PI Daniel Bexell Our researchOur research is about childhood cancer neuroblastoma. We work to understand the mechanisms leading to metastasis and treatment resistant relapse, and to test new treatment against aggressive neuroblastoma. Our projects encompass studies on basic tumor biology as well as preclinical and translational studies with the aim to find novel treatments. We perform molecular an

PI Ramin Massoumi Our researchThe overall goal of our research is to characterize the function of certain genes in development biology and immunology. In addition, we try to identify driver genes that are defined as being linked to human diseases such as cancer and fibrosis. Dissecting the signalling pathway with the focus on the post-translational modifications, will allow us to identify potentia

PI Alexander Pietras BackgroundGlioblastoma multiforme (GBM) the highest-grade glioma and deadliest brain tumor occurs in pediatric as well as adult patients. Despite aggressive treatment with surgery, irradiation and sometimes chemotherapy, tumors invariably recur as incurable lesions. Tumor cells with stem cell characteristics are thought to be responsible for therapeutic resistance in brain tum

PI Kristian Pietras Our researchOur aim is to molecularly map support functions performed by the various cell types comprising the tumor microenvironment. We believe that decisive treatment benefit can only be achieved by targeting several of the cell types that collectively sustain tumor growth. Importantly, the cellular networks within tumors cannot be studied in isolation. Thus, our work ranges

PI Lars Rönnstrand BackgroundThe receptor tyrosine kinases KIT and FLT3 are both important regulators of development and maintenance of a number of different cell types. Deregulation of these receptors by mutations has been implicated in various human malignancies, including akut myeloid leukemia and melanoma. The signaling pathways activated by the oncogenic mutants are to some extent unique and

PI Kazi Julhash Uddin BackgroundDespite incredible progress in the treatment of cancer, the cure rate remains low due to the fact that almost all cancer patients develop resistance to anticancer therapies. This results in as many as 90% of cancer-related deaths in various types of cancer. Consequently, identification of the factors that drive the development of therapy resistance is a pressing is

Acute HIV-1 infectionViral evolution and innate immune responses during acute adult HIV-1 infection and their association with disease pathogenesisIt has been suggested that different virological and immunological events during the very early stages of HIV infection may determine the rate of the future disease course of the individual patient. Previous studies by us and others have suggested that
