Dr. Rossana Romero
PostDoc
Rossana obtained her Bachelor's and Master's degree in Biomedical Science in the Philipps University of Marburg. During her PhD, she studied the influence of the gut microbiota on the maturation of the intestinal vascular- and immune system in order to eliminate persistent enteric infections.
In December of 2021, she joined the Research Group of Prof. Dr. Krishnaraj Rajalingam and is planning on working on papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) organoids and tumor models.
