About Me
I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), working at the intersection of bioengineering, stem cell biology, and oncology.
My research focuses on developing advanced human tissue models to investigate the early mechanisms of pancreatic cancer initiation and progression.
Research in Action
SC-PDO Tube
Visualization of a stem cell-derived pancreatic duct organoid (SC-PDO) demonstrating the formation of a distinct monolayer epithelium tube.
SC-PDO Networks
Complex SC-PDO networks with specific pancreatic markers stained to characterize tissue architecture and cellular identity.
