Biosketch

I completed a M.Sc in Biochemistry from the Faculty of Medicine of Université de Montréal, Canada, working on the intracellular interactions of polycystin-1 in ADPKD in the group of Dr Marie Trudel at the Montreal Clinical Research Institute. I then enrolled in a PhD in Integrative Molecular Medicine at the University of Zurich, Switzerland, in the group of Prof Olivier Devuyst. I aimed to understand the pathogenic mechanisms in ADTKD-UMOD. My desire to pursue translational research in CKD led me to join the group of Dr Fabiola Terzi in January 2023. I now focus on the molecular pathways involved in ADPKD progression by using established mouse models and a urine biobank of ADPKD patients.
