About

CV

I have a MSc in Molecular Medicine and a PhD in Medical Technology. My major research areas of interest includes generegulation in disease and how to manipulate gene expression using different molecular techniques. The projects I am currently working on includes omega 3 fatty acids and its effect on colorectal cancer, understanding the roles of lncRNAs in cell cycle regulation, designing short activating RNAs and testing their ability to enhance the expression of target genes.

Competencies

  • CRISPR activation
  • CRISPR interference
  • Cell cultivation
  • Gene regulation
  • RNA interference
  • long non-coding RNA

Research

Gene-lipid interaction in colorectal cancer

This project aims to identify biomarkers (single nucleotide variants (SNVs)) for beneficial PUFA treatment of colorectal cancer.
