Who says lab life can't come with a side of fun?
Throwing it back to an unforgettable evening at the EISG conference dinner in Sweden (June 11–13)! Great chats, great company, and even better vibes. Here’s to science and smiles!

🔬 We have reached the final day of #EISG2025 in Malmö and we're looking forward to today’s programme. Professor Klaus H. Kaestner kkaestner.bsky.social from University of Pennsylvania gives a keynote lecture on the human islet in diabetes – lessons learned from the Human Pancreas Analysis Program. 🧫
Great place to present and discuss about the projects of Ryoichi Taguchi and Laura Häfele both working on beta-cell function. 🧬🤓 @eisg2025.bsky.social #eisg2025
PhD student Kousik Mandal from Uppsala University presents a poster on pancreatic islet research at our poster session at #eisg2025. The work has been supported by the strategic research area EXODIAB in Sweden. @kousikun.bsky.social

Whole pancreas imaging
What is an islet? Whole huma pancreas imaging gives some surprising results at @eisg2025.bsky.social #eisg2025
At @eisg2025.bsky.social in Sweden — loving the science, the chats, and the new ideas! @williambw.bsky.social showcasing some of our team’s ongoing research.
If you’re here too, come say hi! Excited to learn, share, and connect with brilliant minds in islet biology!
#eisg2025 #kclt1grandchallenge
Excited to be presenting one of my PhD projects at #eisg2025 🧬✨
Come say hi at poster 211 or just come chat👋🏻 if you're interested in how a lncRNA might regulate PD-L1 expression in pancreatic beta cells🧫💥
Would love to talk science! 😊 @eisg2025.bsky.social
Huge congrats to our amazing friend Mariana for presenting a great talk at the #EISG2025!!! 🧪🧬🔥
