Welcome Joel!

I don't understand why time flies so quickly these days... but I guess it is a good sign, at least there have been or will be soon several graduations, as Unna and Riina have finished everything in their Master programme and they wrapped up nicely the OATP2B1 project, or should I say 2 parallel projects. Of course, there are still minor things to continue before we can write the manuscripts of those results, but it is looking good at the moment in that field! Also, Jerry and Sanni had their master's thesis seminars this week, so getting closer to graduation (and of course I forgot to take photos...).

Also, last week, a new member and Ph.D. student, Joel, started in our group, and to keep us above the surface, Joel will do synthesis, starting with Juuso's CAT1-derivatives, but the aim of his Ph.D. will be purely on computational studies on OATP1B1/1B3. But more about that later, as we will kick that off, once we get other synthetic things rolling smoothly, but anyway, welcome to the team! So, 3 new group members gained, one lost in the past 8 months or so, we are on the positive side! 😎
