Copenhagen, Capital Region of Denmark, Denmark
I am a scientist with extensive experience in stem cell and developmental biology, specializing in cell culture, quantitative imaging, and data analysis. My research focuses on advancing our understanding of human development using stem cells, with a keen interest in stem cell-derived organoids and their application in translational research to bridge the gap between fundamental research and clinical applications. I have honed my technical and analytical skills through hands-on experience in both academic research and industry, including an internship at Sygnature Discovery. I thrive in dynamic, fast-paced environments, whether working independently or within cross-functional teams. My ability to set up and troubleshoot complex experiments has consistently driven productivity and innovation in my projects. I am passionate about applying my expertise to develop cutting-edge technologies and treatments, and I am eager to contribute to the growing field of translational research.
- Integrated scRNA sequencing datasets and developed Python-based analysis workflows - Collaborated to produced novel reporter hESC lines using CRISPR/CAS9. - Managed lab maintenance, organisation, and team collaboration.
- Developed an in vitro micropatterned hESC model for early embryo development studies. - Expanded understanding of signalling dynamics in mesoderm, endoderm and mesendoderm cell fate decisions, with work published in Development (DOI: https://doi.org/10.1101/2023.06.01.543323). - Extensively applied quantitative confocal imaging, high-content analysis, mechanical force measurement techniques, and scRNA-seq to investigate cell fate decisions.
- Increased brand awareness, resulting in 300+ new student registrations and 100+ new leads. - Designed and delivered workshops tailored for students and early-career researchers, focusing on scientific methodologies such as antibody-based immunoassays. - Co-developed an online image analysis course to enhance accessibility to quantitative imaging training, scheduled for public release.
- Led a capability project involving in vivo and in vitro samples, gaining hands-on experience in assay development and translational research. - Maintained meticulous electronic lab records, ensuring data integrity and compliance with industry standards. - Collaborated with cross-functional teams, enhancing interdepartmental communication to integrate data for comprehensive analyses.
