After 12 years working at the Genomics Technologies Facility (GTF) in the Génopode building, Leonore Wigger will stay at the UNIL but will work from Sep. 1, 2022 in Prof. Dmitri Firsov’s group (Bugnon 27). She also keeps her part-time position at Vital-IT, SIB, Amphipôle so remains our neighbour!
We will miss her and wish her the best for the future!
Sanyami Zunjarrao obtained her integrated Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Biotechnology from the Institute of Bioinformatics and Biotechnology, Savitribai Phule Pune University in India, in 2019. For her master’s thesis, she worked in the lab of Dr. Beena Pillai at the Institute of Genomics and Integrative Biology in India, investigating the role of non-coding RNAs in the regeneration of earthworms. Her work focused on studying the localization and expression patterns of novel non-coding RNAs in regenerating earthworms.
After her graduation, she joined the National Chemical Laboratory in India as a project assistant, where she worked in the lab of Dr. Ashok Giri to help genetically engineer fungus to obtain a high Penicillin-producing strain. She will join the Gambetta group in September 2022 as a Ph.D. student.
My name is Benedikt Dürr and I hold a master of science degree in human biology from LMU Munich. Previous to that I studied biology in my bachelor’s degree (LMU).
This fall I would like to join Dr. Thomas Auer’s lab for an internship to extend my current knowledge in the field of evolutionary and behavioural neuroscience. I take this as a chance to learn research techniques used in the recently established model organism Drosophila sechellia. These methods, which focus on the fruit fly’s nervous system, include histological sample preparation, connectomic analysis and single cell sequencing, to name but a few. I am planning to apply the gained knowledge during my PhD and future research projects.
Hello, I am Jenisha Khadka. I did my bachelor’s in biotechnology from Purbanchal University (Nepal), during which I worked on “Isolation of plastic degrading bacteria and molecular mechanism behind plastic degradation”. My bachelor’s study inspired me to work on molecular biology. I joined master’s in molecular Life Sciences at Friedrich Schiller University Jena, (Germany) where I carried out my master thesis and internship at Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine in Berlin (Germany) in the lab of Prof. Dr. Michela Di Virgilio. There, I was working on the project “Optogenetic Reconstitution of Class Switch Recombination factors in primary B lymphocytes”.
I am now happy to join the Gambetta lab as PhD student.
