Technology transfer

My academic training in the life sciences, including research stages in Germany and the United States, has shaped my strong interest in the interface between research, application, and knowledge transfer. I gained hands-on experience in technology transfer at Leibniz University Hannover, with a particular emphasis on supporting patenting and commercialization processes. After completing my master’s thesis with a focus on chemical engineering and molecular biology at Northeastern University in Boston, I pursued my doctoral studies at the Institute of Pharmaceutical Biology in Würzburg. To further strengthen my interdisciplinary skill set, I completed additional training in life science management, thereby deepening my expertise in project planning, business fundamentals, and regulatory affairs. Since January 2026, I have been working at BioRegio STERN in project management and technology transfer, advising start-up initiatives and coordinating the Science2Start idea competition.

„I completed my master’s degree in biology at the University of Hohenheim. During my internship at Greiner Bio-One GmbH, I gained a working knowledge of the operations of the various departments in the company. This gave me an understanding of the entire development process of products for specific applications in medical, pharmaceutical and biotechnological research and industry. Afterwards, I wrote my thesis at the Institute for Membrane Physiology in collaboration with Greiner Bio-One GmbH. During this time, I characterised magnetic nanoparticles, which represent a model system for creating 3D cell cultures, and investigated their influence on cellular parameters. Since February 2018, I have been working at BioRegio STERN Management GmbH, where I support the project management team on national projects.“
