Research Assistant

University of Helsinki

I hold a bachelor’s degree in biology and am currently pursuing a master’s degree in Genetics and Molecular Biosciences at the University of Helsinki. As part of my thesis work at Tampere University, I am studying novel therapeutic approaches in cancer using patient-derived organoid models. More broadly, I am interested in the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying human diseases and how these insights can be translated into improved treatments. In my free time, I enjoy spending time outdoors and birdwatching.
