  Master thesis & employment as research assistant in the Carmine Belin laboratory: I supported the group in their effort to characterize the neurological condition Cluster Headache by increasing the Swedish bio-bank containing blood, DNA and primary cell samples. In addition, I analyzed the impact of nitric oxide and calcitonin-gene related peptide on this disease by utilizing a range of molecular and genetic techniques, including molecular cloning, qPCR, pyrosequencing, in situ hybridization, as well as protein and small molecule assays.

Center for Regenerative Therapies Dresden

• Research Assistant

  • Oct 2015 - Feb 2016

  Laboratory project and research assistant in the Calegari laboratory for the proliferation and differentiation of neural stem cells: I performed lineage tracing of neural progenitor cells in the subventricular zone of a mouse model with shortened cell cycle. I analyzed the cells' proliferation and differentiation processes and tested the model system's applicability for clonal and morphological analysis.

  BSc thesis at the Faculty of Technology supervised by Dr. Joe Max Risse: I improved a multi-stage fermentation system for the optimized growth of E. gracilis and production of vitamin E and paramylon. The goal of the project was to establish a system for the simultaneous production of biomass as a substrate for biogas production, as well as of biomedical products.
