Prof. Neva Caliskan
Über
Neva Caliskan studierte Molekularbiologie und Genetik an der Middle East Technical University in Ankara (Türkei) und arbeitete 2005 als Gastwissenschaftlerin am Europäischen Laboratorium für Molekularbiologie (EMBL) in Heidelberg. 2009 machte sie ihren Masterabschluss an der International Max Planck Research School for Molecular Biology (Göttingen). Nach Abschluss ihrer Doktorarbeit (2013) arbeitete sie am Max-Planck-Institut für Biophysikalische Chemie in Göttingen, zunächst als Postdoc in der Abteilung für Physikalische Biochemie, von 2015 bis 2017 als Projektleiterin. Seit Januar 2018 leitet sie am HIRI die Nachwuchsgruppe „Rekodierungsmechanismen in Infektionen“. Zudem hat sie seit Mai 2018 eine Juniorprofessur an der Medizinischen Fakultät der Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg inne.
