Translational Cell & Gene Therapy Development & Viral Vector Engineering

Postdoctoral Researcher at Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine

Berlin, Germany

About

Postdoctoral Scientist specializing in translational tumor immunology and Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products (ATMPs). With extensive research experience across leading European institutes (Max Delbrück Center, Paul-Ehrlich-Institut, Karolinksa Institute), I bridge molecular engineering with pre-clinical evaluation to accelerate cell and gene therapy pipelines.

Core Expertise & Services:

  • Viral Vector Engineering & Production: Specialized in design, production, and optimization of viral vectors (lentivirus, retrovirus, AAV) for targeted gene delivery and stable cell modification.

  • Cell Therapy Design: Development and benchmarking of next-generation (4th-generation) CAR T-cell constructs, focusing on enhanced payload delivery and microenvironment remodeling.

  • Advanced Pre-clinical Assays: High-throughput 3D tumor spheroid infiltration assays, organoid co-culture systems, and complex single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) workflows to evaluate ATMP efficacy.

  • Collaborative Leadership: Experienced in managing cross-institutional knowledge exchanges and coordinating interdisciplinary research initiatives across academic and industrial networks.
