We kicked off the week with an Impromptu Seminar by Francesco Boccellato (@Boc_Lab) on “mucosoids”, human stem-cell-based in-vitro equivalent of a mucosa to study epithelial homeostasis & responses to bacterial infections. Thank you, Francesco & host Adjunct PI Georg Busslinger!

@Boc_Lab developed mucosoid cultures to show EGF controls cell differentiation in the gastric gland & might explain lack of glands in atrophic gastritis Could morphogen mutations in gastric cancer give any advantage to fight bacteria? #EESMicrobialInfections
