The best way to rejuvenate after an all-day lab meeting, you ask? An action packed game of laser tag (pew-pew!)🔫🔫
Major missing :( boss @johannaivaska

New pre-print! @Follain_Ga and team develop a super cool pipeline to work out the intricacies of immune and PDAC cell adhesion to HUVECs and extravasation under flow. Fantastic collab with @guijacquemet lab and @SalmiLab. Congrats🥂

Third of the year and the biggest review article now out!
Massive effort from @MeganChastney, Jasmin Kaivola, Veli-Matti Leppänen & @johannaivaska! Discover all about integrins in migration, invasion and cancer right here: rdcu.be/dVB6n
Congratulations to the team 🥳!
@IvaskaLab THE review on 'everything' you have ever wanted to know about integrins in cancer, invasion and migration. Many cool new concepts highlighted from the beautiful research from experts in the field 👇@MeganChastney #VMLeppänen #JasminKaivola

Latest from Ivaska Lab▶️ @johannalilja_, Kaivola et al. report an unanticipated way to kill KRAS mutant cancer cells by disrupting SHANK3-KRAS interaction 👌😎
Congratulations to all the authors and check the paper out here 👉rdcu.be/dTQDP
What happens when unexpected happens!? 1) @johannalilja_ @IvaskaLab #JasminKaivola identified SHANK3 as a KRAS inhibitor 2) predicted SHANK3 depletion boosts KRASmut tumors 3) observed SHANK3 depletion kills KRAS-cells by ERK hyperactivation, apoptosis rdcu.be/dTQDP

Our latest work by @aisomursu and co. We are very excited to share a method for dynamic micropatterning. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… Confine a cell and then release it to spread onto a new matrix protein! So many possibilities. Please read @aisomursu 's thread
Our latest work with @jonna_alanko, @sarahdezperez, @mattilalab and others is out! We established a new method for dynamic micropatterning (dynamic control over cell size, shape and cell-substrate interactions). Key takeaways below. | onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… 1/5
