I have an academic background in microbiology and molecular biology. In 2021, I completed my bachelor’s degree in molecular biology & biotechnology from the Technical University Dresden. During my bachelor’s thesis, I studied microbial interactions in the context of natural product biosynthesis. That sparked my interest in microbiology, so I pursued a master’s degree in microbiology at the University of Tübingen, graduating in 2024.  In my final thesis, I investigated the biosynthesis and resistance mechanism of a novel antibiotic, which increased my awareness for the importance of antibiotic research.

During my studies, I had the chance to complete an internship at GSK in Marburg, where I learned firsthand about the practical applications of microbiology in industry.

I’m now looking forward to collaborating with experts from diverse backgrounds in the BREAKthrough project. I’m excited about the opportunity to collectively address the urgent need for novel antimicrobial treatments and combat the growing threat of antibiotic resistance.
