Breakthroughs don’t happen by following the obvious path. They begin with people who dare to ask new questions. Who connect ideas others might not see. Who bring science, imagination and ambition together. At the NKI, these inspired minds move research forward. Where science meets inspired minds.

Read about how research into lymphatic function is changing our understanding of immune regulation in the lungs in our review: doi.org/10.1016/j.co... Congratulations to co-authors Amy Rivers and Camila Migues Ramirez!

Irena Roci et al. @petrovalab.bsky.social show that the water channel AQP1 sustains lymphatic endothelial cell migration under osmotic stress, establishing tissue #osmolarity as a key biophysical determinant of postnatal #lymphangiogenesis. rupress.org/jem/article/... #lymphatics #AQP1

Happy to share that our latest work on VEGFR2 in lymphatic endothelium is published @natcomms.nature.com “VEGFR2 is required for VEGF-C–VEGFR3–PI3Kα-mediated sprouting lymphangiogenesis” tinyurl.com/47bns9pp This project has been a long journey for the lab @taijamakinenlab.bsky.social , A thread.

Extremely grateful to be granted a two year post-doctoral fellowship by @embo.org to study the earliest phases of mutant to malignant cell transition during breast cancer initiation using intravital microscopy. Thank to @vanrheenenlab.bsky.social for the immense support! @nkinl.bsky.social

After 5 years my scientific chapter in Uppsala is coming to an end. Two weeks ago I have successfully defended my PhD thesis at the Mäkinenlab. Big thanks to Taija for being a true mentor and to Holger Gerhardt for acting as my opponent and critically assessing my work.
