Excited to see our review out in @cp-trendsendomet.bsky.social! Great team effort and lots of fun to dive into how #islets form and how we can use this knowledge for #diabetes therapy. @mireiamoli.bsky.social @ckarampelias.bsky.social @heikolickert.bsky.social www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

💥 Great fun writing this #review with @alejotorrescano.bsky.social – reflecting on the emergence of #pancreatic #lineages in the #embryo through the lens of #plasticity - Just out online ➡️ rdcu.be/fiw3c @wellcometrust.bsky.social @kingscollegelondon.bsky.social @kingslsm.bsky.social

Happy to share a new tool from the @heikolickert.bsky.social lab! We generated human iPSC fluorescent reporter lines to monitor Wnt/PCP signaling activity by Flattop in stem cell derived β-cells. doi.org/10.1016/j.sc... Thanks to all the co-authors that helped in the present and the past!

Happy to share our work on pancreatic ductal organoids from the human-relevant pig model across developmental stages ranging from embryonic to adult animals and using them for drug screening applications from the @heikolickert.bsky.social lab. #PancSky #devbio 🧪🧬 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... /1

My top highlight for 2025 - EMBO workshop in Saint Feliu - three exciting days of science crossing boundaries of liver & pancreas research! Co-organised by @CebolaLab @1jorgeferrer @VallierLab @LickertHeiko & Emma Anderson #livertwitter #islets #masld #diabetes meetings.embo.org/event/25-liv...

Join us in a beautiful location for this multidisciplinary experience. Top speakers linking topics such as organoid modeling, synthetic biology, gene regulation or genetics with disease mechanisms & new therapies for T1D, T2D, and MASLD meetings.embo.org/event/25-liver-pancreas

Thrilled to share one of our biggest discoveries: “Inceptor binds to and directs insulin towards lysosomal degradation in beta cells”. doi.org/10.1038/s422... A tremendous collaborative effort led by JohannaSiehler, Sara Bilekova and other members of the Lickert lab @heikolickert.bsky.social
