Welcome Jacob and Daria

We are thrilled to welcome Jacob Kæstel-Hansen and Daria Sels to the lab this Summer. 

Jacob joins us as a post-doc with a Novo-Nordisk Foundation Post-doctoral Fellowship, having just completed his PhD at the University of Copenhagen in nanoscience and machine learning. During his PhD, Jacob developed a number of new computational tools for analysis of microscopy movies and trajectories using machine learning and other approaches and Jacob will continue in this vein here applying his expertise to understand the 3D genome. Welcome Jacob!

Daria joins us for her Master's thesis as part of her studies at the University of Brussels. Daria will be working with Michele on understanding distal gene regulation in the context of neuronal development. Welcome Daria!
