The Gahmberg Group has an extensive know-how in modern biochemistry, molecular biology and cell biology, and cooperates with several internationally recognized research groups. Several foreign graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and senior scientist have worked in the group. Some are currently members in the research projects.
Currently, the group focuses on two major projects: 1) Regulation of leukocyte integrin activity by phosphorylation, and 2) Role of hypoxia in tumor growth. We have found that a novel integrin and hemoglobin facilitate cancer growth.
