in their electronic devices so I could be fined (all paid up!), and...0 punctures!
