I am passionate scientist with the scope of interest in translational research with expertise in oncology and pulmonology. During my PhD at ErasmusMC Rotterdam (top Clinical Research Center in the Netherlands) I investigated inflammatory responses in Cystic Fibrosis and COPD using advanced patient cell-based lung models. My project was conducted in collaboration with researchers from different European and non-European countries (the Netherlands, Germany, Canada), therefore I learned how to build long term international business partnerships. During the period of my PhD I had opportunity to participate in many international conferences as a presenter (The Netherlands, Italy, France, US). I was participating in the regular lung meetings with clinicians, translational researchers and pharmaceutical business partners in Rotterdam, Leiden and Utrecht Clinic.In order to become more independent researcher, I decided on the Postdoc position at Heidelberg Uni Clinic, where I established the foundation for the microscopy based drug testing platform as well as implemented the first single cell sequencing into the clinical practice for patients with lymphoma and leukemia (including DLBCL, FL, CLL). I helped to equip and set up the newly arising laboratory (including purchase of the confocal high throughput microscope for Heidelberg Uni Clinic) and shape the basis for further research. This challenging position helped me to develop high independence in terms of project planning, project management and staff management. Close collaborations with clinicians and researchers from different institutions (Heidelberg Uni Clinic, EMBL, DKFZ, Hannover University) taught me how to communicate with medical doctors, nurses and scientists having expertise in various fields (biostatisticians, chemists, basic researchers). Site management associate position gave me insides into the clinical trial management on the sites. I got familiar with clinical trial operations, European clinical regulations and ICH-GCP. I have high interest in clinical research trials, but I am also passionate about translational oncology, inflammatory responses, NGSeq, SingleCellSeq, diagnostic, data science. I am good team player as well as lead with the proven skills in project and staff management. I have good skills in presenting and transferring scientific knowledge to staff with different background.
