The #iHOME2025 conference is off to a great start at @dkfz.bsky.social! We're excited for 2 days of organoid science from our speakers, like Barbara Treutlein, Max Reichert, Joep Beumer and @kimbakjensen.bsky.social. With @jackstadt-lab.bsky.social @moritzmall.bsky.social @kimboonekamp.bsky.social

Just 2 days left to secure one of the last 5 spots for the “International Heidelberg #Organoid Meeting (#iHOME2025)” (20+21 March 2025) at @dkfz.bsky.social , powered by @proteintech.bsky.social, Cenibra, OLS @hlsalliance.bsky.social: indico.dkfz.de/event/1249/

🎉Congratulations to our Poster Prize winners, Manuel Mastel (DKFZ), Bianca Diaz (Weill Cornell Medicine), Martina Farber (NKI) & Menno Boon (NKI)!🎉 #AMC25 @manuelmastel.bsky.social @martina-farber.bsky.social @juliensage.bsky.social

#CellPlasticity—the ability of cells to change their identity—is vital for tissue growth and repair. But when it goes unchecked, it can fuel #cancer. Our latest study examines how to block #LiverCancer by actively suppressing plasticity. www.nature.com/articles/s41... #CancerBiology

I've never been more excited to be (a very minor) part of a collaboration than this tour-de-force by the Elinav labs at @dkfz.bsky.social and WIS. Groundbreaking approach to figure out where the proteins in stool come from. Congrats Rafael Valdes-Mas, Avner Leshem, Danping Zheng! t.co/hKHkS6VGWS

🚨 We’re excited to announce a clinical trial targeting #TROP2 in advanced #colorectal #cancer. Learn more about it: @dkfz.bsky.social www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Wonderful kick off of our #CANBIO2 retreat with amazing talks by Sabine Tejpar, Jorge Moscat, María T. Diaz-Meco, @jenspuschhof.bsky.social and Thomas Helleday. What a great way to start in a new institute! 🤩 #newPI #scienceisfun #cancer_biology

Our new #organoid #organchip #coculture review. Congrats @kamilmoskal.bsky.social, Yeseul Lee, Luisa Siegert, Nimisha Khurana from @emil-dkfz.bsky.social @dkfz.bsky.social! Cool experience connecting the dots between in organotypic models and microbiome with @hansclevers.bsky.social and Eran Elinav

Do you want to study #cancer #microbe interactions using #organoids and #organ #chips? Have a look at our guide to co-culture platforms, just out in Int J Cancer with Jens Puschhof, Hans Clevers, Eran Elinav and fellow @emil-dkfz.bsky.social colleagues: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Another part of my former PhD work at @mpi-mp-potsdam.bsky.social is now finally published. I am especially happy about the parallel release of the journal article in @csbjournal.bsky.social (doi.org/10.1016/j.cs...) and the dataset through @nfdi4plants.bsky.social (doi.org/10.60534/ecj...).

Thrilled to see @emil-dkfz.bsky.social @dkfz.bsky.social among the 12 new cancer research labs featured in @naturecancer.bsky.social as part of "The 2024 generation". I loved reading the other authors' reflections on their career paths and ideas for their labs! Have a look: rdcu.be/d3R8r

Hyped to be at the #ESSB #spatial #biology conference together with some of my colleagues from the @saezlab.bsky.social . Great science, beautiful venue, looking forward to the next 1.5 days...

I am so excited to share the biggest (and best) part of my #PhD in @maxreichertmd.bsky.social lab We show how inter/intra-tumoral #heterogeneity impacts plasticity and treatment resistance by using #PDAC #organoids @natureportfolio.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

#Colorectal #Cancer #Starterpack. Patient Advocates, Scientists, Physicians, Institutes and Journals with a focus on Colorectal Cancer. Please comment/text to be added! go.bsky.app/PGqU6zP

About one week left to apply! Open postdoc position for analysing environmental microbiome data, e.g. from @embl.org 's TREC expedition along the coastlines of Europe www.embl.org/about/info/t...

#Organoid #Starterpack #1 is now full (go.bsky.app/RmXgs6d). Time for #Organoids #2/2: go.bsky.app/JVA5H2a Already many great new arrivals & finds such as @batllelab.bsky.social, @saurlab.bsky.social & more!

#Organoid Starter Pack! 🤩 Courtesy of @jenspuschhof.bsky.social - lots of great organoid/#stemcell/#cellbiology research to follow.

Excited to share my latest paper, published today at @natureportfolio.bsky.social ! A big thank you to all our collaborators. The paper shows how RANK drives intestinal epithelial expansion during reproduction. #intestine #stemcells #pregnancy www.nature.com/articles/s41...

An updated list with those added who wanted to join go.bsky.app/VVLoMPx

Exciting study by Amanda Andersson Rolf et al: In vitro expansion of a human fetal #pancreas #stemcell that generates all three pancreatic cell lineages”. www.cell.com/cell/fulltex... New #organoid protocol allows the seemingly indefinite expansion of human fetal pancreatic Lgr5+ stem cell 1/

Excited to share my new @cellcellpress.bsky.social paper from @thecleverslab.bsky.social was published today! Thanks to @hansclevers.bsky.social and all our collaborators. #organoids #stemcells #pancreas

Very happy (and somewhat shocked) to have been awarded an #ERC #CoG grant to study how cervical #mucus prevents intrauterine infection and #preterm birth... looking forward to meeting a new mucosal community! (Watch this space for project linked job ads 🤩)

After exactly 1 week, we have just passed 100 #organoid researchers in the #starter #pack - including, finally, @hansclevers.bsky.social! Feel free to keep (self) nominating. go.bsky.app/RmXgs6d

The #intestine's dynamics (environment/movement/stiffness/flow) shapes stem cell fitness and function, shown here via PIEZO channels and is reflected in in-vitro models. So, are static 3D cultures sufficient? Could microphysiological systems #MPS #Organ-on-chip offer a better approach here?

#mucus #gobletcell #mucin starterpack now up and running! It's a short list so far so please let me know if you want to be added to it 🦠 go.bsky.app/7Z84CmG

Posting one of my favorite #organoid images for #microscopymonday. A 100+ day-old skin organoid with emerging hair follicles (ECAD, cyan) and endothelial cells (CD31, red). See: www.nature.com/immersive/d4.... Credit: Jiyoon Lee and Matt Steinhart from our lab. #devbio #stemcells

Looking for a job as a #Research #Technician in #Cancer #Microbiome? We offer a collaborative team, diversity of methods, opportunity for further training and a stimulating & fun work place at DKFZ @dkfz.bsky.social! Apply now to our group (or share with your network): jobs.dkfz.de/en/jobs/1671...

Our team at the #DKFZ #Epithelium #Microbiome Interaction #Lab (@dkfz.bsky.social) is still thinking hard about our social media strategy... In the meantime, let's continue to figure out how the #microbiome and #cancer interact using #organoids and #organ #chips!
