Research interests

I did my early academic studies in Denmark, studying Chemical and Biotechnical Science. I now am an Honours graduate of Microbiology and Biotechnology at the Edinburgh Napier University. Following a one-year placement at European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), I am now developing my scientific career and my laboratory techniques. My main research areas of interest are cell biology, immunology, genetics and STEM cell research.
