Very happy to share the final chapter of my PhD Research with @GeertLab, now online in @NatMetabolism, revealing that the pentose phosphate pathway in #chondrocytes is crucial for ER redox homeostasis and cell survival to ensure chondrocyte functioning and bone lengthening (1/4)
Time-lapse of our latest asset: meet the Echo-zenoTOF (@SCIEXnews). We will move into large cohort screening with analysis time as low as 0.3 sec/sample. The Echo is currently on its way to Hamilton (@HamiltonCompany) for robotics integration @FWOVlaanderen@VIBLifeSciences
First conference, first presentation! Stellar performance by Lore Rosseels, discussing the role of the glycolytic regulator PFKFB3 during #bone development and #metabolism! #proudPI#ects2024
Last weekend, a CCB delegation cycled the #1000km of @komop_tgkanker 🚴🚴
Together with 1250 other teams, they managed to collect almost 7M EUR to support cancer research!
Amazing effort, amazing team 🤩
Thank you Bram, Shauni, Isabelle, Lars, Alexandra, Frederik en Amelie!
Last week 2 of our colleagues (Shauni and Lars) cycled to raise money for the cancer research foundation @komop_tgkanker. Together with other cyclists they raised close to 7M euro!! @VIBLifeSciences@KU_Leuven@vib_ccb
Happy to share that another manuscript of my PhD research was recently published in @The_JBMR: we show that different types of #skeletal#stem and progenitor cells increase proliferation in #hypoxia by rewiring glucose and amino acid #metabolism in a cell-specific manner. (1/3)
And most importantly, grateful for the amazing team I have, every step, they supported, no matter how crazy the challenge or requests I had, they joined in the endeavour. Never had so much fun in all the steps of this grant application. We are LAMaS!!Thanks!!!
📢 PhD position available in our #research group 📢
We have an exciting project for a motivated #PhD student to study the impact of gender-affirming therapy on #bone! More info 👇: https://t.co/UQE7m9ybkn

Congratulations @protonsponge87 (aka Marco Giampa) for obtaining a MSCA postdoctoral fellowship! Thank you so much @MSCActions and @EU_Commission for supporting a talented young researcher keen on developing new metabolomics technologies! @KU_Leuven@VIBLifeSciences@vib_ccb
Very happy to share our latest work @GeertLab on the role of de novo #serine synthesis for #osteoclast differentiation, now online @NatMetabolism! 🥳https://t.co/OHbCTu6wGE
Do you want to know more about cancer metabolism? @VIBMetaboCoreLV is ready to teach you. Join us : KU Leuven - Wat eten kankercellen? - Op Locatie - https://t.co/wCajMBunan. And here is a sneak preview on how food is used to support growth of cells. @VIBLifeSciences@KU_Leuven
📢📢Hey #bone researchers! We are 20 days away from the abstract deadline for the #BonesandTeethGRS! Trainees, submit your work by Oct 22nd to be considered as a speaker. PI's, share this amazing opportunity with the trainees in your group. https://t.co/mj2kujxCX3
Wait for ittttttt.... Very excited to announce the start of a new chapter in my academic career @VIBMetaboCoreLV ! #Metabolomics always had a special place in my heart, so I am ready to take it to the next level!! @VIBLifeSciences@vib_ccb
