MARTA ZAKRZEWSKA
Researcher
PROFILE
I have a PhD in Psychology (2022) and 10 years of research experience. My expertise includes research methods (designing experiments and study protocols), statistics, programming, academic and popular-science communication (writing and speaking). I am comfortable working cross functionally; I worked in multidisciplinary, international teams and supervised small groups of students. My academic career has equipped me for learning in new professional environments. I am looking for a career where I can engage in meaningful projects, in which I can apply my transferable skills of project management, data analysis, supervision and team work.
