Department of Clinical and Molecular Medicine Faculty of Medicine and Health SciencesBackground and activities
Cathrine Broberg Vågbø holds a PhD in molecular medicine and is affiliated at the Proteomics and Modomics Experimental Core facility (PROMEC), Department of Clinical and Molecular Medicine, NTNU. She is specialized in RNA epitranscriptomics and DNA epigenetics that regulate gene expression and thus almost all aspects of cell biology. The primary research focus is to understand how errors that occur in these systems lead to human disease. Development of mass spectrometry-based methods for the characterization of chemical RNA and DNA modifications are central to this work. These methods are now included in the analytical repertoire of the PROMEC core facility where they are used by a number of research groups nationally and internationally.
