We are the Winkler Laboratory at the UKHD and DKFZ Heidelberg
Our focus: #cancerneuroscience of #braintumors ( #glioblastoma #brainmetastases), and beyond.
We use #intravitalimaging , #calciumimaging, #preclinicalmodels and more, to tackle these diseases

Scientists from DKFZ and HI-STEM have deciphered a key mechanism that contributes to treatment failure in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This discovery lays an important foundation for more precise and long-term successful treatment strategies. @cp-cellstemcell.bsky.social

Our new preprint on calcium signaling in brain metastases is now on bioRxiv!
Thrilled to share the core work of my doctoral thesis in the @winklerlab.bsky.social, together with @nielsolshausen.bsky.social, @matthiakarreman.bsky.social and many more!
What if brain metastatic cells do not act alone, but form #networks to help them grow?
In our new #preprint, we show that #brainmetastases form malignant, gap-junction mediated #networks that drive cell cycle progression & neural features through Ca²⁺ signaling.

Happy #FluorescenceFriday!
Gap junction inhibition disconnects tumour networks in brain metastases and silences Ca²⁺ oscillations that drive proliferation.

1/n Excited to share our new paper in Nature Cancer 🦀
Meet Hetairos (Greek- “companion”): an AI model that predicts >100 methylation-defined CNS tumour subtypes directly from a routine H&E slide 🧠
State of the art diagnostics- from the slide that’s already on every pathologists’ desk 🧵
Super excited to see our new preprint on calcium signalling in brain metastases now out on bioRxiv!
Very thankful to be part of @winklerlab.bsky.social and working so closely with @nilshebach.bsky.social under the guidance of @matthiakarreman.bsky.social and Frank Winkler and all our collaborators.
