Visiting collaborator at Mount Sinai School of Medicine

Ph.D. student Miriam R. Aure recently spent two weeks in New York visiting our collaborator Ass. Prof. Ravi Sachidanandam and his group at Mount Sinai School of Medicine, dept. of Genetics and Genomic Sciences.

The topic of study for the collaboration is microRNAs and their involvement in breast cancer related negative feedforward networks. These networks are common in biological systems and are used to generate sharply defined pulses, exemplified by a transcription factor that promotes expression of an mRNA downstream while promoting expression of an inhibitor of the mRNA (the microRNA) simultanously.

New group member

Thomas Fleischer is a new member of the group. He has just finished his Master degree in biology from NTNU and is now working with us as a vit. ass. with a main focus on methylation.

Espen Enerly goes to the Cancer Registry of Norway

Our long appreciated group member Dr. Espen Enerly who has been working with us for five years as a postdoc has now started in a researcher position at the Cancer Registry of Norway. We will miss Espen, but wish him all the best in his new job.
