Alumni

Germán G. Leparc, post-doctoral fellow

Germán worked with us on gene and spliceform prediction, microarray probe design, and the analysis of next generation sequencing data, such as RNA-Seq expression profiles – publications (while with the group)

He is now looking for potential drug-targets at Boehringer Ingelheim, Biberach an der Riss, Germany.

Ulrike Mückstein, post-doctoral fellow

Ulrike applied her background in modelling thermodynamics and kinetics of nucleic acid interactions to improving our understanding of the machanisms of microarray hybridization – publications (while with the group)

2. 11. 1969 – 8. 10. 2010

Gabriela Koskova, post-doctoral fellow

Gabriela studied advanced models for time course analysis.

She has since returned to the Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava.

Smriti worked on modelling of interactions in microRNA and gene expression and validation of predicted targets. – publications (while with the group)

Thomas Tüchler, pre-doctoral fellow

Thomas worked on quantitative analyses and models, such as the deduction of labelling bias from quantitative gel images – publications (while with the group)

He is now responsible for the control of fermentation processes in drug production at Baxter Austria.

Anaïs Bardet, pre-doctoral fellow

Anaïs worked with us on a number of sequence analysis projects – publications (while with the group)

After obtaining a PhD while working for the Stark group at IMP, she is continuing her resereach as a PostDoc in Schübeler Group at FMI.
