Congrats to @anupamahl.bsky.social & Selma Dahmane on their @snsf.ch grants, totalling nearly CHF 2 million! Hemalatha's team will explore how metabolism shapes the fate of cancer-causing mutations in skin. Dahmane's group will investigate how immune cells detect Zika virus and trigger inflammation.
