I’m incredibly grateful to #ERC for their support and look forward to what we can achieve together through #UPTAKE.
I couldn’t have done this without the support of my family and friends who put up with me through the whole process. 😃
Ville Hietakangas, Craig Primmer and Sarah Butcher, many old friends and colleagues from @cruk-si.bsky.social Sansom Lab, Dusty, Tom McVicar & Karen Blyth.
The Panel members and Referees of the @ERC_Research #LS4 panel, whose valuable feedback pushed & refined our plans further into new frontiers.
Some called in from their holidays in my moments of absolute panic about slides, some called during coffee breaks in meetings, thank you! They didn’t have to, but they did and that means a lot. @anna-vaharautio.bsky.social, @johannaivaska.bsky.social, Satu Mustjoki, @katajistolab.bsky.social
I want to highlight and thank the following key people who helped all the way from writing to the day before the interview.
🌟 Delighted to have been awarded an ERC Consolidator Grant from European Research Council (ERC) #ERCCoG! In the #UPTAKE project, we will explore how #metabolism is spatially organised by uptake of nutrients by #solutecarriers #SLC transporters in #intestinal #stem cells and #colorectal #cancer.

Credit to all the lab members and collaborators who helped. Congrats to all my colleagues at @fimm-uh.bsky.social @helsinki-biotech.bsky.social @helsinki.fi who were also funded!
We are very grateful to the Research Council of Finland (Suomen Akatemia) for continued support of our work on metabolism and cancer. Kiitos, Tack!
This Project Grant aims to understand the metabolic plasticity of the intestine in normal and disease states at single-cell resolution!
Glad to be highlighted as FutureLeaders in Cancer research by Cancer Grand Challenges @cancergrand.bsky.social. Thank you! @fimm-uh.bsky.social, @helsinki-biotech.bsky.social, @metastem.bsky.social, @cruk-si.bsky.social.

Yesterday, excellent science in the fully booked 2025 edition of Single Cell Omics symposium @helsinki.fi, with 300 participants! With Judith Zaugg & @mkuijjer.bsky.social,@haikalab.bsky.social, Minna Kaikkonen-Määttä, Maria Kasper, @e-manieri.bsky.social, Giole La Manno & @hagentilgner.bsky.social.
The song is on repeat in our house this morning and the kids don’t understand why mom keeps singing about bastu.. 😄
The beauty of science: you start by exploring a #cancer gene and find its unexpected role in obesity. Months later, you’re diving into a whole new research angle on #obesity and combination therapies to combat obesity…
👍
Thanks Christian!
Together with friend and collaborator
@joharrr.bsky.social, we highlight spatial metabolomics as a new Tool to understand cell biology!
