WCMM Fellow | Cell Reprogramming in Hematopoiesis and Immunity Our research The focus of our laboratory is to understand the molecular determinants underlying cell reprogramming and hematopoietic specification. In humans, the multiple differentiated cell states are normally stable and inherited through cell division. Under certain conditions, cell fate can, however, be modified or reversed. Cell r

2014 and 2015 marked the establishment of four Wallenberg Centres for Molecular Medicine at the universities of Gothenburg, Linköping, Lund and Umeå in collaboration with the respective health care regions. The centres represents an initial ten-year and more than 800 million SEK investment from The Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation (KAW), with a prolongation period for 2025-2028 with further fu

Each year, trainees pair up to design a project that utilizies both of their skillsets. They then write a grant proposal based on training and feedback recieved in the research school. At the end, three winning proposals are awarded the Synergy grant with real funds to help them realize the common or individual research work.

WCMM Fellow | Glia-Immune Interactions Our research The brain has a tight blood-brain barrier limiting the removal of solutes to the vascular compartment, and does not contain any lymphatic vessels. Instead, a peri-vascular bulk flow system, named the glia-lymphatic (glymphatic) facilitates brain-wide clearance. The glymphatic system mediates exchange of solutes and peptides, such as amyloid beta,

WCMM Fellow | Regenerative Immunology Our researchThere is tremendous variation in how different species respond to injuries. Following an injury, humans are able to heal wounds, but are left with a scar. This limited regenerative ability is also seen following the amputation of a limb, where humans are unable to regenerate following amputation. In contrast, salamanders are able to fully regenerat
