 Short Bio 

I am currently a Postdoctoral Associate in Mihaela Zavolan's group at the Univserity of Basel, Switzerland. My PhD was advised by Ivo Hofacker at the University of Vienna, Austria. Before that I earned a MSc degree in Molecular Biology from the University of Vienna, and a BA degree in Bioinformatics from the Technical University of Vienna.

You can find my full CV as a PDF file here.
