Vacatures - PhD tumor immunology of peritoneal metastasis - Amsterdam UMC Colorectal cancer with peritoneal metastases has a particularly poor prognosis. In this KWF-funded project, you will investigate how glycan structures affect immune responses in peritoneal metastasis and whether glycan inhibition can restore anti-tumor immunity.

Our lab is hiring a PhD student to investigate how glycans affect antitumor immune responses in metastases and how this can be modulated to improve immunotherapy! More info here πŸ‘‡

Transgender vrouwen hebben géén verhoogd risico op hartinfarct en beroerte | Amsterdam UMC In tegenstelling tot wat blijkt uit eerdere onderzoeken hebben transgender vrouwen die het hormoon oestradiol gebruiken voor hun transitie, géén verhoogd risico op een hartinfarct en een beroerte in vergelijking met mannen uit de algehele Nederlandse bevolking. Dit blijkt uit een grootschalige studie van Amsterdam UMC met data van ruim 4.000 transgender personen.

Well in short it seems that it does not, even when accounting for relationship quality. Results for future expectations offer a potentially brighter picture. What buffers loneliness for asexuals? We’re speculating, but maybe platonic queer friendships. Check out the preprint! osf.io/preprints/os...

Was a pleasure to see @zoppolat.bsky.social once again present our work testing whether romantic relationship involvement buffers loneliness for asexuals as it has been shown to do for heterosexuals and other sexual minorities at the IARR mini conference in London. Curious about the results?…
