We welcome David as an Angem Scholar this summer
We are happy to host David Andreu Sanz from the Universitat Ramón Llull (Barcelona) as one of this year Amgen Scholars at Karolinska Institutet. This program offers the opportunity for international and national undergraduate students to conduct research during 8 weeks in the summer at KI. Looking forward for an exiting summer.
Postdoc project awarded with Prof. Visa at SU
We were recently awarded a shared postdoctoral position together with our collaborator Prof. Neus Visa from Stockholm University. This position is funded by Stockholm University and aimed to stimulate collaborations between principal investigators at SciLifeLab and other parts of the Stockholm University campus . […]
Maryia and Yuanyuan got awarded their Master degree
We want to congratulate Maryia Ropat and Yuanyuan Xi who recently defended their Research projects for the SciLifeLab Master’s programme in Molecular Techniques in Life Science (KI/KTH/SU). They both performed excellent computational work at our lab in the context of transcriptional complexity and RNA degradation. Congratullations!
Lilit got awarded a MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowship
Big congratulations to Lilit Nersisyan in our lab who was recently awarded a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Individual Fellowship. Here a complete list of the awarded at Karolinska Institute in this last call.
Eva won the Antoni van Leeuwenhoek award 2018
We want to congratulate Eva Brinkman for being awarded the Antoni van Leeuwenhoek award 2018. Congratulations!!
Welcome Donal!
We welcome Donal Barrett to our team. Donal studied at the University of Limerick (Ireland) and Stockholm University. He studied Molecular Biology at Umeå University, Stockholm University and Karolinska Institutet. He will help us in the development of novel molecular biology and genomic tools for biomedicine.
Congratulations Alisa!
Alisa defended last week her half-time PhD control. Great Job!
Welcome Inka!
We welcome Inka Schröter to our lab. She is a master student from the Technische Universität Darmstadt (Germany) who will perform an Erasmus+ internship with us. She will collaborate on the development of novel approaches to study chromatin.
Course: “Genomics for Biomedical scientist: Handle your gene expression data”
I am organizing together with my colleague Claudia Kutter a PhD course to help decreasing the gap between wet-lab and computational interpretation “Genomics for Biomedical scientist: Handle your gene expression data“.
