Research Gate    NCBI Bibliography

I studied Biotechnology (BSc) at the University of Silesia in Poland and undertook my MSc in Analytical Bioscience at the University of Huddersfield. I obtained my PhD in Dr Mark Pfuhl’s lab at King’s College London where I investigated the function of the MS1 protein, a cardiac stress response factor. For my postdoctoral research, I joined Dr Rachel Tribe’s lab at King’s College London where I studied expression of Kv7 potassium channels in the human myometrium. I then joined Dr Tony Jackson’s lab at the University of Cambridge where I characterised the role of extracellular loops of Nav sodium channels. I joined Sebastian’s lab in July 2017.
