PROFESSIONAL STATEMENT
Having worked in some of the world s most renowned research environments across three continents, I have
established a unique research niche focused on human centromere maintenance, building on my long-standing
interest and expertise in genome stability and repetitive DNA. Innovation is a strong part of my modus operandi
in my multidisciplinary group bringing together cutting-edge technologies, experimental approaches and overall
strategies in the pursuit of a better understanding of centromere instability and its implications in human disease.
