About me
I am a dedicated researcher, meticulous and well organized. Appreciated for building trust in relations and sharing creative solutions to challenging research problems. I enjoy working as part of a team, as well as, being capable of working independently and critically overseeing my own research projects. I combine a broad background in peptides and probes chemistry, cell and molecular biology, data analysis and imaging applications. I have acquired a strong background in neuroscience, with my MSc course in Medical and Pharmaceutical biotechnology and PhD programme in Neurochemistry with Molecular Neurobiology. Beside my academic studies, I expand my knowledge within the pharmaceutical chemistry field by joining Prof. Kelley's laboratory at University of Toronto for a Postdoctoral Fellowship, I continued in the field of molecular toxicology at Karolinska Institutet in Prof. Fadeel laboratory, and now at the department of Microbiology, Tumor and Cell Biology in Prof. Arsenian-Henriksson, Lane and Landreh groups.
