What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to apply my toxicology knowledge in research or writing, with opportunities for growth and collaboration.

As a dedicated Master's student in Toxicology at the University of Potsdam, I have developed a strong foundation in molecular toxicology and research methodologies. My thesis focuses on the interplay between trace elements in regulating proteostasis in murine liver and heart, where I utilized confocal microscopy and various activity assays to analyze samples. My experience includes collaborating on the TraceAge project and conducting extensive research on cell cultures.

In addition to my academic pursuits, I have gained practical experience as a Student Assistant at the German Institute of Human Nutrition, where I contributed to research in the Molecular Toxicology Department. My freelance work as a medical writer has allowed me to explore topics related to product safety and ingredients, enhancing my ability to communicate complex scientific information effectively. I am passionate about advancing my knowledge in toxicology and contributing to impactful research in the field.
