Previous training and experience<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I obtained my Master’s degree in molecular microbiology from the University of Graz (Austria). For my Master thesis I worked at the Medical University of Graz in a research group focusing on the host-pathogen interaction of Burkholderia pseudomallei<\/em>. There I learned to work under BSL-3 conditions and had the chance to further improve my bioinformatics skills that I had acquired during a previous project at the Technical University of Graz. In both projects I
developed analysis pipelines for next-generation sequencing data (RNA-Seq). Alongside my studies at University I did multiple internships in immunology and microbiology research laboratories and in a startup company that works on drug and enzyme discovery (structural biology).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why I wanted to join the project<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project offers me the opportunity to work in a Europe wide network together with other infectious disease enthusiasts and receive further training in bioinformatics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

About my research project<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my research project I am trying to find Salmonella<\/em> Typhimurium competitor strains that are able to re-establish colonization resistance after a high-fat\/low-fiber diet intervention. By doing so, I will try to improve our knowledge about the ecological niches of Salmonella<\/em> Typhimurium in the gut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other interests<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my leisure time I train partner acrobatics and perform shows at local events in Europe (mainly in Austria).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
